The Human-made sites webring
— “Webring”, you say? — Yes. A webring. Those things from the late 90’s/early 00’s where real people with real websites connected via a linking mechanism known as a webring. Well, it’s not so much of a mechanism as a list of websites that link between each other in a chain. So you could land…
