Jeremy Herve<blockquote><p>I’d love to get a list of old school bloggers who are still at it. How would you go about that?</p><p><a href="http://scripting.com/2025/03/15.html#a135901" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Building a list of old school bloggers</a></p></blockquote><p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="u-url mention" href="https://mastodon.social/@davew" target="_blank">@<span>davew</span></a> After all these years, I think «&nbsp;webrings&nbsp;» and «&nbsp;blogrolls&nbsp;» is still the right answer to that question. Bloggers manually curating lists of other bloggers still feels like the most trustworthy source of inspiration for me. </p><p>Just like jumping from one Wikipedia article to another to learn new things can be fun, jumping from one site to another in a webring can be just as fun I think!</p><p>As an alternative, Kagi also recently created a «&nbsp;Small Web&nbsp;» list of active bloggers and content creators. I’ve been pretty happy with it.
