Oh yes, I finally decided to launch a newsletter. It was inevitable. I read many. I think I could write one. And then one fine day the inertia gave way.

Why did that day become the fine day? I'll spill the beans in due course.

Why a Newsletter?

Frankly, creating a curation-based newsletter is low-hanging fruit for a reluctant writer like me. Lazily leveraging my own YouTube vice. Silently hoping this initiative would nudge me to watch more awesome stuff. And you get to reap the rewards. πŸ˜‰

A virtuous cycle. Flywheel.

What is Oculus Nautilus all about?

A weekly newsletter where I intend to share the best edutainment content I come across on YouTube.

Oculus Nautilus - Revue

Why YouTube?

2B+ users. 1B+ daily watch hours. YT is the entertainment plaza of the Internet World. It has something for everyone.

I spent countless hours looking for cheap thrills and occasionally fishing for the lesser-explored gems. Evading familiar traps and combating the recency-biased recommendation algorithm. Pleasure and Pain 😁

What's in the name?

Oculus like the Rift is like an eye. Peering, Looking. πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ

Nautilus has naval origins. Exploratory. Navigational. πŸ—ΊοΈ

Both defined my YouTube-ian quest. Indiana Jones. Captain Nemo. Et al. Hunting for the hidden gems. The best deals in the Plaza de Internet.
