Owning your content isn’t about portable software. It’s about portable URLs and data. It’s about domain names.
Cannot say this often enough.
I want to make listening to or subscribing to a podcast as easy as sending an email. Or easier!
A very worthy goal, I don't doubt it. Sounds a bit like the universal Subscribe button that some people think is needed to get #IndieWeb writing going again.
In any event, I wish them much luck and will be attempting to keep an eye on podTo.
I've set out in as much detail as I can understand what is happening when I try to POST a Bookmark with a Description to WithKnown.
And to add insult to injury, I'm adding this Description by hand, so I can include a blockquote:
[I]f you try to POST anything other than the URL of the bookmark, it simply never appears. With the help of good IndieWeb people, especially
and , we worked out what was happening.
And a bit of description
Essentially, the non-semantic web is a balkanised hellscape of competing open and proprietary metadata standards.
And I don't blame him one bit. Moreover, I'm increasingly fed up with the idea of modifying my website to do the work of undoing the Balkan megalomania.
But now here's the thing, when I do this by hand directly in WithKnown, it allows me to post some lines of description.
And a #testtag
But I ddo not seem to be able to do the same thing with micropub. Probably because I am doing it wrong.
