David A. Kennedy reminds us to “be a good link”. Don’t be a medium or substack. Share and connect thoughtfully on the web.

Just realized something: emoji domains aren’t just cute : they’re mnemonic, universal, and language-independent. 🌍

We’re basically rediscovering hieroglyphs for the digital age: symbols everyone can “read” without translation.

Maybe the web is looping back to its most ancient form of communication: meaning through icons.

DCKIM HW HTML DRAFTING PROJECT ay Top-Notch, Open-Source, at Canadian. Ang pag-aaral na gamitin ito ay mabilis na may pitong tutorial na handa para sa iyo, na natapos sa loob ng programa. Hands-on, in-action, ito ang pinakamahusay na paraan upang matuto tungkol sa HTML. Madali na ngayon ang pagsulat ng iyong sariling website! Kaya, tumuon sa masining at nakasulat na mga aspeto. Ang mga iyon ay mas mahalaga pa rin!

Book review - The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi - https://www.sfbookshelf.com/review/scalzi-john-kaiju-preservation-society.php

A fun, lighthearted story of enormous monsters who could destroy the world, and why they need our help.

This is me re-starting reviewing SF books on my own site after a long break. I guess this makes it an #IndieWeb site. I'll copy over my handful of reviews from Goodreads at some point. It feels good to write something for my own site again.

So, in addition to posting cute cat pics, I also have an independent website where I blog about various nerdy things for fun.

My latest post is on "botsplaining," a phenomenon that thankfully doesn't seem to be a thing in the Fediverse! Consider giving it a read, if you're interested.

Oh, and if you do drop by, don't forget to boop the cat! :bongoCat:

I've been writing this article for a while, and it's finally ready to read.

"Diversifying your search engine portfolio"

https://cryptography.dog/blog/diversifying-your-search-engine-portfolio/

tl;dr making the most of modern browsers' ability to configure and dynamically choose from arbitrary search engines, and cutting off a bit of Google's ad revenue in the process

Any personal website owners out here? I'm in need of some new blogs to follow. So if you feel like sharing something you've made or something you like with me, please do.

After adding real function to the main menu or Start menu on my blog a couple of days ago, I continued updateing the design yesterday evening. I added status bars for the windows to improve nostalgic aesthetics and functionality at the same time.

Fun fact: the menu was implemented without JS purely with HTML + CSS.

I also overcame the Android & Safari sizing annoyances by using dynamic viewport height (dvh) instead of viewport height (vh) in the CSS.

1 week until Front End Study Hall 38 - we meet and talk and hash out code and try to solve and understand whatever folks bring with them: HTML-wise, CSS-wise, UX-wise, code-wise, web-wise. Come on down and spread the word. https://events.indieweb.org/2025/10/front-end-study-hall-038-4OLwGTLJFj0b #IndieWeb #WebDev #HTML

This one's about the politics of RSS, programming my own RSS Reader, and why I'm sharing my favorite feeds in a blogroll.

Anyway, my new website is up! The first blog post is written and I've got some of my essays up again.

It's very basic right now, and I'm it will undoubtedly change (and hopefully improve) with time. But I'm happy to have a place on the web again.

Big news from Riley Testut about AltStore PAL, integrating with the fediverse, and new investment to grow the platform and give back to other open web tools. Very cool, congrats to everyone involved!

One of the biggest lies big tech ever told was that coding websites is difficult. It's not. If you can use a computer you could probably learn everything you need to get started with HTML and CSS in a couple hours

Now the web is full of big, boring sites with all sorts of tracking tech and annoying pop-ups... But I digress. I'm not here to write another small web manifesto. Just know you (yes, you!) can easily do this stuff for yourself.
