Tag: Small Web

A collection of, at the moment, over 2000 blogs, spread across different topics.

This is a collection of “visual and hypertext media” by Jake. I really enjoy this idea of preserving websites and keeping your own small museum on the Internet. Maybe inspiring for some ideas.

This quite describes my thoughts exactly. I’ve had a “notes”, a “micro”, a whatever-you-want-to-call-microblogging-section, before. But I’ve come to peace with no longer having it and using Mastodon instead. It works for what I want, which is similar to the feelings described in the post.

A very nice and interesting directory of different webrings. According to Wikipedia:

A webring (or web ring) is a collection of websites linked together in a circular structure, and usually organized around a specific theme, often educational or social. They were popular in the 1990s and early 2000s, particularly among amateur websites.

Some of my favorites:

• XXIIVV Webring
• IndieWeb Webring
• Fediring
• The Forest

An article by Aral Balkan where they compare the state of the current web, the big web, with the web of the people, introducing the concept of “small web”.
