Curated Links

• Archive.Org

  Archives of all sorts of stuff. These are also the people behind the wayback machine which is a usefull tool to know.

• JustForFun.IO

  A list of interesting curated list of web projects. They are fun to play around with a bit.

• NeoCities.org

  There are a list of generally self-made static pages that people use are their personal blogs. Not locked into a specific platform or style, these pages have a very personal touch to them. The quality and topics range vastly from page to page. It's almost like browsing tumblr in a way. Below is a sub-list of pages I found at least mildly interesting.

  
  
  • Plasticdino

    An art and interest blog. I liked their reviews of Terrible dinosaure statues

  • Eldritchdata

    A personal page diving into topics of self-reliance, and technical security. Funnily enough, you must disable JavaScript in your browser to view this page.

  • Birds And Stars

    A pleasant to look at page. Has some links to try and help with mental health, but it tickles me that they have a page dedicated to different bedroomes as depicted in anime

  • AtomicGothic

    An artist that does pottery and has a unique artstyle. Their neocities page has a lot to explore. I've gotten a few of their cups and bowls over the last few years.

• Nekoweb

  Similar to Neocities, it's a indie web hosting service. They have some neat stuff like web tiles, or a whole zine!

• Melonking

  Responsible for my latest website iteration. They used to have a search engine for neocities and other blog sites that I was diving down. The search engine is gone, but there are other things here to look at. If you do want to search neocities, there is an official search on the neocities portal.

• Bogleech

  A big list of monsters and creepy crawlies and reviews/commentary on them. If you like monsters and such, definently take a look at this one.

• Cryptid Wiki

  As close to a universal bestiary as we'll likely get.

• SDF Public Access UNIX System

  I discovered these people when I was diving down a rabbit hole to see how the internet looked... pre-web. Here you can get a free Unix shell, interact with a BBS, and generally poke about now-archaic technologies and games. Update: They now also host a Lemmy instance and a Mastodon instancce.

• TextFiles.com

  This is a site dedicated to preserving older text files. It serves as a good example of what content could be found on old BBSs.

• Bake it Your Way

  A site with several pastry recipes.

• Dimden's Page

  A personal neocities-like page. Very cool useage of interactive javascript.

• AppleRankings

  A page with often comedic rankings for many varieties of apples.

• Weather.gov

  Get your weather forcast straight from the government without all the BS advertisements, pop ups, and other dystopic web-killing gizmos.

• Daniel Linssen's Page

  An indie game developer with several fun and unique games.

• The Luddite

  Very much a leftist blog. I was introduced to them by their article documenting their troubles getting one of their domains registered for Google's AdSense

• text/plain

  A blog from ericlaw. Found while troubleshooting an authentication issue in a browser.

• Blubberquark Software

  Blubberquark posts some interesting writeups on tumblr; mostly about tech, programming and games.

• Wiby Surprise

  Looking for more? Wiby is a search engine for smaller old-school style personal webpages.

• Single-Serving Sites

  A page with a catalog of sites that serve a single function. A good time killer to go down.

• Paul Dawkins Cheat Sheets

  I don't know Paul Dawkins but his cheat sheets got me through high school and I still periodically reference them. 10/10

• Foto Forensics

  A neat page that offers a free tool and some training to detect edited images. I suspect it could also help detect AI generated images.

  A badge to link back here. <a href="https://www.ziviz.net"><img alt="Visit ZiviZ.net" src="https://www.ziviz.net/r/ziviz.gif"></a>
