Hi there! Welcome to reallycoolwebsite.net.

This is a website for what I'm calling ‘internet scrapbooking’. It's like a mix between a ‘social bookmarking’ site and a micro-blogging platform -- you can save pages you find interesting from the internet, but you can include little quotes or small snippet screenshots and write descriptions about why you like each page. You can also make text posts if you so desire, so the site can also be used as a kind of blog platform.

The website does not run ads, collect user behavioral data, or do other creepy things. It is run by me as a side/hobby project, not a commercial venture, so I don't intend to change these things. Currently, it is funded out of my own pocket.

The site is also designed to be very lightweight and should be fairly usable on bad connections. It is written on top of stable, mature technology (Perl on FCGI with Dancer2, if you must know) and it does not use any Javascript (unless you enable inline Youtube embedding in your user settings.) I also added some light social features: a “follow” feature so you can follow other people's accounts, and you can like and comment on people's posts.

If these ideas appeal to you, you're welcome to join the site! You can register for an account here. The site is still in early stages, so my apologies if you run into unexpected issues.

Ideally I will include more ‘discovery’ features in the future, so people can actually find accounts on the website, but right now you'll have to tell people about the existence of your page manually...
