Remember Browsing?
My first homepage wasn't a search engine. It was a page some
kid in my class put together in GeoCities — mostly dead
links, plus one that worked, straight to a MIDI of the Mortal
Kombat theme. You'd click around, land on something weird,
bookmark it, and probably never go back. Nobody was measuring
how long you stayed, because nobody could, and nobody was
trying to.
This is my attempt at bringing a little of that back.
Everything here got added because I looked at it myself and
thought it was worth your time, not because some model decided
you'd click it. There's no algorithm behind this page. There's
just me, picking things.
The Rules
- I pick every link myself. No bots, no "recommended for
you."
- If a site runs trackers, analytics, or cookies, it
doesn't get linked. Full stop.
- This page doesn't pull in outside scripts or fonts
either. What loads is what you see.
- No infinite scroll, no autoplay, no popup asking if
you'd like to be notified about more popups.
Why It Looks Like This
I didn't pick this look just to be cute about the 90s. Back
then, pages looked like this — plain tables, default
fonts, borders you could actually see — because the web
was built to be read, not measured. Keeping that look around is
mostly a way of keeping myself honest about what this page is
for.
