This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

As a website owner, you would just register your site with a ring and then add a bit of HTML at the bottom of your page which would display the randomly-selected banner of another site in the ring (and your banner would sometimes be displayed on another site). So visitors could just click on the banners and be taken through a circuit of interesting (sometimes) websites.

Ah, so basically a list/group of partner sites

But, like, for non-commercial fan sites, not for influencers.

Not really, because you would click an arrow to get to the next website. It didn't list everything out.

Does that still exist? I have a subpage on my website with interesting links, this could be something for it.

I haven't seen a web ring in more than 20 years.
