Random Geek in limboMar 31, 2024

The eldest among us remember the First Web, before search engines were Good Actually. They used secret magics to make sense of the chaos that was the First Web.

Site directories.

Web rings.

Home pages linking to trusted sites.

Homework and jello shooter recipes study notes.

Now that the Search Engines have fallen it is time to bring those ancient tools back, for ourselves and the youngest among us who never knew the First Web.

@randomgeek that would be nice except that the homepages, the destinations, no longer exist. If we create a new ring, what is it gonna link to? Amazon.com? Walmart.com? Target.com? The web has changed because the web has changed.

@spacerog @randomgeek Well, make yourself a site. It's not rocket science, though it does take a bit of knowledge.
