Welcome to LIBRE.TOWN! This is Lianna's personal homepage.
Libre Town is a virtual town: my way of both expressing myself online and forming genuine connections with others via the web. In Libre Town, you may find my projects, shrine pages, blog posts, and many more little hypertext surprises.
It is part of the broader "web revival" movement, a loose term for those who reject social media as the prime avenue of self expression and usually consider the mainstream internet unethical, boring or limiting. Nonetheless, we still think the World Wide Web has the potential to facilitate amazing things! That's why we create and manage our own personal amateur homepages: our own corners of the World Wide Web. We connect with others through web-rings, chat-rooms, e-mail and the web experience itself.
The web revival can be considered part of hacker culture, a post-modernist art movement, or just a hobby; it's all in the eye of the beholder.
Check out the navigation bar to find out what Libre Town has to offer. Many pages have sub-pages, so feel free to click around!
I hope you enjoy your stay.
A Note on Hyperlinks
As described in the Hypertext Maximalist's Manifesto, there are two types of links on Libre Town. The colorless underlined passages that blend in are complementary hyperlinks leading to further resources, explanations or citations. In contrast, the bold, colorful links are the "main" hyperlinks, important and essential to the passage's intent.
It is my goal to use this dual system to strike a balance between keeping Libre Town readable and linking to as many relevant, useful or interesting web resources as possible.
