Links

This is where I will share any web things made by others that I have found that I am particularly delighted or enlightened by and think others might also be one of the above to encounter.

In these horrible modern days it is increasingly hard to find good things on the Internet. Our only defence against junk is to band together and help good things get attention. So this is my little contribution to that effort!

You might see some little buttons next to some people's website links: these are website buttons that were trendy to make on Bluesky for a while there. I have one for my site too!

Personal Websites/Blogs

Develops 6502/Acorn games which are obviously areas of interest for me!

Game developer with a great gamedev blog.

A famous name in the online hacking scene.

Developer of the very cool Kitsune Tails who also does some blogging.
Fallen Lights
A visual artist whose art I just really like to go and look at from time to time.
Kimimi The Game-Eating She-Monster
Really interesting blog about playing games. All sorts of games. If you're interested in it they probably covered something like it once or twice or ten times.

Stone Tools
Explores productivity software of a bygone era.
Virtual Moose
Creates lists of places and people you might find yourself interested in!

Art

MetPublications free art books
Just what it says on the can.


Books and Reading

Books Of All Time
The home of a podcast and reading club focusing on books that are thoughtfully curated to expand one as a reader.
Neglected Books
A place to find out about books and authors you've probably never heard about.


Computing

The RISKS Digest
An archive of the Forum on Risks to the Public in Computers and Related Systems. Starting in the 90s, a fascinating journey through the early days of appreciating the trouble computers would cause when they were integrated into our everyday lives, up until the hellish today. Some famous names pop up too.


Food

The Polish Housewife
I swear I had half this website open in tabs at one point 'for when I have time to try it'.


Game Development Resources

Handmade Hero Guide
A (currently paused) YouTube series that covers the creation of a game starting from very low-level (mainly Windows) programming. The project is old enough at this point that a lot of the material feels dated in terms of what would be most useful today, and there are more videos than anyone could hope to sanely absorb, but there's a lot to be learned here too.


Games and Software Projects

Cookie Clicker
One of the most iconic idle/incremental/clicker games. One of the few safe spaces on the Internet to discuss the inherent evil of grandmas.
Domino Club
A collective effort producing some really interesting experimental game projects.
Minute Farms
Combines the fun of farming with the terror of a time limit.
Picotron
A charming 'fantasy workstation' project.
slow roads
Just drive a not particularly physics-reliable car along a road. Or through a stone wall. Or across endless fields trying to find the road again because you refuse to press the button that will take you back there. Or into a body of water because you just wanted to know if you could do that and now you can't find your way out...


Informative Resources

if you love it, download it
A blog post offering information and inspiration for all of us to become archivists of online material.
Making Your Own MSP
An informative (and depressing) guide produced in the wake of the 2025 attack on itch.io by regressive monsters (not the sexy kind).


Language Resources

Lexis Rex
Some great resources for learning a variety of languages.


Novelty

Kevin's Fridge Magnets
A charming holdover from the older more fun days of the Internet: virtual fridge magnet letters you can rearrange to say whatever's on your mind!
OMFGDOGS
They're dogs! :D


Programming Resources

Easing Functions
A site to help you choose an easing function for a particular situation.


Retro Computing Resources

The 88x31 Archive
A collection of buttons scraped from Geocities sites. A charming window into a largely disappeared Internet.
FrogFind
A search engine suitable for vintage computers.
Mac Themes Garden
A gallery of custom themes for the Kaleidoscope theme manager from the Classic Mac era. It's a charmingly aesthetic site, as you would expect from something built by a Mac fan of that era.


Visual Resources

Britain From Above
Lots of fabulous overhead shots of Britain.
Reference Angle
Searchable reference images for human faces in different poses.
