'What Else Is On?' is a collection of things from elsewhere on the web that I want to share.

🎵 PUT THIS ON


📚 READ THIS

Touching on something I've definitely felt in the past, Frills writes about eschewing professionalism and perfection, and keeping your website/blog personal to you.

+It Doesn't Have to Be Perfect - Nicky Flowers
A similar sentiment to Frills' post from Nicky Flowers, written appropriately succinctly.

+You Should Blog - keith.is
Similar succinct sentiments following our theme from Keith here, featuring some quick advice and great options for getting a blog going.

+Everyone Should Blog - Xandra
Some evangelizing from Xandra about trying to get more non-technical folks to make their own websites, the challenges involved, and about the saturation of personal websites from folks in the industry that just end up being about code.

+Where Have All the Websites Gone? - fromjason.xyz
Some philosophic waxing from Jason here about what's been happening to the web, and the scourge of the For You page.

A great resource for anyone looking to get into making their own website, with tons of reading, examples, guides, and links out to other resources.


📺 WATCH THIS

+What stationery can you get with a JetPens $25 Gift Card? - YouTube
Ok so this is basically a commercial for the office supply and stationery site JetPens, but I honestly love their YouTube channel so much. They bring so much passion and personality to their videos. JetPens is cool.


🎮 PLAY THIS

+CrossSkitch - itch.io
Just a simple little cross-stitch simulator with chill tunes and satisfying sound effects. Available to play for free in your browser!


🌐 A GOOD WEBSITE

+Free Online Picross - liouh.com
I stumbled upon this page while browsing through sites on Neocities (a great way to find cool shit). It's just a simple Picross generator that someone built. If you're feeling the bug and need to take a break with a quick puzzle, look no further!


Thanks for reading! Til next time! 👋
