Attention Media ≠ Social Networks: https://susam.net/attention-media-vs-social-networks.html
I’m curious… If you have a personal website or blog, do you share it with your “in-person” close friends and family? Why or why not?

It's been 17 years since I made my first website, so I'm resharing an article I wrote back in 2024 to encourage others to make their own.

I'm looking for references, concepts, projects, research paper. (∗𖧹𖼓𖧹∗)
I want to explore the intersection of nostalgic web spaces, personalization and social virtual gathering. What comes to my mind is neocities but I'm sure there's more! Just don't know where to look. thank u! <3
Hey, you, reader:
Ever been browsing someone's blog, website, repo -- even their social web profile -- and thought to yourself "Wow, that's really neat. I love what they did here!"
Consider telling them! Someone on here made a post a while back encouraging people to do just that, and I've tried to make a conscious habit of contacting the authors of neat little indie and smolweb sites.
Email, guestbook, comment; whatever it might be, consider reaching out somehow to share your appreciation. You might be surprised at how much it makes their day.
You might also be surprised to discover how much making their day makes yours, too.

I'm so tired. People, I am not interested in reading *blogs* generated with claude, gemini or chatgpt. No, not even ones proofread by AI. Do it yourself. I do not wish to even accidentally click on "one-shotted" dummy projects. Don't show me your AI-generated analysis of anything. Above all, I do not wish to see images/artwork someone prompt created.
I value real content, with all its good and bad quirks, from actual human beings.
Somebody please normalize auto-tagging of AI generated content across all formats - text, images and code so I can blanket ban them from my personal computer.
This is a plead for help I never thought I'll have to make.
