A shameless plug, but if you like HN and email, my side-project, http://www.hackernewsletter.com/, might be worth a look. Rolling past 50k subscribers this month.

My fear is that I have a different taste than you. How do you curate it?

That is 100% fair, but not an easy question to answer!

I curate by hand using a custom tool that helps me search/filter articles and basically find a mix of things I like along with things that subscribers tend to click on. I tend to avoid "click-bait" type articles with little substance and try to get a good mix of things that were popular with things that should of stayed on the home page more. I've been doing this for seven years now, so I feel like I have something that works... but ultimately you'll have to see if it fits what you're looking for. :)

I've been subscribed for a while, and I think this approach works great! There's plenty of links and sections to click on.

Ah. I think you are the reason my blog was slammed all of a sudden a few days after I hit the front page.

Ha, yep! That was a great post and generated about 2,000 clicks.
