Joining the Web of Markdown
On October 6, 2026, Dave Winer posted "The Web of Markdown" and expanded on the original idea on Scripting News. The Web of Markdown is like a web browser for browsing markdown files - that means no CSS, no frameworks, and no cruft - just Markdown files, as a way to restart the web in 2026.
Google isn't allowed in, and he would not want the EFF or the W3C running it either. It also avoids WordPress running the majority of the sites.
Anyone could easily add this capability to their existing website (I run a heavily modified version of Known - I'll document how I enabled markdown browsing support soon). The key point is that sites on the Web of Markdown must support RSS inputs and outputs. Read more about Dave's proposal here.
Don't forget to be grateful
Gratitude is a mindset that shifts focus from what is lacking to the abundance already present, transforming ordinary moments into sources of joy and resilience.
Life can be full of challenges, struggles, and uncertainties, but there are also moments of joy, beauty, and blessings that we should treasure and be grateful for. It's easy to overlook these things or take them for granted - especially when we may be going through hard times. These small blessings can be reminders that there is always goodness and grace around us, even during our struggles.
Remember to give thanks for these blessings and ask forgiveness when you overlooked them or took them for granted. God will restore your peace as you pray and give thanks for these blessings in your life.
