Where Are You?ย
The /where page movement.
#23 ยท ยท readIn 2015, Derek Sivers started the /now page movement.
The idea is simple. While /about pages show you what a website is about, /now pages show you what people are focused on, right now.
I introduced my own now page a couple of months ago during a very exciting phase of my life. Because at that time, I started my one-year trip around the world.
When I did, I didn't just want to blog about it. I also wanted to remind my readers where in the world I was at any given moment.
And so, I created the /where page. Similarly to a now page, a where page isn't static information. It needs an update whenever you move to another place.
In my case, I will travel to a lot of countries in this year. With my where page, I can let visitors of my websites know where I am.
Say, if I wanted to meet friends around the world, who are also travelling, they will know where to find me.
The /where page movement
Just like Derek did, I want to start a movement.
I call it the /where page movement:
- Introduce a where page showing the city or country you are currently in.
- Update the location whenever you travel to another place.
- Share your where page link with others so that they can hit you up.
If you like the idea or decide to introduce your own /where page, reply to this post by email.
For your convenience, I included my /where page at the top of my /now page.
Enjoy travelling! ๐
