Welcome to Computering! Home to all websites that be computering. (lit. "computer webring" but also "to computer")

This webring is a little club for websites and webmasters that are interested in, discuss, or otherwise style their pages after older computers and operating systems.

What's a webring?

According to everyone's favorite academic source;

A webring (or web ring) is a collection of websites linked together in a circular structure, usually organized around a specific theme, and often educational or social. They were popular in the 1990s and early 2000s, particularly among amateur websites.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Why is there no "official" CSS for the widget like other webrings have?

A: Because one of the main themes to this webring is sites that imitate specific OSes. It'd look very out of place if, say, I made the widget Windows 98 themed and someone with a MacOS themed site had to include it. Folks are encouraged to present the widget however they like and in whichever way suits their site best.
