  10. <h2>The Webring, like we are in the 2000s.</h2>
  11. <p>The <b>webring</b> is a directory of neighbor websites and portfolios.</p>
  12. <p>This is an attempt to <b>inspire artists and developers to create and maintain their own personal website</b>, and share traffic organically among each other. The ring's aim is to promote the creation of hand crafted diaries, wikis, bookmarks and portfolios.</p>
  13. <p>You can view the full directory <a href="https://webring.xxiivv.com" target="_blank">here</a>, or more info on how to join the network <a href="https://github.com/XXIIVV/webring" target="_blank">here</a>. Many of the webring participants were members who helped with the development of the P2P social network <a href="rotonde.html">Rotonde</a>.</p>
  14. <q>The internet is a utility world for me now. It is efficient and all-encompassing. It is not very much fun.</q>

  16. <p>Apparently, someone in the 1950s also came up with the webring icon by <a href="http://www.logobook.com/logo/offset-druck-lausanne" target="_blank">rotating the number 6</a> three times. It's a coincidence, the webring logo was meant to be a three way roundabout to indicate that the members of the ring share traffic with each other.</p>
