Corners of Internet - #1 Place to find coolest corner's of internet
www.cornersofinternet.com
No fluff, no clickbait — just hidden gems, underrated tools, indie games/ films & lot more. Discover the best corners of the internet, curated for you by Coi.

Remember when the internet felt like a giant treasure hunt instead of just… cycling through the same five apps? Yeah, me too. That’s why I started COI (Corners of Internet)—a place where I dig up weird, fun, and happy corners of the web so you don’t have to.

No algorithms. No doomscrolling. Just pure internet exploration.

If it’s cool, underrated, or a little unhinged, it goes on COI.

Check it out: www.cornersofinternet.com

Also, if you’ve got a favorite weird site, drop it below! I’m always looking for new rabbit holes to fall into.

    I don’t think it needs to be hidden or anything, but consider your “before the fold” content, it’s what is most important on a web page and what will grab users in the 2-3 seconds you have to capture their attention before many will click off.

    Currently on your site I have to scroll down quite a bit beyond the fold to get to the actual website on my phone, as the top section is taken up by very large text superfluous to the main content.

    I know it sucks to have to build for that sort of user, but it’s a large chunk of users, and the rest are just putting up with the inconvenience haha :-)

      Actually I plan to change it when there is some awareness about what we are doing uk. I wanted to give the site some personality tbh, the thought was Coi is an internet curator and the hero section is designed like his resume! I know it might just make sense in my head lol

      prominant at the footer or last on a sidebar. a page dedicated to a brief transparency of hosting costs and ongoing labor demands of the project, and current state of funding helps a lot!

      if that seems difficult, see if a friend or comrade with ok writing skills ‘interview’ you on the subject for five or ten minutes – sometimes it’s easier to have a friend reflecting to discover one’s finer points of value.

      thanks for helping build the webrings and discovery tools of tomorrow.

      i’ll be watching your project while i work on my Web Literacy and Navigation materials. :)

        Yes, will think about shifting it to the footer + I was working on being open about the spending for the site. A road map page is also under construction.

        Thank you so much for the feedback. would love to see what you working on.
