about
this is a webring. a webring is like an onion ring except it is more abstract and intangible and you can't eat it. but if you imagine the breading of the onion ring as a series of websites instead of fried batter, then you will notice that if you follow the breadcrumbs, as it were, by the time you've gotten to the bottom of the list, then you've arrived back at the top!
members
feeds
here's a special bonus, just for you, our special friend. a special little treat for special little you. it's an opml file of all webring members that have a feed. here you go!
how it works
this webring requires no client/member-side javascript.
it works by navigating to this page
with certain query parameters. e.g.
?name=town&dir=next.
then this page will do some javascript
and redirect the user to the next (or previous) page in the ring.
so you can make the whole thing work
with just a couple of anchor tags on your site.

<a href="https://tilde.town/~dozens/webring/dozens/index.html">all</a> |
<a href="https://tilde.town/~dozens/webring/dozens/index.html?name=yoursitename&dir=next">next</a> >
</p>
</div>
