I'm an early bird, but as of tomorrow I am on Holidays and will be camping (lux camping) with my family for a week, so I need to post now or never:

Here is my call for the IndieWeb Blog Carnival submission for August!

Looking forward to all the posts! ๐ŸŒˆ

I dug out an #iMacG4 that has been untouched in the loft for 15 years. Turned it on and it said a little triple tone and flashed it's little light. After a reset it came properly to life and updated OS. Found Safari doesn't like Https sites, so loaded #Aquafox and she works fine, if slowly.

Reckon she'll be a good thing to test the #indieweb site I'll be building, though I will plug her into the fibre broadband, not a #dialup modem (can you still get on line with one?)

The prettiest Mac ever ๐Ÿ˜น

Writing Glow Up

This week, I tried to update some of my outdated workflows and it did not go as planned.

Wrote about how difficult it is to find time with myself and writing. I rambled a bit... but love how my thoughts flow with my new pen. ๐Ÿ˜

thank you #kiki users for your gracious patience over the past few months ๐Ÿ™

kiki v1.1.0 is now available on itch. it includes many new requested features, including preliminary support for the gopher protocol.

if you haven't heard of kiki before: it's a tiny home page construction set written to be fast and easy to modify. it's my response to 20 years of dealing with the bloated, frustrating, and exhausting world of wordpress and other heavyweight CMSes.

if you're into writing things with just a text editor, then uploading your document over ftp - then kiki is for you.

(conversely, if you're into dragging and dropping widgets in a massive javascript interface - kiki is *not* for you ๐Ÿ˜†)

https://tomodashi.com/kiki

truth be told, gopher support may or may not survive the year. it's an absolutely gnarly protocol that barely deserves to be called one - there are SO many different implementations and revisions. i tried to implement only what made sense to me, and it's basic at best.

Celebrate #HTMLDay with us in #Bristol on August 2nd ๐ŸŽˆ

We'll be having a picnic to learn about and share the simplicity and understated beauty of HTML.
No experience is necessary, but bring a laptop if you want to write some HTML.
There will be some snacks ๐Ÿช ๐Ÿงƒ

@xandra thinking about this and some of the comments and places they lead, I've been reading about #IndieWeb. I well remember dial up and how the #worldWideWeb seemed so exciting, so domain acquired cutlerweb is in the making. Nothing to see yet, give me a year or two hehe.

Want to share your HTML creations and HTML Day inspired art with the Philly community? We'd be happy to collect any contributions to showcase back on the site :) If you end up making a html page during or after the event, or just think your art would vibe deeply with Philly grit regardless of whether you're from Philly, send it our way. Just keep in mind that we're limited in the file sizes we can work with, so we might also talk about image compression etc. before posting. For inspiration on what to make with HTML, you can check out the past #SundaySites prompts and submit to their collection too.

@ragman and I will be hosting HTML Day in Philadelphia! It's going to be a bit of an improv so you'll help shape what happens :)

Come hang out and write some HTML with us. Art supplies to share would be appreciated. Feel free to turn this into an impromptu distro of masks, zines, or anything else you have to share.

Can't make it in person? Check out the online event https://lunaseeker.com/events/htmlday25

The web should be easy -

At least that's what I think.
