Are you old enough to remember "web rings?"
- just_boost_it 4y agoNot quite it seems. I was a kid when Facebook came out. I remember what it was like to find websites that had real, bizarre, and innovative content, but I was too young to pick up on the terminology or appreciate how any of it worked.
- winternett 4y agoI kind of do that on an individual level myself - http://www.ruffandtuffrecordings.com/SELECTIONS http://www.ruffandtuffrecordings.com/SELECTIONS Those are music picks I regularly update... It would be really cool if there was the ability to standardize the format for small web sites like this and then be able to follow others with similar interests... Pretty much reviving the old Myspace in essence, but with independent micro-sites for hosting curated links and other content from each user.
- YLE118 4y agoI like that, Bandcamp lets artists do something similar in that they can suggested albums/tracks ahead of the payment algorithmically selected suggestions. In the early 2000s I remember lots of blogs about music where they just posted links to mp3s because there didn't seem to be a better way to embed tracks. I appreciate people based suggestions.
