If you're using #octothorpes to follow #weirdweboctober via RSS, you may have noticed the RSS feeds weren't linking to sites properly. This was a casualty of our API refactor, but it should be fixed now. API improvements about to be deployed as well.
Hold tight folks looks like our DB server is having an outage. #octothorpes Might have happened while I was actively writing a grant to support stronger infrastructure, among other things. #irony

Announcing our first version release and a new docs site

@nim here with an account of teaching a room full of people to make art sites with basic HTML in the former back room of a Lady Footlocker in 2025. https://ideastore.dev/blog/The-Rad-Web/ The radness was greatly enhanced by code and work of @glitchdotcom @stefan @spencerchang and @eleventy #indieweb #webart #ladyfootlocker #octothorpes
Teaching the Rad Web -

Earlier this month I spent an awesome afternoon in the back room of Virtua Gal, in the Lloyd Center Mall, teaching a great group of friends and strangers how to edit their own websites. This was an experiment to see if anyone was interested, how possible it would be to go from 0 to Website in an afternoon, and if it, like, mattered.

Octothorpe Protocol - Linked Site Search Using Hashtags

https://octothorp.es/about
"Octothorpes are hashtags and backlinks that can be used on regular websites, connecting pages across the open internet, regardless of where they're hosted. A page that's tagged or hashtagged will show you the pages on a single domain with the same tag, but a page that's octothorped will show you the pages with the same tag across an unlimited number of domains."
