💙 Flashback Friday #9 💙 – Xanga

Before IG and TikTok, there was Xanga; the grungy, glittery home of teen angst in the early 2000s. This blogging platform catered to expressive youth who wanted to share their thoughts, post surveys, and obsessively tweak their layouts with custom HTML and glitter graphics.

It may not be much but it's honest work 😼

I'm excited about this new redesign of powRSS on desktop! I'm using this small app to discover more of the #indieweb.

Thanks to everyone who has sent me their RSS feeds, the directory is growing nicely!!

New entry in #curated #creators on https://tube.inlinestyle.it/ we decided to surface the work of @trom as they have a great vlog on #vanlife

#peertube and the #fediverse have a lot of #technology content, and it's great to be able to surface the gems on other topics too.

This project is a culmination of years of learning the hard way. Ya know, the opposite of vibe coding. Reading doc pages and MDN for fun, consuming IRL tech books eagerly, toiling on half-finished side-projects, and tinkering, tinkering, tinkering.

Now all of it comes together, and I've built something intricate, but not complex. From the infrastructure to the CSS it has been done my way! Something where there was nothing. It's a good feeling.

Here is a trinket, a symbol of my affection for the newly-named-in-my-brain indie web.

i tried to find the source of a song that plays on my mother's father's old website by searching its file name. this page has a file with the same name but it's not the same file. still, neat page! lots of midi songs.

I wrote an article for the inaugural issue of Good Internet magazine by @xandra et al!

I describe a conceptual model for thinking about the construction of sites, and in particular thinking about what you’re going to start with and how you’re going to transform that into the final site: https://goodinternetmagazine.com/site-creation-as-content-transformation/

If you’re thinking about starting or rewriting a #smallweb #indieweb #blogging site, this is for you.

My next personal website task will be to post notes to my website and syndicate to Mastodon and maybe Bluesky. #OwnYourData #IndieWeb #POSSE

Continuing to remix my own site with my own interests, today during the #IndieWeb Europe/London call I removed my blogroll page from WordPress and made it dynamic with #Rss & #Atom #Feeds . Also pull in latest 2 posts from folks I read. Fun exercise!~if only for me.
