#Blogpost #IndieWeb
Over the years I and others have experimented with "watch" posts, short notes that express having seen a movie or TV show, sometimes with a link, and brief review or other commentary, like earlier today:

https://tantek.com/2026/214/t1/watched-spider-man-brand-new-day

I was inspired by @Gregorlove.com publishing watch posts, and a few others have also done so, documented on the IndieWeb wiki page for watch posts:

https://indieweb.org/watch

I like to use a leading emoji to indicate a watch post, and perhaps what specific kind of a watch post. After some iteration and reflection, these are the emoji that I have converged on for briefly expressing and distinguishing some watch posts:

🎦 movie in a cinema/theater
▶️ online video whether a brief YouTube clip, an Internet Archive upload of an #IndieWebCamp session, or a movie or show on a streaming service like Netflix.

In addition, I expect to use the following emoji for more specific watch posts:
🎞 analog film viewing, e.g. 70mm IMAX (like Chris Nolan’s The Odyssey)
📀 DVD/Laserdisc
📼 videocassette
📺 television, from over the air broadcast or cable like in a hotel room

In-person live performances:
🎫 concert or music festival
🎭 theater/play, perhaps stand-up comedy
🎟 other ticketed performances

This seems like a good start for both recent movies I’ve seen, and (likely) upcoming shows and events. I had a few thoughts for other possibilities and have added them to the Brainstorming section of that wiki page, where I expect the #indieweb community will iterate further.

Who else publishes watch posts and do you use any emoji to indicate what kind of thing you watched (or where)?

New blog post from me: How much is too much? Or what's the maximum a price should increase?

Prices always seem to increase, how much in total before you think it's too much. When you notice a price increase, do you take a step back and think that's too much of an increase?

Would love to hear your thoughts, if you spot any mistakes or inaccuracies, please let me know.

Abenteuer IndieWeb: Mit P5.js und Phoenix Code nach Neocities

Heute wollte ich gleich zwei Fliegen mit einer Klappe schlagen: Ich wollte einmal wissen, wie gut der von mir neu entdeckte Editor #PhoenixCode mit #P5js, dem JavaScript-Ableger von Processing (Java), zusammenarbeitet. Und zum anderen wollte ich wissen, ob und wie sich P5.js mit #Neocities, dem freundlichen Hoster für meine Flucht ins #IndieWeb verträgt. Spoiler: Ich war beide Male erfolgreich. https://kantel.github.io/posts/2026080102_p5js_phoenix_neocities/ #CreativeCoding

Another month has gone by, and I have once more accumulated the best of my bubble. Enjoy the ride ☺️

I wrote up a wonderful BBC Global video about architect Lina Ghotmeh and her work - https://www.vanderwal.net/random/entrysel.php?blog=2155

The video is really good and what I needed, and need more of.

the Indieweb is really cool☀️

How you got into it, where it’s taken you, why you’re still at it. No template, no fixed questions. Just your story, told however you want to tell it.

#indieWeb #auguStory

🍜 AuguStory, the story of your blog https://robertbirming.com/augustory-story-blog/

Got my HTML on and now the registration via email should be far, well, better, and now you can pick if you want weekly emails, etc. https://sightlessscribbles.com/follow/ #Email #IndieWeb #WebDev #HTML

Two ways in. Same engine.

Type the command if you know what you want:
./blog.sh add

Or run it bare and let it ask:
./blog.sh

The wizard isn't a beginner mode — it's the same commands with a menu in front, and it falls back to plain line prompts in a pipe or over a slow SSH link.

Finished off another article I started on in April.

Designing a 40m full wave loop antenna to fit in my garden.

Brennan Kenneth @brennan reflects on how someone can run a blog or join the IndieWeb from a smartphone.

What I want to figure out is how someone can start a blog, or join the IndieWeb from their phone themselves.

I've been getting reports of folks not being able to access my website due to firewall issues. I cannot remove the firewall blocks due to bots continuously scraping my website. But I'm thinking of offering an alternative. What do you think is a good alternative to access a (completely static) website? #poll #selfhosting #indieweb
