Here is what I worked on in November 2021:

Blog

The blog officially launched as a communication channel. New product announcements will also appear here.

While setting it up, I created a Hexo theme named Terminal: https://github.com/tinkink-co/hexo-theme-terminal. What you see is a terminal‑like interface—minimal and text focused.

As of September 2025, the blog has been merged into the main site at https://tink.ink/blog.

B2B Product Research

Some of this actually began in October. There are many excellent B2B products globally, each carving out its niche. Two notes:

Atlassian

An established vendor with widely known products: Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, etc. Most lines are performing well (judging by financials and stock performance). They also invest in workplace content—blogs & podcasts—covering productivity and management topics.

Vercel

A personal favorite. Their flagship product streamlines static site deployment. The first time I tried it I migrated the blog in about one minute—impressive developer experience.

They also steward popular open‑source projects (Next.js, Hyper, etc.), each thoughtful and polished—evidence of a creative culture.

One open question: long‑term monetization. Despite multiple funding rounds, profitability isn’t obvious. Paid plans exist, but likely limited conversion at this stage.

Tutorial Site

Added a few more articles in November, but traffic remains near zero. It needs both more substantive content and some distribution strategy.

Other & Summary

Considerable time also went into a new product (still under development). I’ll share details once it’s publicly launched.
