One Vote

You know that little poll thing I put on the sidebar of this blog? It has a whopping one vote on it! WOOHOO!


In other news, I put this fancy little Google Search bar at the bottom of the homepage of Misty's World, which allows you to search all of my main sites, including this blog! Cool, right?

I hooked my laptop up to this mini television that I usually use for my Raspberry Pi. I feel so cool using two monitors! 

CSS

I just decided to try and learn some CSS, so I can actually make modern looking websites. I made a generic page using web tutorials. Most of the hard stuff was done by copying and pasting, but eventually I'll learn how to actually do it.

CSS makes websites a lot better, doesn't it. I tried to add some CSS to Misty's World's navigation bar, but it didn't work. Maybe the site doesn't want to move on from the 90s. Now I've realised that so much of my terrible webpage designing skills could be fixed with CSS!

Most people would now go onto their sites and CSSify it, but I'm not gonna do that. There are two reasons why. Firstly, it's too much work and secondly, I want to keep the 90s GeoCities aesthetic that I have on my site. CSS would just make it modern. Eventually it would end up looking like one of those ugly webpages using a flat design.

I would make a separate site to test my CSS skills, but I can't think of any ideas. I would ask people to give me suggestions in the comments section, but nobody actually reads this blog so I'm gonna get nothing.

I Can't Think of a Title for This...

Hello!

I know this is all everybody can talk about online right now, but net neutrality is a very important thing right now. People say that it is only affecting people in the U.S, but I'm sure ISPs in other nations will see what they are doing and try to do the same things.

If these evil companies try to slow down the Web for their customers and only give them access to specific sites based on their package, small sites like mine will be affected! That'll encourage everyone to just join a boring old social network. You wouldn't be able to read this blog, either.

All of your favourite sites will be blocked by what is essentially a pay wall. I saw someone on Reddit yesterday say that it was like adding micro transactions to the Internet. If we can protest as much as everybody did when EA decided to add stupid micro transactions to Star Wars Battlefront 2, then we can maybe put a stop to the evil plans of these companies, or at least push them back by a few years.

Even if you live somewhere else and won't be affected, just help fight for Net Neutrality anyway. It's pretty fun to raise awareness for this issue.

Or maybe you just don't care. It might actually get people off of the Internet for once. But small businesses will lose money because their websites may be blocked. You don't want that to happen, do you?

I'm Stuck for Website Ideas...

I'm trying to make an effort of updating my site regularly so it doesn't die. Everyday I check Neocities in case anybody posted on my profile, and every few days I update something on my site.

Recently I have been having the website creator's version of writers block. I can't think of anything else to put onto my site or update. I want to make another site, but everything I make looks exactly like my existing site.

Maybe one day when I am lying in bed pondering life or when I'm walking home from school, I'll think of something to add to Misty's World. Until then, nothing major is coming to the site.

For some reason I just like making new websites. That was probably why I decided to move from Escargot Spaces and create this lovely blog.

There is nothing else to write, so until then, goodbye.
