Hello there! I'm Anne-Laure Le Cunff, founder of Ness Labs and a PhD researcher at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, where I study how different brains learn differently. I created this public notebook / digital garden because I believe the only way to learn in public is to build in public. This is a public notebook where I share some of my thoughts on networked thinking, creativity, metacognition, and collective intelligence. It uses bi-directional links, so you can see which pages refer to the one you are currently reading.

About the decline & revival of the personal website, and on the progress our tools have made.

Remember the internet? One millennial's jaded digital nostalgia.

For a while now, I've been slowing working on a refactor of the codebase of this blog. At one point, I got caught in exciting world of performance and I wanted to make sure I had a super fast pageload. Currently, my CSS is added inline in the HTML and I found myself thinking "no one will be able to read this".

This chain letter-esque post has been doing the rounds, and in the spirit of trying to rebuild my blogging muscle I thought what better to blog about than blogging? This post is a bit of a love letter to having your own place on the web, no matter how simple.

thoughts.page is a platform for hosting a small webpage for your thoughts. it's basically like twitter, but nobody can @ you. if you want to see what a thoughts page might look like, check out my thoughts, evy's thoughts, or the thoughts webring :) thoughts pages are an attempt at a quieter, slower, more personal internet. a little space on the web, just for you.

You can download Small Is Beautiful #23 directly, and watch it with your favourite video player. Small Is Beautiful (Oct, 2022): What is the Small Web and why do we need it? Today, I want to introduce you to a concept – and a vision for the future of our species in the digital and networked age – that I’ve spoken about for a while but never specifically written about:

I've committed myself properly this to building my own personal platform. No fancy tech. No new tools. No distractions with the latest fad. It's taken me longer than expected. The year has been stressful. I've had lots to clean up, personally and professionally. Digitally and IRL. Merging of different places

Own your web persona… Break free of onerous platforms, fully control your content, and connect directly with your audience Use future-proof standard web protocols for a centralized profile with status updates and options for your audience to follow you without the middle-man.

Most websites today are built like commercial products by professionals and marketers, optimised to draw the largest audience, generate engagement and 'convert'. But there is also a smaller, less-visible web designed by regular people to simply to share their interests and hobbies with the world. A web that is unpolished, often quirky but often also fun, creative and interesting.

On the architecture of blogging

An essay on the decline & revival of the personal website.

2024 is the year of the indie web and the blog. Just like 2023 was. And 2022. And 2021. In fact, how far can we stretch back? Oh you're blogging again? Cute. WELCOME BACK MOTHERFUCKERS.—…
