When I moved to a new town last year I sadly found that the silos of Meetup and Facebook were the best places to find out about events and what was going on.</p>\n<p>Though it might take a while for the world to move away from listing their events in these platforms, in the <a href=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/20200401214906-build_the_new_world_in_the_shell_of_the_old.html\">interim</a> I would like a way of finding out about interesting events without having to visit lots of disparate sites around the Internet to find them. So a good place to try and get this would be in my <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/social_reader\">social reader</a>.</p>\n\n\n<h3>Meetup</h3>\n\n<p>One big source of events is <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/meetup.com\">Meetup</a>. The service is going down a slippery slope of sales to corporates (first to WeWork, <a href=\"https://www.reuters.com/article/us-wework-divestment-meetup/wework-sells-social-network-meetup-to-alleycorp-private-investors-idUSKBN21H2K6\">recently to some private investors</a>), so what better time to avoid as much as possible.</p>\n<p>As Jamie discussed in the London session, <a href=\"https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/08/31/microformats-meetup/\">he has built a service</a> that wraps Meetup\u2019s API and can give you any Meetup groups\u2019 list of events, or any particular individual event, in Microformats.</p>\n<p>To do that, very handily, you can just take any event or event list from Meetup and change the domain to his service at: <a href=\"https://meetup-mf2.jvt.me/\">meetup-mf2.jvt.me</a></p>\n<p>So, say, I am interested in finding out about events from <a href=\"https://www.meetup.com/Lancaster-Digital-Friday-Coffee/events/\">www.meetup.com/Lancaster-Digital-Friday-Coffee/events/</a>, so I just need to go to <a href=\"https://meetup-mf2.jvt.me/Lancaster-Digital-Friday-Coffee/events/\">meetup-mf2.jvt.me/Lancaster-Digital-Friday-Coffee/events/</a> and I get a feed of the events in MF2. Nice!</p>\n<p>Now I have the mf2 I can a feed into my reader. I created a new Events channel in <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/Aperture\">Aperture</a> and subscribed to the link in this channel.</p>\n<p>Now they show up in my reader!</p>\n\n\n\n<h3>IndieWeb events</h3>\n\n<p>I can also subscribe to events from other feeds of events (e.g. <a href=\"https://events.indieweb.org/\">events.indieweb.org</a>). I don\u2019t think there\u2019s a way to subscribe to a Facebook event feed. That would be rad though, to get that feed into my reader.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Better display of event posts in readers</h3>\n\n<p>The social readers don\u2019t seem completely aware of the event type at present. (Indigenous does allow you to RSVP to them).</p>\n<p>One wrinkle at present is that the Meetup I am following, all of the events were created to be recurring about 3 years ago. So their published/updated date is 3 years ago, even though the event\u2019s start date might be next week. The readers seem to mostly work off of published date at the moment.</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/pulling_the_events_into_my_social_reader/2020-03-15_10-52-14_3tfH9i4.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_10-52-14_3tfH9i4.png\" /><img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/pulling_the_events_into_my_social_reader/2020-03-15_10-50-35_ylXBC2o.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_10-50-35_ylXBC2o.png\" /><p>It could be good if readers might have a calendar view for events, like they have special Gallery or Map views.

I can create an RSVP on my own site, linking to the page where the event is listed, and the RSVP gets sent over and recorded on the event page.</p>\n<p>For something like Meetup, which doesn\u2019t accept webmentions for RSVPs natively, we have to do some work there ourselves.</p>\n<p>But thanks to <a href=\"https://brid.gy/\">Bridgy</a> and the <a href=\"https://www.jvt.me/posts/2020/02/17/meetup-bridgy-support/\">recent Meetup integration that Jamie added to it</a>, we can do it!</p>\n\n\n<h3>Setting up the Bridgy connection</h3>\n\n<p>First up you\u2019ll want to go to <a href=\"https://brid.gy/\">brid.gy</a> and connect it to your Meetup account:</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/RSVPing_and_POSSEing_to_Meetup/2020-03-15_11-54-45_n2fyxL8.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_11-54-45_n2fyxL8.png\" /><img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/RSVPing_and_POSSEing_to_Meetup/2020-03-15_11-55-54_W6qM8OO.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_11-55-54_W6qM8OO.png\" /><p>Once it\u2019s connected, if you create an RSVP post, you can send a webmention to Bridgy about it, and Bridgy will send that RSVP to Meetup. Let\u2019s give it a go.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3>2.2 Creating an RSVP post</h3>\n\n<p>For me in WordPress creating an RSVP post is all already taken care of by Post Kinds.</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/RSVPing_and_POSSEing_to_Meetup/2020-03-15_12-01-58_VvzVnIC.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_12-01-58_VvzVnIC.png\" /><p>One really nice feature of Post Kinds is it uses <a href=\"https://github.com/dshanske/parse-this\">Parse This</a> behind the scenes to pull in contextual information about the event you\u2019re RSVPing to. Just chuck the URL in the URL box and it\u2019ll pull the data back.</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/RSVPing_and_POSSEing_to_Meetup/2020-03-15_12-05-00_P2xWG7u.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_12-05-00_P2xWG7u.png\" /><p>Save the post and you have your RSVP \u2013 all owned on your own site for your safekeeping and historical pleasure.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Sending your RSVP to Bridgy</h3>\n\n<p>We usually want to tell the event host that we\u2019re going to their event. We want to send our RSVP to them. For Meetup, our RSVP goes via Bridgy.</p>\n<p>You can manually tell Bridgy about a post you\u2019ve made that you want it to do something with. This is a handy way of testing it out, and that\u2019s what I did with my first RSVP:</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/RSVPing_and_POSSEing_to_Meetup/2020-03-15_12-11-47_MDOuZPS.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_12-11-47_MDOuZPS.png\" /><p>I hit Send there, got a success message, and\u2026 lo and behold\u2026</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/RSVPing_and_POSSEing_to_Meetup/2020-03-15_12-14-05_fJmF3IQ.png\" alt=\"2020-03-15_12-14-05_fJmF3IQ.png\" /><p>I\u2019ve found out about an event on Meetup, and RSVPed, without actually visiting!</p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Smoother POSSEing</h3>\n\n<p>I would like to have the option to push my RSVP to Meetup without having to go to Bridgy and put the URL in manually each time. And you can do that of course. The magic happens via the Webmention and Syndication Links plugins. You can turn it on in your IndieWeb settings in the WordPress dashboard.</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/Own_your_RSVPs:_RSVPing_and_POSSEing/2020-04-03_18-53-51_IklUOEZ.png\" alt=\"2020-04-03_18-53-51_IklUOEZ.png\" /><p>Now when you create a new RSVP, you can have it sent to Bridgy automatically:</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/Own_your_RSVPs:_RSVPing_and_POSSEing/2020-04-03_18-56-15_3WBfJ1q.png\" alt=\"2020-04-03_18-56-15_3WBfJ1q.png\" /><p>Boom!</p>\n<p>Some social readers (e.g. Indigenous) also support RSVPing from within the reader themselves.</p>\n<img src=\"https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/Screenshot_2020-04-03-19-00-17.png\" alt=\"Screenshot_2020-04-03-19-00-17.png\" /><p>So you can just hit RSVP in your reader and create the RSVP there and then.</p>\n\n\n\n\n<h2>Bonus features</h2>\n\n<p>A couple of nice-to-haves around events and RSVPs.</p>\n\n\n<h3>Agenda page</h3>\n\n<p>Seb has an <a href=\"https://seblog.nl/agenda\">agenda page</a> \u2013 a page with a list of his RSVPs. I think this is a nice way of helping with event discoverability. You could follow the agendas of people you know, and see when they RSVP to interesting events.</p>\n<p>This comes out-of-the-box with <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/Post_Kinds_Plugin\">Post Kinds</a> again. Each post kind gets it\u2019s own archive page \u2013 so for example, <a href=\"https://doubleloop.net/kind/rsvp/\">doubleloop.net/kind/rsvp/</a> is a list of my RSVPs. I added a simple redirect from <a href=\"https://doubleloop.net/agenda\">doubleloop.net/agenda</a> to that page.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3>iCal feed</h3>\n\n<p>Jamie has written about how he created an <a href=\"https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/07/27/rsvp-calendar/\">iCal feed of his RSVPs</a>. I\u2019d like to do this too, to pull the events I\u2019ve RSVPed to into my calendar. I haven\u2019t done it yet, but it should be fairly simple \u2013 just parse through my \u2018yes\u2019 RSVPs, pull out the dates from the associated event, and turn it into iCal markup.</p>",

I added a simple redirect from doubleloop.net/agenda to that page.\n\n\n\niCal feed\n\nJamie has written about how he created an iCal feed of his RSVPs. I\u2019d like to do this too, to pull the events I\u2019ve RSVPed to into my calendar. I haven\u2019t done it yet, but it should be fairly simple \u2013 just parse through my \u2018yes\u2019 RSVPs, pull out the dates from the associated event, and turn it into iCal markup."

Since indiewebify.me can be some people\u2019s first exposure to the indieweb, I think it is important that we don\u2019t give the impression that indieweb = you have to be a developer. We should provide clear, inviting calls to action for non-developers.\n\nSince it is largely a set of validators, I wonder if that should be part of the messaging, too. Something like \u201cIndieWebify.me: indieweb validators for developers\u201d?\n\nWhat are your thoughts?",
