Hello from IndieWebCamp Baltimore!

Fears of the IndieWeb

Most of my online friends and acquaintances will never understand or participate in the IndieWeb, and so I require a bridge between these worlds. On one side I choose what content to post and how it is stored, and it exists mainly on an island that few visit regularly. On the other side is nearly everyone I know, blissfully ignorant of my real home on the web and unable to see any content shared there without manual intervention or working plugins.

This does not all seem bad, though. Maintaining control will require more attention be placed on managing my content, and this time must come from somewhere. I imagine that I’ll slowly begin using social media less, writing more, and learning more about how to develop solutions to problems that arise within my setup.

January 7, 2018 18:41# I debated using Webmentions but ultimately decided no comments this time. Let people respond thoughtfully with a post of their own. Bring blogging back. :-) — Chris Shiflett (@shiflett) January 7, 2018 that’s what a webmention is – a post on my blog in reply to someone else’s post. Just like how I’m using my site to create this reply that goes to Twitter.
