@artlung Personally, I can't wait for the microsub spec to go mainstream. I think it'll open up a whole new renaissance for feed readers. https://indieweb.org/Microsub #RSSlives

Brendan Dawes - Post from Instagram to Kirby

Brendan shows how he uses IFTTT and a webhook to post to his own site from Instagram. I think I might set up something similar to post from Untappd to my own site.

Sadly, that developer left Facebook. #Indieweb

Say hello to Indigenous for #android! :) https://github.com/swentel/indigenous-android #indieweb

Wait... What?! There's a reading plugin for @WithKnown? It appears to be based on Jonathan LaCour's Food plugin, but portends some interesting new "read" post functionality within the IndieWeb community.

🎧 Listened to “An Indieweb Podcast Episode 0” by David Shanske and Chris Aldrich.

I really enjoyed this pilot episode! I was particularly interested in some of the discussion around annotations for audio. I think I’ll spend some time noodling on using Jon Udell’s clipping tool to generate shareable snippet URLs, and updating my webmention handling to try and turn mentions with media fragment timestamps into pretty annotations.

Twenty.

Congratulations, Jason—twenty years of kottke.org is a hell of an achievement!

I’ve been reading back through the early archives (which I wouldn’t recommend), and it feels like excavating down through layers of sediment, tracing the growth & evolution of the web, a media format, and most of all, a person.

On the “login” page where it asks for your url, it should have a button called “what’s this?”

That button opens up either an app based tutorial or a website tutorial that explains from a High Level the idea of IndieAuth and Micropub and links to some Micropub servers that can be used. (Right now probably micro.blog and Known)

Errors should be returned when attempting to login that make sense to a user that doesn’t understand IndieAuth or Micropub, but also provide a link to Micropub.rocks that helps diagnose the issue

The center left is my Micropub/Microsub app I’m building called Indigenous, and the center right is a location tracking app built by @aaronpk called Overland

I think that this is 💯% correct. There is a long way to go, but I think the path is not completely clear. I kind of feel like Wordpress is a Gen 2 tool. I might be wrong. But it feels like the solution to this is not just making Wordpress plugins better.

I think it is something that has: easy one-click install approach (better if no install needed but I think that’s still a ways off), a straight forward configuration/settings screen.

I think that means IF this solution is based in Wordpress, it probably means creating a simplified Admin Theme with the traditional Wordpress Admin Theme as an optional switch in “advanced settings”.

I wonder to some extent if Drupal is a good solution, however I don’t know about the one-click installation possibilities of that. I almost think either Known being further refined or an “original IndieWeb focused CMS”. However the IndieWeb is so big there are many diverse opinions as to what something like that would be like.

I lean towards those later two options: Refining Known or developing a new simple IndieWeb principled CMS, incorporating things like flat file storage and/or SQLite. With the idea of keeping it low configuration and maintenance.

@fionajvoss I haven't seen many people automating syndication to places like Yelp, Amazon, or Goodreads, but I've done it manually in the past. Some potential examples and help here: https://indieweb.org/review
Given the Facebook data breach you may be wondering which apps have access to your data from social network silos? Can't find where the administrator links are buried? #indieweb has the links for you https://indieweb.org/appaccess
Just set up @ExistApp to pull my caffeine/alcohol (https://aaronparecki.com/drank) and bike rides (https://aaronparecki.com/rides) from my website! Was a relatively painless experience parsing the Microformats on my website and converting to API requests!
