The Public Interest Tech Webring is a collection of blogs dedicated to civic tech, public interest tech, government tech policy, and similar topics. You can view all of the members on the main page.
You may request your site to be added to the webring if it meets the following criteria:
-
The majority of the content must be relevant to the topics listed above.
-
The site must be a personal site, not for a business. If you've got your own consulting company or a book, that's ok.
-
The primary content must be free and accessible. You may not require a user to login, create an account, or pay to view your posts.
-
We strongly recommend you have a working RSS feed of your posts that's discoverable (
linktag in the head or similar). -
You must display the webring banner on your blog, preferably in the header or footer of each page.
To join the webring, please open a request to add a new site through GitHub issues.
After you're approved, check out the Join page on the main website to get your webring code snippet.
