Interesting reading, though I cannot quite see how the various personae might map onto a single micro.blog site. Nevertheless, I look forward to whatever you come up with.

One question. I know 10C offers Notes and Todos and Photos, but I have never seen anything here that would encourage me to use those facilities. My notes are in nvALT and my todos are on paper and my photos are in lot of places, but they're all on my desktop machine. So why would I want to use those facilities here? And are you sure they are worth keeping in your "silo"?

PESOS from the original site.

If I were any kind of entrepreneur (which I'm not) I'd be figuring out how to hook up with supermarkets -- or even the local greengrocer -- to turn the bananas they throw out into my highly desirable banana bread.

I hear you. There's no way on earth to be precise about the words for a pre-ferment, and I for one tend to use them interchangeably, at least to some extent. Of course, if Reinhart offered precise definitions, even hydrations, of "stiff" and "wet" that would at least make consistency possible. His video on the 12 steps is rather good, and something I show in my workshops.

Nice to see Stacey De Polo set off on her exploration of things , but I find it hard to imagine that as of my reading, not one of her contacts on either Twitter or FB has reacted in any way. I guess some plugin work still needed. Which is part of the reason I am writing this reply.

Chris reminds me, I ought to get something lined up for a global celebration.

I don't know about you, @mdesoucey , but I'm missing out on it being on Facebook.

When I teach writing (which I do), I always say to people, "This is ambiguous. Sure, I can ask you here in class. But most people who read this aren't going to be able to ask you to clarify. They're either going to be confused, or jump to the meaning you don't want them to."

The silly thing is, Dave is there to clarify, and he chooses not to.

We have had an extensive discussion today in irc -dev and I think we are beginning to see what is going on. I will try and summarise here later

Words to live by -- and not just for web developers. Your job is to make it easy for the people who use what you make, not for yourself.

Installed wandering.gs just for the fun of it. It'll be a very dull picture, that's for sure.
