# growing serendipity



👋 Hi, I'm Cameron!

Welcome to my [[digital garden|about.digital-garden]]. This my online home for incubating ideas. I aim to help future readers (including myself) grow snippets into [serendipidata](https://www.serendipidata.com/posts/what-is-serendipidata).

The structure evolves often. You are welcome to browse. Here's [[why I started |about.motivations]] tending a digital garden.


## 🧠 currently thinking about

I paused my public "now" log in 2023 as I was investing more in my internal/private writing practice.

As of May 2024, I am investigating rebooting "learning in public" with a more focused "TIL" log.
