Welcome to the home of Noah Brier. I'm the co-founder of Variance and general internet tinkerer. Most of my writing these days is happening over at Why is this interesting?, a daily email full of interesting stuff. This site has been around since 2004. Feel free to get in touch. Good places to get started are my Framework of the Day posts or my favorite books and podcasts. Get in touch.

While I’m quite flattered, I’m a bit confused as to how I landed at 29 in Wikio’s most influential blogs. According to their rankings NoahBrier.com is more influential than Consumerist (34), Google Blog (35), Scripting News (46), kottke (51), xkcd.com (63) and Gothamist (77), amongst many others. I didn’t think much of it until I saw that The Observer’s 50 most powerful blogs references a Wikio ranking in its writeup of Basic Thinking.
