Things about the web.
[Chromium's Web Vitals] is a Google initiative to log a variety of
information about a website served over the internet, particularly to assess the
website's behavior and efficiency in Google Chrome. [The library] offers
an easy-to-use way to disseminate performance to a series of values, locally or

Namespace For The Decentralized Web] is an article pleading for an

resolve unique domain names with proof of work - this is not dissimilar to ENS.
[Planktos]
allows users to serve content from users directly to other users by cacheing
static files as a torrent. It's a cool peer-to-peer system that can cache
both simple and complex static sites!
