My Favorite Items I Found for 2023

Note (2024-02-14) - An early version of ChatGPT wrote the below text more than a year ago. I'm leaving it as is for historical reasons. At the time I gave it a small amount of context about my favorite new tools & told it to write a small blog post for me. Looking back I think I was awestruck by what it generated & overlooked the difference in tone & language.
