could anyone give me some examples of personal sites with good indexes? mine aren’t good, and most sites... specially blogs... just seem to have given up organizing anything

<capjamesg> My index is unique from most in that it is broken 😂
#
IWDiscordGateway
<capjamesg> Each entry is a dictionary pointing to a broken link 🤦‍♂️
#

<capjamesg> [chrisaldrich] I did under https://indieweb.org/IndieWeb_Search
#
IWDiscordGateway
<capjamesg> There are a lot of great links on /search.
#
IWDiscordGateway
<capjamesg> That is a massive collection of search links.
#
IWDiscordGateway
<capjamesg> IndieWeb Search is on there too!

what is an index
#
Loqi
An index is an organized list of information on a personal website potentially consisting of tags/categories, articles, locations, authors or related information to make it easier to find particular content on a site https://indieweb.org/index
#
[tantek]
^ slightly different from an /archive
#
IWDiscordGateway
<capjamesg> Ah interesting.
#

<capjamesg> The closest I have is a categories page: https://jamesg.blog/categories/

I find the indie search stuff very interesting. I've been collecting links on it over at https://context.center/topics/indie-search/ - added indie search. Let me know if there's something I missed, I am def trying to learn more about it.

what is search
#
Loqi
search in the IndieWeb usually refers to searching your personal site for your own content (and/or caches of content you’ve responded to), sometimes searching IndieWeb chat archives or the IndieWeb wiki, or the nascent IndieWeb Search index and service to search across community posts https://indieweb.org/search
#
[tantek]
search << Index of Indie Search related posts/services: https://context.center/topics/indie-search/
#
Loqi
ok, I added "Index of Indie Search related posts/services: https://context.center/topics/indie-search/" to the "See Also" section of /search https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=82028&oldid=82027

AramZ-S[m] it looks like https://indieweb.org/search could use some gardening if you’re interested in the subject! It covers much more than broad based "indie search" so that's an interesting challeng.

I'll def have to dive in at some point. I gotta get my IndieAuth working first tho :D
