as a follow-up to my last post: i suppose there's also the possibility of this just being a scrubbing bot and theres no actual intent behind it. which could be better or worse. either way, the compromise with webarchive is that it doesnt get indexed on search engines, so unless you look for a specific url youre not gonna stumble on someone's site. it's a decent compromise i think.

found out someones been archiving my site and statuscafe page on the wayback machine and im a bit weirded out by it. i dont have anything too deeply personal on either pages so i dont really mind but if i did i'd probably want to be asked for permission first.

cant help but feel a little too aware that someone's watching you know. i feel generally positive about archiving but im also a firm believer in the right to be forgotten and how excessive collecting of data is just playing into the machinations of surveillance. ultimately this specific situation is not a big deal but it makes me think...

You CAN opt out of archival for archive.org if that's of interest- I know there's a page for that somewhere.

Oh, wow. Parts of my site have been repeatedly archived since late last year, too. I wonder why.

i want to make a new template... what kind of visual site structures are people into? sidebars? menu bar on the top? both? something super customisable?

From folks I've talked to: something easy to customize with no prior knowledge of CSS or HTML.

hmm... i feel like not wanting to touch html or css sort of defeats the purpose of small web, but i can think ways to make these things a little less intimidating to people in a template

feel like i've been seeing a lot of either left sidebar structures or "everything contained in a single scrollable box" ones. but i think as long as there's detailed documentation, people should be able to figure out how to customize things!

i spent like a week trying to find the simplest style switcher available, and kalechips's is like. incredibly efficient. i still experience some FOUC but it's possible to work around
