Inspired by the Now page concept created by @sivers, I've finally published /now on my #PersonalWebsite! https://bm.gy/now
Had to tweak my #StaticSiteGenerator just a bit to accommodate this unique new post type: The latest post will always be displayed in full at /now, with past entries eventually appearing as a simple list right below it.
That was a fun technical exercise as well as a nice excuse to reflect. Highly recommended!

If you don't have an RSS feed (or a JSONfeed), I probably won't read your blog. I don't like getting newsletters: too much stuff in my inbox already.

Starting work on IndieAuth for Jottit today. Building authorization and token endpoints so people can publish from any Micropub client. Love how the IndieWeb specs are small and focused: each one does one thing well, and they compose beautifully together.
First up: a simple consent screen and some JSON files for tokens. File-based storage makes this remarkably straightforward. #indieweb

so i'd love an open discussion about something that i don't have much vocabulary for, if only because there are so few examples of it on the world wide web. anyone/everyone is welcome to chime in.
back in the mid/late 90s there were some attempts at turning web forums and chat interfaces into virtual worlds. beyond all of the 3d chat rooms and telnet muds, there were some 2d graphical sites like moo.ca. The Canada SchoolNet moo was a mud/moo that allowed users to add/remove/modify rooms in real time, in-browser.
snapshot archived here - click 'Web Walkthrough' to walk around:
https://web.archive.org/web/20010417181313/http://www.moo.ca/home
Furcadia went a hundred steps further and integrated a 2d tile-based world with a world editor *and* script editor, so you could build your own "dreams" (multiplayer instances) within the shared game world. the entire game was built around socialization.
both of the above games are not just fancy web chat terminals. building and decorating the game world is a critical part of the social experience. you create a dining room, put chairs in it, program the chairs to allow players to use the 'sit' command, and then invite people into your dining room for a make-believe dinner party.
we now have reddit and various web forums. they're effectively the same threaded conversation that has been around since the usenet days.
what i *don't* see anymore are graphical WWW virtual worlds built around socialization. we either lock down everything and only allow chat. are there web-based MUDs/MUSHes/MOOs that allow for both world building *and* conversation?

Inspired by the #BloggingChallenge from @hryggrbyr on the oldest things we own, I thought of a related challenge: Things I Lost That I Wish I Still Had: https://davidmeissner.com/blog/things-i-lost-or-gave-away
