I admittedly haven't been doing much at all for this month because this month is crazy for me so I have not really been holding myself to it, but I figured that it would probably be a good idea to say something about this post considering my personal website is a linklist, and the background theory of why I think I need a linklist and why I generally advocate for everyone to have at the very least a list of links is because of the reasoning laid out in the essay The New Yahoo. Basically the writer explains that web search as we know it right now is unstable, so links to websites that are useful are being lost to SEO and now AI at a really alarming speed, and really the only tool most of us as individuals with little resources have is to save links. So that's kind of the philosophy behind my website, Punk The Frog's Linklist, though me adding in my own writing to archive is the side project that's also included on the site now.
A new thing that I've started that I have not been updating as much as I originally intended (but who does, with these projects) is a running articles I'm reading page, because while the 'useful resources' are nice, a whole lot of the internet is structured in the form of articles which are not quite so easily classifiable because articles are kind of meant to be ephemeral. So in this case having a disorganized running list of just articles is kind of a way to respect their ephemeral nature, maybe. Or at least, there's stuff that's interesting that if put on more permanent resource pages will eventually just be clutter, but I still want to link. If that makes sense.
Now that I'm thinking about it I think I want to link to more of the artists and writers I follow on social media, in addition to the resource focus. I am really not sure I will have time this month, however.
