Low-bandwidth links

This is an adaptation of the low-bandwidth links page I had on txti.es. So I'm likely to use this when in an emergency or on a train; you're welcome to use it, too. Washington, D.C. is the default. It’s also a link garden.

I may or may not put some of my pre-2000 webpages here, too. (Just started!) ~wells
