Manuel: At the same time, there’s another type of garden on the web, not a walled one, but a digital one. Personal websites come in many shapes and sizes and the digital garden is one of them.

I know a lot of people hate anti-ad-block popups, but to me they are perfect. In presenting those popups, those websites demonstrate that they realize the lack of control they have.
