What’s this “Duane’s World” all about anyway?

Duane’s World is a homage to the days of a more simple internet. Before the web was owned by billionaires, and we owned our own data. Visit the links below to follow along. I spent 25 years working in corporate retail, and when I became a father it changed my life. 

So, about me. I’m from Florida. I spent most of my life trying to complicate things, and when I became a father it changed my life. I became passionate about times that were more simple.  During the pandemic I, like most, fell into the social media world’s trap. I became angry, disenchanted, and quite frankly depressed as hell over the world that the algorithms were showing me. This is when I found the Indie Web, and realized MILLIONS of others were just like me. That’s why I’ve started up on Neocities to link to this site. I would like to think I will be transitioning there soon, but I cannot just yet. I did also create a “Google Sites” page before I realized that completely violated the purpose of the indieweb. To see the Google site go here.

For more than 20 years, I have been actively selling on multiple marketplaces such as eBay and Bonanza, as well as my own websites. Also an amateur blogger of the supernatural, so check that out here at Midnight Ghostlights

One of my passions is helping those who were like me, trapped where they thought there was no way out of their situations in their lives. Probably why I am finishing up my social work degree.

There will be a lot more to come on my indie site journey. Bookmark me and keep up with all the cool stuff I will be doing!

For now, my linktree has more about me. I’m probably going to keep it as a backup for all my links along with Neocities, but now I am complicating things again. 😂
