OUTER NETWORK

a directory of independent places, curated by hand

This is a small, hand-kept directory of independent sites — personal pages, programmers' corners, blogs, musicians, indie games, strange one-topic hobby sites, webrings, and other rooms in the small web that are still lived in. Nothing here is submitted or paid for by default — the one exception is Featured Placement below, and that's always clearly marked as such. I find a site, I think it's worth a visit, I add it. That's the whole process.

A separate wing of this project, The Cruxible Archive, is for the sites that didn't make it — recovered GeoCities pages, dead personal sites, Wayback finds, old guestbooks. This page is for the living web. The Archive is for what's left of the dead one.

> A NOTE ON LISTINGS

Everything below was found, not submitted. Linking to a public page and describing it doesn't require permission — that's how directories and webrings have always worked. Being listed here does not mean a site is affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Cruxible in any way. It means I came across it and thought it was worth pointing at.

If you run a site listed here and want it changed, described differently, or removed entirely, message me on Facebook and I'll take care of it.

> FEATURED PLACEMENT

a plot reserved, not yet filled

Not open yet. Once this directory has enough in it to be worth wandering through, a small paid tier will let a site sit near the top, clearly labeled as featured. Until then, everything here got in for one reason: I found it and thought it was worth your time.
