The Who and Why of the Web – Q&A Format on Web Technologies and Culture

Hacker News

Hey Hackernews! I wrote a small rambling piece on my 'Why' of the web, and the assumed roles we play when we use the web, and how we can subvert these roles and use the web in our own prescribed way. http://blog.higg.so/2015/11/08//the-why-of-the-web/ It talks about the noise surrounding tech startups and disregards 'The What' which tech startups so feverishly try to answer. 'Why' tends to go deeper, and it's better to question our why than look at the What. Feel free to give constructive feedback on my post, and let me know your why, if you have any? -Enginnr
