Show HN: I made paperboat.website, a platform for friends and creativity
Source: Hacker News
Welcome to paperboat.website!
A simple, friendly and accessible personal site or blog for your thoughts, projects and creations.
The internet is full of distractions and advertisements, and I felt like there needed to be a place on the web for me and my friends. I called it paperboat because it is simple, lightweight, and friendly. I also like to imagine a little stream full of paperboats, each carrying a special and personal story. You’re warmly invited to be part of it!
