about

  

knowmad is a cultural filter that strives to provide the unusual and the very best from sources such as the New York Times, reddit, Slate, Flavorpill, the Washington Post, the Believer, the New Yorker, Paste, New York Magazine, the Economist, the Onion, as well as various other publications.  In addition, knowmad tweets thoughts, blogs ideas, and podcasts interesting alternative music.

Perhaps what makes us stand out from other filtering sites is we aren't just aiming for eye-candy and quick fixes, but, in some strange way, a quest for wisdom.  knowmad, then, aims to be an archive of a kind of "necessary" knowledge of the weird and the good so we can all grow together.  You may not always be able to get instant access to the cutting edge, but if it is worth it, it will be here soon enough.
