| | A few weeks ago, a co-founder of an AI firm called Simon Edwardsson blogged about a web browser project he had hacked together. | He’d created Spegal which lets users surf the net through the the text-only terminal. Most of the internet isn’t set up for text only-view, but Edwardsson tapped a new tool: generative AI. | Edwardsson’s browser ingests a web page, puts it into Google Gemini 2.5 Pro Lite, and spits out something out something formatted in Markdown that will work in the browser. | But the changes to each web page didn’t just stop at formatting. Edwardsson also included instructions so that recipe webpages would be reformatted with the actual recipe at the front, removing the long pre-ambles. | What Edwardsson had done | Spegel ("mirror" in Swedish) lets you explore web content through personalized views using your own prompts. A single page can have multiple views, maybe one simplifying everything down to ELI5 or another highlighting key actions. It's entirely up to you and your prompting skills. |
