Help me keep the creative,<br />independent internet alive!

<h3>My goal with NeoCities is to help bring back the creativity and free expression to the world wide web that made it great. I need your help.</h3>

I am tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other in
|
|
<b>boring, spied-on gated communities</b>, and are given generic templates which define what people are
|
|
supposed to know about each other. It's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless,
|
|
monetized, monitored entities and let our creativity flourish again.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
That's where NeoCities comes in. I want to provide a canvas for people to make any web site they want.
|
|
Whether it be a web site about something they're good at, something they love, something they hate, or
|
|
their own custom "Profile" where they can introduce themselves in a way that actually matters to them.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
It's a big project (to make small sites), and I have a lot of work to do.
|
|
<b>But I can't do it without your help</b>.

The technology has become affordable enough where we can provide this creative space without requiring a business
|
|
plan that involves selling people out to the marketing industry. But it still costs money, especially since server
|
|
demand is so high right now. And there are some possible surprise costs I haven't figured out yet (bandwidth estimates are difficult).
|
|
<b>But if NeoCities can get enough donations, NeoCities can survive!</b>
|
|
Together, we can prevent

Our creativity is too important to be commercialized. <a href="/donate">Help keep this idea alive by donating!</a> $100, $20, $5, a
|
|
free round of beers at your pub, speaking invites so we can spread the word, free server hosting, anything helps. Thank you!
