Sites similar to OWOT.
"The Three Sites"
Coined by Lemuria in Our World of News, "The Three Sites" refer to a triad of infinite canvases that are labeled as sister websites of one another.
These consist of Your World of Text and all other websites created by Andrew Badr, or run by prominent users of YWOT.
Most of the following sites were advertised at one time on the Center Console of YWOT.
Your World of Text
Possibly the first infinite canvas on the internet.
YWOT was created in 2009.
Our World of Pixels
Launched by Eldit in 2016, hosted by InfraRaven.
Our World of Text
You are here.
The newer version of OWOT was launched by FP in 2017. It adds a variety of features to the base YWOT code, such as colors, a chatbox and teleportation.
Like OWOP, the new OWOT is also hosted by InfraRaven.
*Old OWOT
Created by Andrew Badr in 2010.
Largely identical to YWOT, except there was no rate limits.
Shut down in 2015 due to funding issues.
*Jotleaf
Created by Andrew Badr in 2012.
Like YWOT and OWOT, Jotleaf was also an infinite canvas where users can write text. In addition to this, they could also add images, embed video/sound files and customize the background.
Jotleaf was also more focused on individual userpages, which users were encouraged to share like more conventional social media blogs.
The site was shut down in 2015 due to funding issues, but an example of a Jotleaf page can still be found at fornowband.org/.
Other Canvas Sites Related to OWOT
Sites that are not considered sister websites of OWOT, but whose userbases have interacted with OWOT in the past.
Textwall.cc
*See also Textwall.
TextBoard.fr
*See also Aywen Migration.
Other Canvas Sites
Walloftext.co
Site where users type in draggable textboxes instead of on the canvas itself.
*See also /the-making-of-wall-of-text-d95f63dada2d.
Ascii Collab
A more lo-fi, art-centric text canvas.
There is an option that lets you highlight edits made by each user in separate colors, and if you click on a patch of text in this mode then all edits from that user is reverted on your end.
Typetobuild.com(3D YWOT)
Currently offline, but the creator plans to reopen it at some point.
OWOT Clones/Instances
OWOT is open source, meaning that many people have created their own instances of the site, some with significant modification.s
