Sites Inspired by YWOT
Your World of Text, created by Andrew Badr in 2009, is believed to be the first infinite canvas on the internet.
Since then it has inspired an assortment of similar websites, each with its own unique features(Ex. copy and pasting, colors, undo button).
JotLeaf and the original Our World of Text were both created by Andrew himself. Meanwhile Our World of Pixels and the modern OWOT were created by prominent YWOT users, making them sister websites of Your World of Text.

Written World was a YWOT-inspired clone launched in 2014 by a programmer named Zach Schwartz for his final thesis project at ITP. It worked similarly to YWOT, with the addition of a real-world street map as the background.
