@noffle I know absolutely nothing about server admin but I am very happy using bits of indieweb. There is also micro.blog which is even more accessible than WithKnown.

Jeremy Cherfas

It worked! Well done. Are you also in the IndieWeb IRC/Slack?





Jeremy Cherfas

I'm a late adopter on IndieWeb readers, I freely confess. Maybe I should make the effort now. Well, not now, because I'll be out of circulation for a bit, but soon.

Seems to me that your home page is great as a professional About page. Just add some markup like an h-card. You have a contact form, which is important, what more do you need?

An IndieWeb Book Club is a really interesting idea for people who like that sort of thing, but I am a bit Groucho Marx about clubs. I may get around to the book, or I may not, but right now I will watch from the sidelines.

@rdwrt Not really, because it is an unconference. The sessions on the first day are offered by the people who are there and adjusted to suit people, and the second day is a hack day devoted to IndieWeb projects. Some more details at https://indieweb.org/IndieWebCamps/Attendance

Replied to a post on medium.com :

Very hard to believe that Tanner Campbell chose to put his very IndieWeb idea about podcasting on Medium rather than on his own domain. Of course, the idea will never work because the big players don't need it and the small ones won't hurt anyone by witholding their labour.






Jeremy Cherfas

This news of a site for IndieWeb on Textpattern is very exciting. I used to use TXP back in the day for one of my sites, but moved it to WP. Maybe I'll move it back ...

“Amazingly, the link still works” 

Two amazing things

1) In a piece looking back over 1000 of his linkblog posts, Charles Arthur finds it remarkable that a link from 2010 still works.

2) The piece seems to be on Medium and nowhere else.

I reckon the two observatiuons are linked (haha). Which makes me wonder whether to even share this link. Will it still work in 2028? Or would Charles be better of owning his stuff somewhere else?
