Welcome to September! Time for a new blogging challenge for the month. After some ideation, here’s my proposed September blogging challenge, on topics I find myself reading and posting about, with an emphasis on pragmatism:
The Web And Standards September Useful Posts blogging challenge
Or the #WASSUP challenge for short.
I really enjoyed the #Blaugust blogging challenge last month (31 posts ✅ — summary in another post), and not feeling a resonance with the two prior September challenges noted on the IndieWeb wiki, decided to come up with my own. Iterated on some ideas yesterday until arriving at WASSUP (yes, as a backronym, inspired somewhat by WHATWG which also has WHATNOT and WHATUP meetings).
Topic:
* Anything *useful* (features, tips) about open web standards, the open web as a whole, web browsers, or web services like search engines.
Hashtags:
* #WASSUP #WASSUP2026
Similar to Blaugust:
* Overall goal: 30 posts during the month of September (1 per day if you wish, or double/triple-up to get ahead or catch-up)
UPDATE: Awards for numbers of posts:
* 1 ⭐️ Starter. Congrats on starting the challenge!
* 5 ✨ Weekly Tipster. Post once per week, or at least 5 times for the duration.
* 8 🕸 Weekends Weaver. Post every weekend day, or at least that same number, 8 times.
(Thanks to James for this suggestion!)
* 22 ❇️ Weekdays Wizard. Post every weekday, or at least that same number, 22 times.
* 30 💠 Superbly Useful. Post at least 30 times during the month.
All self-assessed and self-acknowledged. Use the award name, emoji, or both!
And that’s it.
If those are topics you already blog about, great, join in using the hashtags and share what you find useful about them!
Otherwise, take a look at how you frequently use the Web, and post what you have found useful, especially the most useful for you.
Blog clever tips about how you have made better use of the Web, web browsers, search engines etc.
If you’re a web developer or designer, share what you find most useful about web standards, your choice, either in their entirety or of individual features, like HTML elements, attributes, CSS properties, Selectors, DOM features, WebAPIs, standard media formats on the web, etc.
Let’s see what positive pragmatic things we can share with each other about the web and how it works in practice.

I don't need another #bloggingchallenge - I'm already doing #100daysToOffload (publish 100 posts over a year, currently on track at 23 over the past 2 months assuming any new or substantially rewritten page on my site counts, not just the ones on the reverse chronological feed). But I appreciate the wordplay in the name #Blaugust (publish daily and/or 31 posts during August).

There doesn't seem to be a daily theme or anything, though, so anything I write next month would count for both...

Ich habe eine Idee aus dem Englischen in die deutsche Blogosphäre als #Blogparade geholt: "Was sind die ältesten Dinge, die Du besitzt?“
Falls Ihr auch liebgewordene alte Dinge habt, postet Sie mit #AlteDingehttps://www.arminhanisch.de/2026/01/die-aeltesten-dinge/
Danke an @82mhz für de Inspiration und Deinen Text!
And „Thanks a lot!“ to Thomas Rigby @hryggrbyr, yours is the first post I found. Hope you like this #BloggingChallenge going multi-lingual.

What do centuries-old stones, a self-winding watch and child's sock have in common?
Such time capsules often hide in our cupboards: lost treasures, family heirlooms, old diaries or dry pressed flowers. It is not their monetary value that matters, but the stories they tell.
After reading similar posts from @AlexWolfe, @daj and @hryggrbyr, I started to think of my own list.

Looking for a blog challenge?
Here's one: go back in time and make a collage of articles that were written on this day/week/month.Here's an example of what it can look like: 🍂
