hey! this is the first microblog and/or tumblr i have celebrated here, weird!? not only do i love their tumblry/microblog, but i love love love their podcast starring weekly, none other than a frog. hop on in and scroll on through this fascinating frog blog (take a listen to the podcast too 🎧): https://weeklyfrogpod.tumblr.com/ ↗ cozy times on the lily pad.
if you have been following me for a while now, you might have gotten the idea that i am a fan of simple and minimal sites. i try to pretend that i am a pragmatic utilitarian type person, alas, i am a hoarder and maximalist by nature. that might be why i am drawn towards minimalist sites. but i digress, and present to you, yet another lean, clean, mean blogging scene: matt marshall's personal site…
here is an epic, i mean really epic, personal blog by joel chrono . joel lives in a state of mexico about 1000km north of me. but if i were ever to meet him in the flesh, i would likely start by giving him a loving "órale cabrón" type greeting and a bow or offer an embarrassingly awkward high-five that accidentally turns into a fist bump on my end (fist to palm / palm to face 🫢😅). really, i…
pinewind, a blog by kwist, gives us a calm space to enjoy the jots and thoughts of a highly interesting Japan-based hobbyist, enthusiast, and multipotentialite writer. i can't decide if my favorite post is his thought-log on blogging or his post on personal colour pallets . both posts show the breadth of kwist's interests. he considers his blog more of a garden. i have certainly appreciated…
a blog doesn't need to look like a blog. even as a blogger and a reader of blogs, i don't know if i can pinpoint what a blog even is? i mean, sure, there is a definition: a blog (a truncation of "weblog") is an informational website consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries also known as posts. posts are typically displayed in reverse chronological order so that the most…
text/plain blog is a plain text blog by software engineer dan q . it is an "experimental blog. because who said that blogs had to be written in html?" if you know a little about me, you know i love experimental blogs. i also love low-tech solutions on high-tech things. as dan notes in his text is enough post: sometimes you DON'T need HTML. Sometimes using ASCII and nothing else... is sufficient.…
it is a history book, a timeline, a newsletter, a blog, an archive, a course. it is many things, and all of them wonderful. take some time to check out jay hoffman's ongoing history of the internet project, nearly a decade in the making. this project tracks the trajectory of the internet and internet-related things via two monthly posts. jay's dedication is impressive. check it out, it should keep…
i first encountered robin sloan 's work and blog during the pandemic when i found his spring '83 protocol described at length in this blog post . his protocol later inspired me to create the grove experiment over at 404commons.com . like me, he is interested in a non-linear exploration of the internet without feeds or timelines. this intersection between our interests is why he has stayed on my…
hundred rabbits and i share a similar philosophy , which is how i first found them through our interest circles. they are: an artist collective that documents low-tech solutions with the hope of building a more resilient future. we live and work aboard a 10 m sailboat named pino in remote parts of the world to learn more about how technology degrades beyond the shores of the western world. while i…
