Another article on the modern era of blogging surfaced on my RSS feed today.
Jim Nielsen boldly proposes that we live a new golden era of blogging.
I don't know. We modern bloggers inhabit a tiny self-indulging bubble that is not comparable with the original scene, but you know what, I feel comfortable in it.

Musing about #WebComponents and #ColdFusion during the #IndieWeb Homebrew Website Club Europe/London meeting... has anyone used Web Component technology to make a .CFM page work client side?

ok I'm pretty sure my website should be able to receive webmentions now.
@matthiasott Yep! Not only do I have an #RSS feed, I actually have *two*! One for my regular feed of posts and another for my "notes" (short-form stuff).
- Posts feed: https://shellsharks.com/feed.xml
- Notes feed: https://shellsharks.com/note-feed.xml
I love threads like this one because it just gives me an endless list of #RSS feeds to try! Of course, mine us https://robertkingett.com/feed/ #OwnYourWeb #IndieWeb @matthiasott
@swarming whatever you end up with I suggest to walk down the #IndieWeb path.
Here the platform|software does not matter [much] as it's built around principles to stay in control of your content. Starting with your own domain.
Learn more on https://indieweb.org/ and https://indieweb.org/principles
It's your choice how deep the rabbit hole goes but the own domain is important.
This should ease your next escape.
The History of the Web has an interesting take on the resurgence of blogging and the indie web that seems to be occurring these days

Thinking about how best to present various form of content on my personal website.
Currently, I create posts (long-ish) and notes (short, but mostly links). Wondering if I should split links into a distinct post type, and keep notes as «clean» short posts.
Also, current front page doesn’t do it. Messy. Some people do a unified feed for all post types on the front page, but I’m not convinced about that either. Requires much mental sorting to make out what’s what.
Ideas? #indieweb

New post!
What if #AOL still existed? What if the telecommunications act of 1996 never passed? These are questions I answer while having a terrible cold.
You've been warned.
Thanks to @vincentritter for kindly offering me early access to his cool new blog platform #Scribbles. It's really nice. I'm so sorry this is my debut post.

Glitch, Code Jams!
I’m thinking… someone should remix this and offer one with all the #indieweb parts ready to be customized, would be a great way for more blogs joining the movement!
back to basic : own your web!
