So I'm having a very large, very slow clearout.
I want to get rid of my stuff with minimal use of evil corporate platforms so I'm trying out listing it on my own website.
My sale site is here: https://epic-attic.co.uk
I've got about 35 items listed so far, maybe 100 or so more to come, once I've taken photos and so on.
This is a real #smallweb project! You have to email me to buy/claim stuff there's no checkout and no tracking or scripts of any sort. EDIT( I just remembered there is one js script to run the image gallery, but it is entirely local and doesn't send or request data anywhere.)
I think we need a hashtag for selling and giving away stuff in the UK (for non business stuff)
What about #SecondHandUK ?
I thought ukForSale initially but that sounds like a political statement.
Is anyone else selling off their excess stuff in the UK? Should we start a #webring?
Webring Wednesday #22
| The Book Ring
The Book Ring is a cozy, bookish webring for readers, writers, and literary dreamers. Each member site is a unique window into someone’s personal library; be it filled with reviews, writing projects, fanfiction, or musings on favorite genres. It’s like getting to know people through their shelves, and it’s a warm invitation to wander from one book-loving site to the next.
The ring is part of a larger online library space and includes little snapshots of what members are currently reading, which makes discovering new titles extra fun. Whether you’re a fantasy lover, a historical fiction nerd, or just someone who enjoys curling up with a good story, The Book Ring is a comforting place to connect with fellow bibliophiles.

Through posting about some of these I learned about a network working to created a unified, artist-centric social network for music discovery

My Gaymers+ #Webring got SOME attention on here, and is taking off on Tumblr (I literally paid to Boost it )… but no one has contacted me about joining, yet.
This took way too much time and effort for me to just… quietly delete it, in a few weeks' time.

Many thanks to @lorenzosmusic for having me on their podcast! I've never done anything like that before, hopefully I managed to not sound too much like an idiot!
If you want to hear me talking about stuff like the #Faircamp #Webring, #FairTradeMusicFriday, Image2Midi and of course #BonkWave and #NotBonkWave, you can find it hosted by the lovely @mixtape folks here:

There's a bit about about Key 13 too...
got to add @caffeine's https://caffeine.wiki back to my merveilles #88x31 #webring and updated the selection style while I was there...
Joining a webring feels like having neighbors
someday I’ll introduce myself to my webring neighbors
I have once again updated the mini 88x31 #merveilles #webring with the newest banner havers
Looking to join a #webring.
The @TexasObserver might not have been the very, very first of the news teams to get on the web, but... 1998 is still pretty early in my book :P They even tout their trusted progressive webring, though they don't call it that. Was it called that back then? I dunno. My memories of the 1990s internet are hazy at best.
@kobilacroix well, you csn find some #WebRings here too.
Well the #Faircamp #webring ticks three of those boxes :
1. Each site is created by the musicians themselves to share their music, using an excellent tool developed by @freebliss
2. Most Faircamp sites have an RSS feed enabled
3. It's a web ring
We just need someone to create a zine now!
