Hi, thanks for including Neocities on the list!
Just finished a cli this week, haven't announced it yet: gem install neocities

Thanks for sharing. I really liked the idea behind https://hypothes.is in particular, but I haven't found any site that really is enhanced by it. With the right user base though it could be awesome.
Yeah Hypothesis is a bit nerdy. This is why Genius exists, and if rap/hip-hop is not your thing, Hypothesis can be used for any niche annotation.
I'm kind of excited about SOLID, while it may not be exactly what you are looking for I'm hoping it will pave the way for the next generation of decentralized social networks where users own their own data.
>Solid (derived from "social linked data") is a proposed set of conventions and tools for building decentralized Web applications based on Linked Data principles. Solid is modular and extensible. It relies as much as possible on existing W3C standards and protocols.

How about Tor
Examples: Craigslist (21 years old) Wikipedia (16 years old) FireFox (15 years old) OpenOffice (14 years old) OpenStreetMap (13 years old) DuckDuckGo (7 years old) etc
Obviously, there has been tremendous successes with things like Andriod (10 years old), Raspberry Pi (5 years old), and Bitcoin (6 years old). But what's new? What's your favorite new upstart project? Or are all the brilliant minds being lured away by the page views, app downloads, and venture capital cycle?
