#classicweb — Public Fediverse posts

So, Angelfire still exists. Just on a whim, I gave them $3.25 on a card that's about to expire, to see if I can still build a website. Sadly, it won't publish. But I want to call your attention to the Cooking section of the classic member directory. All three sites are still there! All done in that homey recipe-site vibe.

*shivers with nostalgia*

I wonder where these ladies are now.

Archived by @internetarchive and unearthed by @ricmac's @classicweb via Craig Burton's linkback to Dave Pollard's 'How to Save the World' blog, this is the original link from where Dave initially posted his flowchart of a 'pretentious and presumptuous attempt to document what bloggers have learned, without any formal instruction, to do every day.. and then a description of what's needed to make blogs a medium for real conversation.'

It's 2003 strong, but some of this stuff still applies, man https://web.archive.org/web/20031202024110/http://blogs.salon.com/0002007/2003/07/30.html#a346

Alex Cabal talks about keeping Standard Ebooks on the Classic Web:

"But while the company hosting our VPS is technically a cloud service—admittedly, our desire to be self-sufficient ends just before owning bare metal in a rented rack—we don’t rely on any other 3rd-party cloud service like AWS or Azure.

Part of the reason is because just glancing at the dizzying list of AWS acronyms and initialisms makes me light-headed and woozy."
