Have some short essays coming up on internet memes and art - the first is about Anna Haifisch's The Life I Always Longed For, and how yearning can be an emotion that carries you through to a new life

I’ve handwritten an RSS feed! thanks to @everest for the instructions and inspiration. What a cool and simple little bit of technology.

This has enabled me to write blog posts directly into my little #HTML website - I found it surprisingly fun and easy! It’s cool to be able to tweak little things and it’s obviously so blazingly fast. My love for HTML grows more every time I use it <3

I've gone in on Blaugust (https://nerdgirlthoughts.game.blog/2026/07/15/blaugust-2026-is-coming/) and aiming at 31 posts between my https://vanderwal.net/random/ blog and https://personalinfocloud.com blog.

My gauntlet to myself is at: https://vanderwal.net/random/entrysel.php?blog=2153

Wanting to start blogging, get back in the habit, or post a bit more with focus join on in.

I was thinking back to when I started making @davesmapper way back when, and it stemmed from finding the tiles created by @dysonlogos on StumbleUpon and having an OCD moment and wanting to fix some small bugs on the little web page that had been created to randomly serve the tiles.

That got me thinking — I miss the old web. I know #IndieWeb and #Neocities exist, but I miss the magic of a button that would bring you to random websites to explore.

30 minutes. 🚀

The idea underneath all of it: the server was never the blog. Your folder is. Build, deploy, comments — each one is just a script you can open and read.

v1.0 at midnight. See you in the morning.

No database. No gems. No admin. Just ./blog.sh

In a similar spirit as /now pages, there's a movement to add a /friends page on your personal website to link to other personal sites, strengthening the human IndieWeb in the age of AI. Here's a directory of people with /friends pages: slashfriends.org

Really digging brolly.sh for quick weather checks. If only it had RSS feeds.

4 hours to v1.0. 🚀

./blog.sh reaches v1.0 at midnight, and a whole new site goes live with it.

Tonight's first number: the whole site builds in 1.9 seconds. A page is 54 kB of HTML and 555 lines of JavaScript, and the entire site makes exactly one external request — our own analytics, which the site says out loud.

No database. No gems. No admin. Just ./blog.sh

I have a page on my site about setting up webmentions (https://reillyspitzfaden.com/wiki/tutorials/webmention-tutorial/)

People have seemed to find it useful (I keep getting webmentions about people using it!) and I hope it can be useful for others too

Today is Send a Friend a Webmention day — here's my note about that: https://reillyspitzfaden.com/notes/2026/07/send-a-friend-a-webmention-day-2026/

#IndieWeb #Webmentions

i love the type of indieweb/web revival people where they completely isolate themselves by not using social media and solely relying on their own website, their fedi account (or instance), irc/xmpp and email i should prolly do that too but i am getting too used to social media

Hours away now. 🚀

./blog.sh hits v1.0 in the morning — new site and all.

A small taste: the whole site builds in 1.9 seconds and loads exactly one external request. Ours.

No database. No gems. No admin. Just ./blog.sh

See you at sunrise.
