I was thinking that maybe I could have put more effort on having people to take a look at it, I know a lot of people will just read the title and think like "fuck off". haha

Totally worth reading, just great internet creativity

I'm over here giving a standing ovation for this. Sure, I probably look a bit silly standing alone in my office in the middle of the night, clapping and whistling at my computer in reaction to an article on blog monetization while my kids are in the other room trying to sleep for school tomorrow. But bravo!

This honestly feels like a preview of what the Internet should have βεζσΜε if it hadn't fallen to the sterilization of corporatism and the lowest common denominator.

To everyone that read this and enjoyed: Highly recommend House of Leaves. :)

me before reading this: I know the basics of CSS.

me after reading this: I know nothing about CSS.

This was great, thanks for posting!

This was the most informative thing I read on the internet today. I can't wait to go start a blog.

Love it. It's why I stopped putting adverts on any of my sites. I'd rather lose a few £s in order to make the interwebs slightly less shit.

I randomly scrolled to the right at the end.

You have to scroll up some, it goes that far over because of the word wormhole

The moment I realize I'm reading AI bs I'm never coming back. Just saying.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

I am pretty sure Lorem ipsum is better than AI bs!

Something tells me you may not have read far enough into this article to get to the good parts.
