An annual blogging event by Robert Birming where bloggers share others' posts and help others discover cool individuals in the IndieWeb / small web community.

/junited-2026/

What Is This?

Junited is a project started in 2024 by Robert Birming, a fellow blogger from Sweden.1 It is an annual, low-pressure event where you share your favourite links to personal sites, blogs or posts from the small web / IndieWeb community every June. I do something similar in my /⁠weeknotes Link Roundup section, but this is more deliberate and community driven.

If you want to join the fun, see Robert’s post for Junited 2026 to get started—it’s the most active year yet! Sharing is caring. 🥰

My Junited 2026 List

It’s my first year participating and I really love the idea. Since I’m starting on June 17, I’ll be back-filling the list a bit to get up to speed! Throughout the rest of the month, links will be added to this page. In no particular order:
