Readers Wanted

Readers Wanted

Every single person in this room is busy creating beautiful websites. But if we aren’t willing to get off Instagram or Twitter, or whatever stream possesses us, and spend some time exploring the rich web worlds that we’ve all created, then those worlds will be unexplored. And their richness will be emptiness.

One weekend camping with your friends is a more deeply human, connected experience than 100 years of following them on Instagram or Twitter.

  • The thrall of the stream
  • Feedly
  • Marcel Duchamp’s Valise (Romantic Vapor)
  • Joseph Cornell Box’s
  • Andy Warhol’s Time Capsules
  • Listening to Stone
  • MxM

Community

It’s about building community. Tame your obsession with empty likes & follows and seek out a modest-sized, supportive community where you actually give as much as you get.

Webrings?

Remember Webrings? (indie web)
