Marginalia Site Explorer Rabbit Hole Generator
Some of this has previously been available in a somewhat inaccessible format. I've recently been working on a redesign of the marginalia search website.
Marginalia Site Explorer Rabbit Hole Generator launched on December 13, 2024 with 5 votes and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.

Marginalia – Exploration Mode2022 · search.marginalia.nu · ▲236I've been a bit obsessed with the idea of flipping through the internet a bit like you would a magazine, of undirected browsing as a discovery mechanism, and I think I'm approaching something that's beginning to feel pretty fun. The link at the top will return results out of a pool of approximately 10,000 domains, you can refresh to get new ones.

I Built a Site That Curates Weird YouTube Rabbit Holes Daily2025 · yourabbit.com · ▲59I built Yourabbit.com — a site that curates hand-picked YouTube rabbit holes grouped by themes like quirky psychology, obscure tech, weird facts, and binge-worthy oddities.

I’m also pairing videos with custom summaries and commentary (using AI), and would love feedback from the HN crowd on: Content model (too wide? not specific…
Turn any website into a knowledge base for LLMs2024 · embedding.io · ▲305I built this tool because I wanted a way to just take a bunch of URLs or domains, and query their content in RAG applications. It takes away the pain of crawling, extracting content, chunking, vectorizing, and updating periodically. I'm curious to see if it can be useful to others. I meant to launch this six months ago but life got in the way...

Been messing with cosine similarity and decided to try calculating nearest neighbors over the entire link graph for the marginalia search engine. Turns out that you can just bruteforce that in a day or two. And the results are pretty good. One drawback is that depending on if you're looking at an older website, a lot of the links are dead. The deduplication isn't great either.
