Great talk from Tantek at Beyond Tellerrand this week about the IndieWeb.
I watched Tantek’s presentation Take Back Your Web from Beyond Tellerrand during lunch. Great presentation. From it I added Mattias Ott’s blog post and this one by Aaron Parecki to Unmark to read later. Via Jeremy Keith.
I still need to find time to improve my site’s webmentions. They are terrible.
Tom share’s his thoughts on Tantek’s excellent closing talk at Beyond Tellerrand this week:
Yes, the message of this rather sombre closing talk of this year’s Beyond Tellerrand Conference Düsseldorf is important. Watch it. And then go out, take care of yourself and others, away from the screen. And then come back and publish your own stuff on your own site. Still not convinced? ok, then, please read Matthias Ott’s great article (published on his own site btw), and then start using your own site.
