You've got things to do, so I'll make this brief. I set up this website to host some of my creative endeavours, write about my interests and because I felt nostalgic pangs for the good ol' days of the late 90's / early 2000's Web. Back then, everyone seemed to be crafting their own unique personal websites and I think it's sad that not many people do these days. So as soon as I found out about neocities, I knew I had to join and make my own website too.
About Me:
- Age: 35
- Spring and Autumn are my favourite times of the year.
- Only my plants are carnivorous.
- This is my Political Compass (not sure I'm quite as radical as this...)
- There's really not much else to say about me...
- Uh... here's my nan's Welsh cake recipe?
- ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Some things I enjoy include:
- Bird / nature watching (I find it restful).
- Retro video games.
- Visiting the seaside.
- Terrariums.
- Music (especially Punk, Indie, 80's Pop and Heavy Metal).
- Retro Computing.
- Photography.
- House Plants.
This site might be a prime example of the "Ikea effect". It's very basic because I'm lazy and I use a lot of bad deprecated code. But I'm still kinda pleased with how it's turned out and I had fun making it. If I'm honest, it's become a bit of a monument to my ability to procrastinate (if I'm working on this, I should probably be doing something else...) so updates may be a little less frequent from now on.
Just for kicks and because I hate how bloated and sluggish the web has become, I'm going to keep the site as small as I can (it's currently under 20 MB). So far so good... But I hope to continue adding more stuff in the future so we'll see. This website is never likely to be optimised for mobile phones (web browsing on a smart phone is a horrible experience and I don't want to encourage such madness).
P.S. The name of my website is taken from the song "Night City" by The Sword (link)
