Small Web Randomizers

This week saw the launch of two services that randomly serve up servings of the Small Web / Indie Web. What is the Small or Indie Web? You’re soaking in it!

A Tiny Bell and other personal blogs are part of it. If you like this kind of content, you may want to check out:

IndieBlog.Page which has an Open Random Blog Post button that you can click or add to your browser as an extension. Hit it when you need a fix.

The second such service is by Kagi, a Google competitor you may wish to check out. Theirs is called Kagi Small Web Randomizer. Simply click that link to be taken to a random part of the Small Web. It’s sourced from a curated list.

There is also a Trump Golf Tracker.
