Weird.one frontpage

Open erlend-sh opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

We need a sparse but eye-catching landing page to greet our earliest adopters. These visitors will be preloaded with some context when they arrive on our site, so we don't yet have to worry about perfectly pitching Weird under the assumption of zero prior knowledge.

The page should cover:

  • Weird speed intro (header + tagline)
  • Signup prompt (biolink url-claimer style for now?)
  • Further reading (info boxes and links to dedicated explainers for Big Three)
  • Weird brand identity

First draft:

Weird

Your home on the internet (cybernet/hinterweb/indieweb) [flash intermittently between the default internet and any of the other terms, in their own unique style.] Your internet passport

[sign up]

Weird is..

  • your personal space in the web; magic website creation.
  • a public ID card; independent 'social sign-in' for the indie web.
  • (..which together enable) a network of shared purpose

I'm playing around with a few different tag lines. It's easy enough to capture the essence of 'ID card' + 'social sign-in'. It's hard to also hint at the NoSP in a one-liner, but it may not be necessary, since the Weird experience doesn't start there.
