Manu Moreale — Web developer and indie web advocate in Italy
Minimalism, design, and the People & Blogs interview series.
manuelmoreale.comI write and I hit publish. I don't proofread, I don't do drafts. You write it because you have something to communicate, you hit send, and you move on.
Manu writes short, honest posts about the open web, blogging culture, and everyday life — then hits publish without looking back. His People and Blogs interview series has profiled over 150 bloggers, and he runs blogroll.org as a directory of independent sites. The blog feels less like content and more like letters from a thoughtful friend who cares deeply about keeping personal publishing alive.

Interviews, interviews, interviews
For some weird combination of factors, I ended up answering questions to three different people for three entirely unrelated projects, and all three interviews went live around the same time.

I also answered a few questions from Kai since he’s running a great series where he asks previous IndieWeb Carnival hosts to share some thoughts about the theme they chose. And lastly, Kristoffer asked...
Step aside, phone: week 2
Halfway through this enjoyable life experiment, and overall, I’m very pleased with the results. As I mentioned last week, I was expecting week two usage to be a bit higher compared to week one, where I went full phone-rejection mode, but I’m still pleased with how low my usage was, even though it felt like I was using the phone a lot. Also included is a screen from last Sunday No huge spikes this week, didn’t need to use Google Maps a lot, so the time distribution is a lot more even, as you can...
Updated thoughts on People and Blogs
This is a follow-up on my previous post. After talking to a few friends and getting feedback from the kind people who decided to email me and share their thoughts, I decided that I will stop once interview number 150 is out, on July 10th. 150 is a neat number because it means I can match each interview to a first gen Pokemon. I am a 90s kid after all. That said, my stopping on the 10th of July doesn’t mean the series also has to stop. If anyone out there is interested in picking it up and carryi...
