indiewebring

From IndieWeb


Indiewebring is part of the great rebirth of of webrings powered by #IndieWeb technology that made 2018 the year of the webring and not the year of the microsub reader. Webrings allow ringbearers to create a network of blogs around a shared goal where readers can choose the next, previous, and random blog in the ring.

At IndieWeb Summit 2018, Marty McGuire built the IndieWebRing which is available on Glitch at https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/ or https://๐Ÿ•ธ๐Ÿ’.ws. The code can be found at https://glitch.com/~steady-sundial.

A directory of members of the webring can be found at https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/directory. It only includes those who have directly consented to being added to the directory and who have set up representative h-cards.
