Hi!

So apparently GMMTV will be announcing their 2024 line up in October!

Which actors do you think will be paired together this time? I feel like Mix and Pond have hinted they will be studying more so maybe not their pairings…. GeminiFourth said they will have a series so definitely them…

I would love to see ThorFluke plus Pawin with anyone and Drake with anyone!

What are your predictions?

Ooooo, GMMTV 2024 Pure Speculation

(remember if it's not data driven I'm historically pretty bad at this, but sure, let's shoot the shizz)

Most Likely

EarthMix - they're reading v burned out (in addition to Mix + school) but they are currently GMMTV's cash cow so I can't imagine GMMTV won't try to put them in something, no matter what Mix said... but it's possible they'll be let rest for most of 2024.

First & Khao - naturally, if GMMTV can find a script the boys like, these two are likely their the biggest pair earners (if EarthMix really are out).

GeminiFourth - of course, the new princes

ForceBook - honestly they are steady, reliable workhorses who visually suit many BL scripts, they seem easy to work with, fun, and game. Not the most charismatic pair and I'm shaky on their range and versatility, but GMMTV clearly doesn't feel that way. I think it's pretty likely they will get something... I just hope it is something interesting. Are they bankable enough for a historical? That's the real question.

Not Sure

JoongDunk - I really don't know, I think they are slightly more likely than not but they keep getting lackluster scripts. GMMTV is more likely to blame the pair than the show. And it is possible they are just a lackluster pair... too.

JimmySea - what happen to (or will happen with) Last Twilight?

I'd like to see Jimmy paired with someone else. He's too charismatic for Sea. To really break us they should pair him with Gun and just burn down the world. GMMTV would never do this, tho.

Least Likely

It's unlikely PondPhuwin will lead out a show. Pond def said something about going back to school. (Which is code for a long break, if nothing else). They're good but less $ than EarthMix so I think GMMTV will back off from them.

OffGun - I'm not saying it won't happen anymore, but...

TayNew - see above

Bright with... anyone but Win.

A queer can dream, tho.

Some noodling

I do think First & Khao were successful enough, and Only Friends will be enough of a sensation, for GMMTV to consider more First Khao style stuff. AKA instead of just dropping a whole pair, GMMTV will try rearranging pairs. Especially for couples that had previously been mostly just sides.

So we can expect Neo, Mark, Marc, Puwin, Aou, possibly even the twins or the Flukes show up paired "experimentally" with different other actors. Some that may genuinely surprise us.

That said, I'd like some more role swapping too.

For example, with Pond away, and him getting older and being SO established in the genre, I would love to see Phuwin play a seme roll. Not sure he has the personality for it in terms of how he's bonded with some of the newer GMMTV talent since I don't watch any of the variety/BTS anymore, but he has the screen presence.

Remember originally Neo & Phuwin had a pairing... I wonder if that would ever happen again.

I would love love LOVE to see Tay paired with someone else. I thought he was a revelation in 3 Will Be Free showing range I'd no idea he had and he's such a big puppy and friendly with everyone. I bet he could get many partners to trust and relax.

Similarly New needs to play a seme. I think he once said he'd rather not do BL with anyone but Tay, but I still think he'd be fun to see.

So New is less likely, but I think we can safely assume Tay would be game. With TayNew it's whether their shipper/stalker fans would "allow" this.

What GMMTV Wants/Needs

I said in the past they needed to onboard new talent and they went for free agents (Joong, Perth). I thought they'd go for whole pairs, and I still think they'd be wise to consider this.

Given they're likely shifting focus on expansion into darker, higher heat, and more gritty arenas (which I think they need to do given the paucity of scripts within their preferred BL style, the tenor of the market, and the aging of their existing stable) what they want is Zee++. Now they can't wrestle him/his pair free of Dormundi, so...

For solos they are looking for:

actors who have lost their pair, have range into dark territory, will do high heat, and can play harsher seme roles (tall a bonus.)

If they're smart they make a play for Bible, but I wouldn't rule out Lee Long Shi. Both actors have a style that fills a niche in the GMMTV stable and are pro enough to work well in a new pair that GMMTV sets for them.

You KNOW they want Bible. How could they not? Can you imagine?

If they go after a pair?

If they're smart as I think they are? They want NetJames. And they might be able to get them, depending on contracts. NetJames has been awful quiet recently, they either are actually finally filming Love Upon a Time or that's fallen through and they're in contract negotiations. YinWar and JaFirst are also tempting prospects, I would imagine. Especially Ja.

It's this "new pair to GMMTV" announcement I'm most interested in, come October.

I think I'm leaving a key high heat pair on the table, but GMMTV also has a specific appearance and acting style they tend to cast for, and not all of the current indy heat pairs have that. Plus their are high value pairs that clearly do not want to sign with or work with GMMTV (OhmFluke for example) so that's a factor.

Finally, you KNOW they want to recreate the magic of GeminiFourth with young talent so I would bet they are actively recruiting high school grade pink milk via auditions, so we can expect one set of totally fresh faces.

Also tumblr ate half this post so I might have missed a few pairs worth discussing, because I had them but it deleted them. Don't blame me, blame tumblr, and leave a comment.

FYI my predictions for 2023 were as follows:

10 GMMTV THAI BL 2023 Predictions (and how I did)

(these are the ones I made last year before their announcements)

EarthMix (yes, 2x)

something with Joong but not paired with Dunk (nope, they tried the same thing again)

dito Jimmy (not sure what's going on there)

what the hell: Lee does a BL (still no, last man standing)

probably a new attempt at ForceBook (yep)

2 set in high school and fewer set in uni (yep/nope)

at least 1 set in an office of some kind and at least 2 set in the countryside (yep/sorta but mostly nope)

one experimental paranormal/alt reality/time slip (yep)

something Friend Zone messy featuring several LBGTQ+ characters and couples and higher heat (yep)

an attempt to resurrect big guns like TayNew (yep - if cherry magic happens) or even BrightWin (nope, they went for OffGun instead, who I had thought were out)

So here's my...

10 GMMTV THAI BL 2024 Predictions

First & Khao lead out something non-school and complex (GMMTV BL grows up)

ForceBook & GeminiFourth get new shows

Phuwin paired with someone else

GMMTV starts experimenting more with busting up and rearranging pairs

What the hell, Tay does a BL with not New.

We see Joong and Perth star in something GMMTV but not BL

GMMTV pulls in at least one established outside talent who plays harsh seme roles and has a more aggressive tone

GMMTV recruits/onboards an established pair who can and is willing to do higher heat

They option something v complex: crime thriller, mystery, suspense, historical even, I wonder if they might be interested in adapting say... Trapped.

JoJo gets to helm another "off brand" show

What I want them to do?

Finally admit that they can take an established script and "make it gay" and just LEAN in. Descendants of the Sun, but gay. Business Proposal, but gay. Home Town Cha Cha Cha... but gay. Thailand has the latent pool and the screen time but they don't have the scripts/stories.

Time to look to Korea and just fill in the gap that Korea is already leaving on the table (by only doing short form BLs).

Korea has the romances. Hundreds of them. MANY of which are not gender dependent.

Can you fucking imagine if Boss & Babe had been that exact cast but GMMTV doing a gay Dali and the Cocky Prince instead? It would have been amazing.

UX Without the Guesswork: How AI Predicts What Users Really Want

Let’s be real—guessing what users want is so 2020. In 2025, it’s all about AI-powered UX design that actually listens, learns, and adapts. No more hunches, no more “let’s hope this works.” Now, you’ve got data-backed predictions telling you exactly what your users need, often before they do. Whether you’re building a website, app, or digital product, understanding your users is non-negotiable—and…

Predictive vs. Adaptive Development: Which Way to Go?

Predictive development, also known as traditional or waterfall development, is a linear and sequential approach to software development. In this method, the entire project is planned and defined in advance, with a detailed project roadmap outlining all the tasks, milestones, and deadlines. This methodology assumes that the project requirements can be clearly defined from the beginning and do not change significantly during the development process.

Beyond Technical Skills

Baru-baru ini, World Economic Forum (WEF) merilis Future of Jobs Report 2030. Laporan ini mengungkapkan prediksi menarik: 92 juta pekerjaan akan hilang, tapi 170 juta pekerjaan baru bakal muncul!

92 juta pekerjaan yang bakal hilang ini kebanyakan pekerjaan administratif yang bakal digantikan otomatisasi. Misalnya kasir, penjaga tiket, bahkan akuntan sama auditor. Sementara 170 juta lowongan baru ini lebih ke arah teknologi dan energi terbarukan - kayak big data specialist, software engineers, sama UX designer (wohoo!).

McKinsey pun punya prediksi serupa: sampai 2030, 75-375 juta orang bakal perlu belajar skill baru dan ganti profesi. Sebenernya tren ini udah predictable sih, gak terlalu mengejutkan.

Tapi munculnya generative AI (gen AI) bikin saya was-was. Rasanya AI ini malah mempercepat prediksi yang udah ada. Awalnya saya skeptis, berpikir AI gak bakal bisa sepintar itu menggantikan manusia di bidang kreatif. Nyatanya? AI udah bisa bikin video, gambar, musik, tulisan - hal-hal yang kita pikir cuma bisa dilakukan manusia!

Di bidang saya sendiri, saya udah liat AI bisa bikin deliverables kayak sitemap dan wireframe. Tinggal nunggu waktu sampe AI bisa bikin desain web sama aplikasi yang high fidelity.

Yang bikin saya khawatir bukan soal bakal digantikan, tapi generasi saya dan generasi di bawah saya yang kayaknya belum sadar ada "pergeseran tektonik" gara-gara AI, khususnya gen AI.

Di era tech spring Indonesia (2012-2021), lowongan kerja banyak banget tapi yang qualified dikit. Sekarang dengan gen AI, gap antara industri sama pendidikan bakal makin melebar. Lowongan kerja bakal makin selektif, makin butuh skill tinggi, sementara talenta yang bener-bener siap cuma segelintir.

Contohnya, desainer yang cuma "jualan" kemampuan merancang desain bakal rentan digantikan AI yang bisa generate website dalam hitungan detik. Tapi desainer yang punya critical thinking, empati, berpikir sistematis, sama bisa bangun relasi - mereka bakal fokus ke aspek strategis yang belum bisa disentuh AI.

Skill-skill dasar ini penting, tapi gak semenawan bootcamp atau ebook yang janjiin gaji gede. Padahal skill foundational kayak critical thinking, problem solving, interpersonal skills, mental flexibility, systems thinking, self awareness, sama literasi teknologi itu yang bener-bener valuable - tak lekang waktu dan bisa dipake di berbagai industri.

Di era AI ini, kita gak bisa cuma jadi penonton. Kita harus jadi pemain. Belajar, adaptasi, sama terus-terusan upgrade skill. Bukan soal kalah atau menang sama AI, tapi bagaimana kita bisa naik level dengan menggunakan teknologi baru ini.

Stay curious, stay hungry!

1 & 2 for the general asks, and 11 & 13 for Skuld?

(For this)

General:

How did you get into the series?

So back in Ye Olden Days (2005), my mom bought a PS2 off eBay that came with three games--including Kingdom Hearts 1. Ironically, I had like--no interest in the game at the time, haha, so my brother the first to play it. I kind of just hung out in the living room to see what it was about, and uh. Got hooked pretty quickly with the opening movie and Dive to the Heart sequence. (Very much a case of, "Wait, hang on, this actually looks cool." Not what I was expecting at all.) And then from there I kind of just fell in love with the characters and story of the original game, and eventually had to play it myself.

Fun fact: neither of us knew it was going to be a series at the time. Like--Chain of Memories was already out at this point, and KH2 was coming out soon, but we were both oblivious for a long time, haha.

2. What's your favorite KH game?

Probably predictably, Union X. I adore the UX crew so much, and there are so many interesting plot points and lore that just make the story super interesting to dig into. (Everything with Ven, man.) Plus, the ending is just...it's gut-wrenching, but in a way that feels right for the story, even if I wish the crew could've stayed together. Got to love a good tragedy, man.

Skuld:

11. Do you have any headcanons for them?

She loves stories! Both reading them and hearing them from others, haha. It's one of the reasons she and Ephemer hit it off so fast; he had a lot of very out-there rumors and conspiracy theories to share, and Skuld had a pretty large collection of tales to give him in return.

I also imagine she can be a bit competitive; generally very good-natured, but if you're playing games with her, Be Prepared. She and Ephemer probably had an on-going competition for who could defeat the most Heartless on a mission.

13. Favorite fic focusing on this character?

I will GLADLY plug ANAMNESIS by izabellwit (@izabellwit) and skullclamp again, haha. It's genuinely one of my favorite fics ever, with such a fun group of characters. (Skuld, Strelitzia, and Xehanort as roommates in Quadratum? Perfect for drama and shenanigans.) It does such a good job at characterizing this crew and getting into their heads; I love it so much.

For fics where the focus in just Skuld, though, I also really love If Found, Please Return (also by skullclamp). It's a Subject X-Skuld fic, and focuses primarily on what her time as Subject X might've been like. Highly recommend it!

[fooligandan]

character ask game...you had said Larxene was one of your fav KH characters so im picking her :o)

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

23. Favorite picture of this character? [could be fanart or could be a screenshot/official art of them or one of each or anything you want forever]

(meme)

Favorite canon thing about this character?

Really basic answer but I like that she's mean and not sorry about it, its really fun and gives her character a really good entertaining presence IMO. AND her voice actress kills the performance, too, knows the assignment etc etc yaay yippieee. Overall she's fun to watch and I like her.

Logically I know that if she appears again that (I assume) not being on hostile terms with the main cast anymore - and having a heart again - will probably tone this down a little bit but I hope she keeps some bite at least.

^^^ I hope she's like this, basically. I know it to be true in my heart, if not.

Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

Hmmm... idk if they'dve been friends like at all (depending on how it'd go it could just be a full on disaster) but it could've at least been really funny to see her interact with, like, Vanitas or Youngnort in 3, maybe. Hater to Hater Communication. Hater to Hater Conversation.

Actually Friends, though? Hm...my boring/"probably canon or at least compliant all things considered" answer of Marluxia is like I said kind of boring/predictable so I'll ignore him for a minute and instead consider maybe Megara? They could have fun shooting the shit together, I think. This isn't very thought out tho (and neither is the first block for this tbh LOL) but I'm considering...

IDK she doesn't strike me as someone who has many friends (seemingly also true of her original self too, if Elrena's chirithy is to be believed? and also if I'm even remembering that right? I havent gotten back around to UX yet 😭) so this was hard to think of. Any she does/would have are probably ride or die besties though? Much to think about...

Favorite picture of this character?

This fanart is really good, the outfits and expressions/posing are excellent. Good work all around!

Canon images uhhh.... cheating on this one and just linking this "All Cutscenes" video, partly bcs I'm lazy and don't want to pick an instance or individual image but like i said, character presence/actress performance really good generally.

Why Digital Marketing is a Game-Changer in 2025 — And How We Can Help

Let’s be real — if you’re not doing digital marketing in 2025, you’re pretty much invisible online. Whether you're running a local cafe, launching a new SaaS tool, or offering freelance services from your laptop, digital marketing has become the secret sauce to scaling your reach, engaging your audience, and driving actual results.

But wait — hasn't digital marketing been around for ages? Yep. But the way it works in 2025 is on a whole new level. And trust me, if you’re not paying attention now, you’ll be playing catch-up later.

So grab your chai or coffee ☕, because we’re diving deep into how digital marketing is changing the game this year — and how we at Digital Growth Byte by DR Digitalzest can help you crush it.

🚀 What Makes Digital Marketing So Powerful in 2025?

1. People Are Online More Than Ever

Let’s face it, we all live on our phones. From scrolling Instagram Reels to Googling the best pizza in town, your target audience is just a few taps away from discovering your brand — if you know how to reach them.

Stats don’t lie: Over 5.3 billion people use the internet globally, and digital ad spend in 2025 has skyrocketed. Why? Because online is where the money is.

2. AI and Automation Are Making It Smarter

Gone are the days of guessing what works. Now you’ve got AI tools that can:

Predict what your customers want

Personalize your website content in real-time

Automate emails, ads, and even SEO

In short? Digital marketing in 2025 is no longer just about effort — it's about smart effort.

3. SEO Is Still King (But It’s Smarter Now)

Google’s algorithm is savvier than ever. It rewards:

Helpful content

Fast-loading websites

Authentic backlinks

Great user experience (UX)

This means if your website looks shady, loads slowly, or offers zero value, you're basically ghosted by Google. On the flip side, if you’re investing in good SEO practices, you're winning — and we can help you with exactly that.

4. Content Marketing = Trust + Sales

People no longer trust direct ads alone. They want value. Blogs, YouTube videos, Insta carousels, case studies — these build trust and drive organic sales.

2025 content marketing is all about:

Telling stories

Solving problems

Creating relatability

Building authority

And guess what? You don’t need a fancy agency to get started — you just need the right roadmap.

5. Digital Ads Are More Affordable Than Traditional Marketing

Newspaper ads, TV spots, radio jingles — they cost a bomb and have limited targeting.

In contrast, a Facebook ad campaign with ₹500 can reach thousands of people who are already interested in what you offer. And that’s the magic of performance marketing in 2025.

😎 Real Talk: What This Means for Your Business

Whether you're a startup, coach, service provider, or a solo hustler — digital marketing can:

Put you on the map (literally)

Drive qualified traffic to your site

Generate leads that convert

Establish your online authority

Still not convinced?

👉 Here’s a detailed look at the core benefits of digital marketing in 2025 — backed by real stats and insights that prove why going digital is no longer optional, it's survival.

Digital Marketing Skills to Learn in 2025

Key Digital Marketing Skills to Learn in 2025 to Stay Ahead of Competition The digital marketing landscape in 2025 is rapidly changing, driven by the technological advancements, shifting consumer behavior, and the growing power of artificial intelligence. Competition and career resilience require acquiring expertise in the following digital marketing skills.

Data Analysis and Interpretation

Data is the backbone of modern marketing strategies. The ability to collect, analyze, and make informed decisions based on large sets of data sets great marketers apart. Proficiency in analytical software like Google Analytics and AI-driven tools is critical in measuring campaign performance, optimizing strategies, and making data-driven decisions. Predictive analytics and customer journey mapping are also becoming more critical for trend spotting and personalization of user experience.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Search Engine Marketing (SEM)

SEO is still a fundamental skill, but the landscape is evolving. The marketer now has to optimize for traditional search engines, voice search, and even social media, as Gen Z increasingly relies on TikTok and YouTube as search tools. Keeping up with algorithm updates, keyword research skills, and technical SEO skills is essential to staying visible and driving organic traffic.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML)

AI and ML are revolutionizing digital marketing through the power to enable advanced targeting, automation, and personalization. Marketers will need to leverage AI in order to segment audiences, design content, deploy predictive analytics, and build chatbots. Most crucial will be understanding how to balance AI-based automation with human, authentic content.

Content Generation and Storytelling

Content is still king. Marketers must be great at creating great copy, video, and interactive content that is appropriate for various platforms and audiences. Emotionally resonant storytelling and brand affection are more critical than ever, particularly as human-created content trumps AI-created content consistently.

Social Media Strategy and Social Commerce Social media is still the foremost driver of digital engagement. Mastering techniques constructed for specific platforms—such as short-form video, live stream, and influencing with influencers—is critical. How to facilitate direct sales through social commerce, built on combining commerce and social interactions, is an area marketers must master.

Marketing Automation

Efficiency is the most critical in 2025. Marketing automation platforms (e.g., Marketo and HubSpot) enable marketers to automate repetitive tasks, nurture leads, and personalize customer journeys at scale.

UX/UI Design Principles

A seamless user experience and a pleasing design can either make or destroy online campaigns. Having UX/UI basics in your knowledge and collaborating with design teams ensures that marketing campaigns are both effective and engaging.

Ethical Marketing and Privacy Compliance

With data privacy emerging as a pressing issue, marketers must stay updated on laws like GDPR and CCPA. Ethical marketing and openness foster trust and avoid legal issues.

To lead in 2025, digital marketers will have to fuse technical skills, creativity, and flexibility. By acquiring these high-impact capabilities-data analysis, SEO, AI, content development, social strategy, automation, UX/UI, and ethical marketing-you'll be at the edge of the constantly evolving digital space

Harnessing Passive Income with CRO Strategies: Insights by cro.media

Boost your landing page's effectiveness with CRO principles and maximize conversions.

Source: https://cro.media/insights/ux-ui/crafting-high-performing-landing-pages-cro-principles/

Passive income represents the epitome of working smarter, not harder, with its potential to supplement earnings and build long-term wealth. At cro.media, we believe that passive income ventures, much like Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO), are about maximizing value from every effort. Here's how CRO principles can amplify passive income strategies.

Transforming Traffic Into Conversions

For many passive income ideas, from dropshipping to affiliate marketing, the key to success lies in effective CRO:

Optimized User Flows: Ensure a seamless journey from discovery to purchase with intuitive navigation and clear calls-to-action (CTAs).

A/B Testing: Experiment with landing pages, product descriptions, and CTAs to identify what drives the most conversions.

Data-Driven Insights: Leverage analytics to understand user behavior and refine strategies to align with audience preferences.

By fine-tuning the user experience, CRO transforms passive income ventures into scalable revenue streams.

Passive Income Meets Automation

Automation is central to both CRO and passive income:

Streamlining Workflows: Use tools to automate repetitive tasks, such as email marketing for digital product sales or ad retargeting for affiliate links. Learn more about Shopify app development.

Predictive Analytics: CRO tools can forecast which strategies will yield the best ROI, allowing you to focus on the most lucrative income streams.

Cross-Selling Opportunities: For dropshipping or print-on-demand stores, automated product recommendations can increase average order value.

Automation minimizes manual intervention, keeping passive income truly passive.

Enhancing Credibility and Trust

Trust is a critical CRO factor, especially for passive income models reliant on online sales or investments:

Social Proof: Showcase customer reviews or user-generated content to validate your offerings.

Secure Transactions: Highlight security features, such as encrypted payment systems, to reassure customers.

Professional Design: A visually appealing, functional website fosters credibility and encourages conversions.

Diversification Through Strategic Insights

Just as CRO encourages testing and adaptation, passive income requires diversification:

Experimentation: Test multiple streams, such as affiliate marketing, digital product sales, or REIT investments, to identify the most profitable avenues.

Audience Segmentation: Use CRO principles to segment audiences and tailor offerings, ensuring relevance and resonance with target groups.

Sustainable Scaling: Focus on scalable models like print-on-demand or stock photography, which grow without proportional increases in effort.

Diversified strategies supported by CRO insights reduce risk and maximize passive income potential.

Maximizing Long-Term Gains

CRO's iterative nature aligns perfectly with building sustainable passive income:

Continuous Improvement: Regularly refine strategies based on performance data, from content adjustments to pricing experiments.

Retention Optimization: Implement loyalty programs or subscription models to maintain consistent revenue streams.

Scalability Focus: Invest in scalable tools and platforms that grow alongside your passive income ventures.

Tangling the web: an upcoming post series (?)

Hey all! Amari here. I'll be starting a post series about web design traits and trends that have become inescapable across the internet, and whether we can internet without them—as users, developers, and designers.

Petri Dish - a weird web experience thing I made.

So, I'm a web developer who's had brief stints in graphic design, and my current PhD research orbits around the theme of virtual spaces and places. I've made websites, I've taught people how to make websites, and I'm something of an avid user of websites myself.

And…well…I'm bored! I'm bored of SEO-driven design. I'm bored of single-flow webpages that start with a giant hero image and end in a shiny call to action button—all designed to channel you as quickly as possible to the part where you subscribe or enter your card details.

(Even this post is formatted like one of them! It wasn't even intentional! It's become ingrained in the way I structure and present my ideas, and that's just a little disturbing.)

These templates are sweeping the landscape like invasive trees. And at the heart of this scourge is the vaunted axiom of "Predictability," which gets peddled in every UI/UX class that is "future-oriented" enough to use that acronym. Predictability lets users learn a new site quickly so they spend money sooner, fosters comfort and familiarity with the idea of spending money, and allows for the development of usage patterns where money is spent.

I get the merits of that axiom; I get that it has a time and place. But when game and webcomic sites look and feel and interact like that, I think we have to ask: Can we imagine something different? Can we slow the takeover of the smooth corpo aesthetic? Can we avert a future where the effective geography of the web, with all its varied terrain and endemic textures, is bulldozed into featureless oblivion?

I think it would be presumptuous to suggest that they're some mythic species of the past that slowly died out, too. A lot of the web experiences we loved well as kids are still right there, or have successors that are! They've just gotten so crowded out, by the combination of corporate sites and corporate-driven search algorithms, that one wonders if they will someday become impossible to stumble upon.

Anyway, the intended post series is born out of these provocations. I'd like to tackle elements of the current schema of "good web design" and contemplate a web without them (hopefully with examples if I can find them):

Predictable layouts, the "F" scan pattern, and calls to action

Discoverability / SEO

Well-formed HTML and well-maintained linkage

Responsive web design

Identity and device tracking

Socially engineering higher engagement through design

Statefulness and timelines

Visually communicating functionality

And I know, all of these things sound like good traits for a site to have. And yes, in most contexts, they are! But I think imagining the web without them is a highly worthwhile exercise anyway.

Anyway, stay tuned if that interests you—I will be posting them to this blog and tagging them with #tangling the web. Alas, my Call to Action reflex could not be denied, and I had to give you an easily actionable instruction at the end of the post.
