The web is lame.

Return to Oliver's Home Page

The web is not webby enough. It used to be cooler to surf back five years ago and longer when you could just surf from the site of one wierdo to the site of another, all amateurish and inter-linked.

Now people just shop, search google for what they want, go to the few sites they care about, or go to the big media outlets. The home page is dead. And I hardly know anyone who just surfs any more.

Well, some of my friends have lame, old-school pages, just like me. And some of them have blogs, which aren't as cool, but here they are anyway.

Josh Joyce Some photos and one blog entry.
Mike Rettig If you don't know what an EJB is, this might not be the blog for you.
Matt & Jen Highlight is the guide to Chicago's vegetarian restaurants.
Greg Fast Some Perl. Some stuff. Greg is hard to explain.
David Perkinson My mentor. Some Irish music.
Geoff Raye Geoff has some quotes of mine, God bless him.
John & Libby Stories from Mexico.
Jake Harvey Misanthropy subtly blended with misogyny.
Derek Kaczmarczyk Tech and other thoughts from another excellent programmer.
Kevin Lilly Strange electronic music.
Greg Ball Adventures in London.
Brian Zimmer Great blog of Seattle's premier gardener-photographer-chef-programmer.
Emma Arnold The radical graphic design of Emma Arnold.
Emily Stewart This New Orleans guide was give to me, and I host it myself, so it ought to stay working.

Are you my friend? Do you have a homepage you should have listed here? Let me know, and I'll put up a link.

I love that half the links on this page are broken. 1997 indeed.
