The universe has been aligned ever since I posted about my social media detox. With my new-found intention to start blogging more, I’ve been going down rabbit holes. 🐰

It started with (re-)discovering Neocities and finding cool internet concepts like a /now page.

It was 2004 when I first got embroiled in web development, making fan-sites for Habbo Hotel. Which led to me building communities, which then evolved to tooling and open-source.

I was following the trends closely, I was there when microformats and the concept of the indieweb got born. I however did not fully understand it as a teenager. I was just curious about the concept of data aggregation with microformats and getting better SEO in Google.
