Weird Web October

What?

Weird Web October is a challenge to try and make a website every day of October, based on the theme for each day, inspired by Inktober. It’s open to you and everyone!

Why?

We want to bring back the WEIRD WEB. When people just put fun and silly stuff on the internet, not for followers or likes but just for the joy of making something and sharing it.

How?

Step 1: Just make a website!

It can be static, dynamic, made with a website builder - whatever you’re comfortable with. We recommend about an hour to get the creative juices flowing, but it’s up to you.

Step 2: Share it!

This step is optional, but we’d really love to see what everyone is making! Our friends at Octothorpes have made it super easy to get your site listed on the #weirdweboctober hashtag just by just adding this code snippet to the <head> section of your site: <link rel="preload" as="fetch" href="https://octothorp.es/?uri=https://yoururlhere" > <link rel="octo:octothorpes" href="weirdweboctober" > Click to copy And add this snippet each day to include a hashtag for the theme: <link rel="octo:octothorpes" href="Nature" > Click to copy

About

My name is Jay Zuerndorfer and I decided to organize Weird Web October after talking about the idea with fellow attendees of the 2024 XOXO festival. If you have any feedback or ideas shoot me an email at jzplusplus [at] gmail.com. Or send me a pull request on Github.
