I’m building ElseWhere, a community-driven map where people pin places, moods, and music.

No ads. No algorithm. Just wandering.

Recent updates: night mode, filters, multi-image uploads, and Spotify embeds.

I did a writeup of my re-watch of β€œAlien” (1979) for this month's IndieWeb movie club. I talk about some of the sound design, and a portion of the score that I noticed sounds surprisingly like BartΓ³k.

Thanks @alabut for hosting this month!

Digital Self-Reliance: News & Information

The freedom to share information world wide is what made the internet great. So, why do we allow tech bros, social media, and AI to limit or even control what news and information see. It's time to we rely less on these predatory platforms and curate our own news and information experience with RSS.

Question for folks into #SSG and #webdev, what's a reliable+stable option these days?

I will be updating a website with weekly content updates by someone not tech-savvy at all. They are only comfortable with Word, unfortunately.

I was thinking a static site generator with automatic deployment when pushed to a repo? But I can't settle on a CMS that is super easy to use. Are there options that are really simple to use i.e. - add new pages, edit existing page contents, add PDFs and images??

What would you suggest?

Spending some time pondering site navigation for my new website. Must reflect: indie web values, high accessibility for all kinds of browsers & readers, simplicity and elegance. And not be a pig to code and maintain.

My latest rewind is up, where I summarize the blog posts I wrote this month, recommend some entertainment titles worth checking out (including The Pitt and The Studio, among others), and share a few interesting links.

It is always a joy when I see something like this in my web server access logs. People still use Yahoo, and here someone used it to reach my first ever open source project.

Like most people probably reading this, #IndieWeb is a topic I'm interested in. Portability and identity ownership matter way more than just self-hosting.

Also, I have thoughts on why #Mastodon isn't quite there yet compared to the "gold standard" of email.
