One of the reasons I’m loving building my garden of an #IndieWeb blog is pulling all my silo'd posts from Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and everywhere else back into a space I can interact with.
I just came across this this imported tweet https://www.byjp.me/notes/twitter/5653892614/ from 2009, referencing a paper I wrote for my Physics degree and *wow* I don't follow a word of the abstract! What a privilege it is to have this insight into a different me, with a totally different set of skills.
In case you want to easily decrease the data you send to Google, embed YouTube videos differently on your site:

@schizanon Yeah I’ve been trying to catalog some URLs that sites may/should have. Some are more common than others…

Not sure why Hugo removed their accessibility tag for themes, but you can still filter accessibility ready themes here for the moment, but Hugo should really enable the accessibility tag again when browsing for themes https://trentsonlinedocs.xyz/hugo-themes-report/hugo-themes-report.html #Hugo #Accessibility #SmallWeb #IndieWeb
Knee deep in transition from Hugo / micro.blog to @getkirby and Mastodon.
Have about 20 years worth of data to load back in, but the content structure is largely built.
In the interim, here are some photos of my #podenco on the hydrotherapy treadmill.

Trying out @ben's new app to easily #ShareOpenly to any social platform, including those that might not yet be included in standard sharing mechanisms, like a specific Mastodon or #IndieWeb site or Bluesky: https://werd.io/2024/share-openly
I gather that the /about page in #aboutideasnow is supposed to be about the author, but what about the site? What url do we use to talk about the tools we used to build the site?
I like the concept of #aboutideasnow. It feels like #microformats, but for URLs. It's kinda weird how few conventions the #web has for urls. Aside from index.html, robots.txt, and favicon.ico there are very few standard URLs that many sites support.

Damn i was about to miss the #indiewebCarnival this month, and it's about two topics that I hold dear: the #indieweb and #accessibility. New blogpost coming over the weekend (https://grgml.xyz/status/2024/3/29/99559441/)
Integrating my website into the IndieWeb took longer than expected due to scattered resources and confusion. Should I do X or Y? Having too many options to choose from can lead to paralysis.
We don't want that, do we?
We want something simple, something that allows as many people as possible to get on board. An omakase 🍱.
Here's mine. You should start and finish everything within an hour at most!

Thinking of going in this direction for #geminiprotocol #webmentions. In short: send #titanprotocol requests to an endpoint with the target page as part of the parameters. The receiving server will verify the incoming request then store in a database. Finally, the server can generate comment pages on demand, or create static gemtext files. Then you just link to the comments from your gemlog posts.
Integration with webmentions themselves will require an HTML page that corresponds to the Gemini page, and both pages will need to be able to prove they're controlled by the same person. Then, the server will proxy incoming web mentions to the Titan endpoint.
Repo and thoughts so far:

Because there are 88 keys on a standard piano, the 88th day of the year was established as a day to “celebrate the piano and everything around it: performers, composers, piano builders, tuners, movers and most important, the listener”.
There are multiple websites about Piano Day:
* https://www.pianoday.org/
* https://www.worldpianoday.com/
And related #socialMedia and other profiles:
* https://www.instagram.com/pianodayofficial/
* https://linktr.ee/PianoDay
* Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2v022joEJ1ZUPi99NHDVNm?si=mmT4rDchTzW60KC3lsTksQ&nd=1&dlsi=2a348a57822c4217
I appreciate that Piano Day is on an ordinal day of the year (88th) rather than a Gregorian date (e.g. 8/8 or August 8th) which is subject to leap year variances. The 88th day of the year is the 88th day regardless whether it is a leap year or not.
From a standards perspective, we can express today’s Piano Day as 2024-088, an ISO ordinal date², however there is no standard date format for just "the 88th day of a year" without specifying a year (yearless).
There is (was) a way to specify a yearless month and day, like you might see as a birthday displayed on a social media site, without disclosing the year, or an annual holiday like May Day³, that is May 1st, without a specific year:
--05-01
This yearless date format (--MM-DD or shorthand --MMDD) was supported in the ISO 8601:2000 standard, but then dropped in the 2004 revision. This omission or deliberate removal was an error, because there are both obvious human visible use-cases (communicating holidays, and yearless birthdays as noted above), and other standards already depended on this yearless date format syntax (e.g. vCard⁴ and specs that refer to it like hCard and h-card).
Every version of ISO 8601 since 2000 has this flaw. Fixing (or patching) #ISO8601 is worth a separate post.
Returning to yearless ordinal dates, since they lack an interchange syntax, we can define one resembling the yearless month day format, yet unambiguously parseable as a yearless ordinal date:
---DDD
e.g. Piano Day would be represented as:
---088
We have to use three explicit digits because there's also pre-existing "day of the month" and "month of the year" syntaxes which are very similar, but with two digits:
--MM
---DD
This yearless #ordinalDate syntax (---DDD) is worth proposing as a delta "repair" spec to ISO 8601 (use-cases: Piano Day and others like Programmer’s Day⁵), alongside at least a restoration of the --MM-DD yearless month day syntax (use-cases: publishing holidays and yearless birthdays), perhaps also the ---DD day of the month and --MM month of the year syntaxes (use-case: language independent numerical publishing of Gregorian months and days of months), and propose adding a NewCal bim of the year syntax --B (numerically superior replacement for Gregorian months and quarters).
