Uncommon Stack

Hey there! I'm Kent Gigger, and welcome to The Uncommon Stack—my digital workbench of experiments, late-night ideas, and rabbit holes worth chasing.
I write about startups, security, SEO, blockchain, product thinking, affiliate marketing, and anything else that fuels my
obsession with building cool (and sometimes weird) stuff.
No social media nonsense here—just
honest experiments, occasional face-plants, and lessons learned the hard way. Grab a coffee and stick around!
