The Indieweb

the indie-web

The Indieweb is like the old internet. Untethered. Disparate. Fun. It's about being in control of my presence. It's about not letting big tech control how you post, who you follow, and what you're allowed to share. It's about community blogs, not walled blogs.

Building it out

I recently learned about indiemarks, and build my own checklist as I indiewebify my site.

Here it is: [[indiemark]]

RelMe

rel=me html tags show ownership of sites, and help verify that you are who you say you are.

<ul>
  <li><a href="https://github.com/USERNAME" rel="me">@USERNAME on Github</a></li>
  <li><a href="https://twitter.com/USERNAME" rel="me">Twitter</a></li>
  <li><a href="mailto:[email protected]" rel="me">[email protected]</a></li>
</ul>
