Greetings, traveller, and welcome to LIBRE.TOWN!
This is my personal homepage. Libre.Town is my way to express myself online and form genuine connections with others on the web: through sharing my hobbies, interests, thoughts I have about the world, my projects, and much more. =)
It's part of the broader "web revival movement", a loose term for those who consider social media harmful, the mainstream internet unethical and/or boring, but nonetheless want to use the internet to socialize. For that purpose, they create and manage their own personal amateur homepages, their own corners of the world wide web; and connect with others through web-rings, chat-rooms and other wonderful features of the internet. Some also seek to revive how the web and computers in general looked and felt like in the late 90s and early 2000s, for nostalgic or utopian purposes. It can be considered part of hacker culture, a post-modernist art movement, or just a hobby; it's all up to the beholder.
Check out the navigation bar on the left (or top) side of your screen to find out what Libre.Town has to offer. Many pages have sub-pages for even more content, so feel free to click around! I hope you enjoy what you see.

Web Cliques
A Web Clique is a loose community of people who all agree to put some similar little gadget on their site, linking back to the overarching group. This helps discover new websites by likeminded folk. It's also a creative exercise, since often, the stuff you put on your site is customized or "claimed" to be used by you and you alone. These are the cliques I am a part of:
