@BarnabyWalters
New website is live! It's been a long time coming. I'll release the useful bits of code soon, probably not the whole thing #indieweb

aaronpk
barnabywalters: congrats on launching the new site!
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: thanks! been a long time in the making. It was identi.ca domain name mixups which finally pushed me over the edge
#
barnabywalters
I think I have a publishing UI to rival yours now :)
#
aaronpk
wonderful!
#
aaronpk
how come I can see your "post a note" form when I'm logged in to your site?
#
barnabywalters
did you see the autocomplete demo video?
#
aaronpk
what does that do exactly?
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: yep, that's a bug :)
#
aaronpk
wasn't sure
#
barnabywalters
nothing, hopefully! apart from give you a demo of my UI
#
barnabywalters
I'll fix that now
#
aaronpk
the autocomplete is pretty good!
#
barnabywalters
I made a load of tweaks to the old jQuery plugin to make it fit my requirements
#
barnabywalters
soon it will pull in @names for autocompletion from my CardDAV so I can administer them from any CardDAV client
#
barnabywalters
my @name -> hcard function already does that, just not on the client side yet
#
barnabywalters
okay, the new note form shouldn't appear for you now
#
aaronpk
hrm i'ts still there
#
barnabywalters
it's a JS change, might be cached
#
aaronpk
yep. apparently the old hard-refresh shortcut doesn't work anymore
#
barnabywalters
which browser? shift-command-R seems to work alright for me in safari
#
barnabywalters
although even manually refreshing the cache is inconsistent
#
aaronpk
yea, command shift R in chrome
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: do you have keyboard shortcuts on your site?
#
aaronpk
well yes
#
aaronpk
left and right arrows to navigate between notes and pages
#
barnabywalters
I just implemented some accesskeys for the main nav. Might to something similar for prev/next
#
aaronpk
right arrow follows the link with rel="next" and left arrow follows rel="prev"
#
barnabywalters
that sounds like a sensible implementation

Interesting passage from the twitter display <del>guidelines</del> requirements:
#
barnabywalters
However, for linking an avatar, name, and @username, hashtag, you may also choose to link to an internal representation within your application. However, this internal representation must have a link back to the core experience on twitter.com or an official Twitter client in some manner.
#
aaronpk
how nice of them
#
barnabywalters
so actually, indieweb usage (replacing @names with h-cards) is perfectly valid, seeing as the linked pages will almost certainly link back to twitter
#
barnabywalters
not that I particularly care about following their rules
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: any plans to extend your twitter reply rewriting to other services and verbs?
#
aaronpk
haven't thought about it yet, but what were you thinking?
#
barnabywalters
I had a similar web-actions-oriented idea a while ago but got really bogged down in making an admin interface instead of actually making it work
#
barnabywalters
I was thinking of adding reply links to any h-cards
#
barnabywalters
s/h-cards/h-entry
#
Loqi
barnabywalters meant to say: I was thinking of adding reply links to any h-entry
#
barnabywalters
and other twitter links, e.g. favourite
#
aaronpk
ah yea, that'd be neat
#
barnabywalters
actually I need to blog about my interpretation of web actions. I need to make sure it syncs up with other people's visions for it
#
barnabywalters
I see it pretty much as client side webhooks
#
aaronpk
i'd be interested to hear your thoughts on it
#
aaronpk
i haven't spent much time on that aspect yet
#
aaronpk
i should make a list of all the aspects of an indieweb site I want to implement, and have little progress bars next to each one based on what i've implemented
#
aaronpk
oh wait, that sounds like the indierank thing tantek was talking about
#
barnabywalters
woo progress bars!
#
tommorris
Oh yeah, I was thinking today about building an Android posting app. open source, like, so people could nick it and customise it for themselves.
#
aaronpk
indiemark*
#
tommorris
but I had an idea: using the phone's address book for storing friend's URLs
#
aaronpk
tommorris: is there a wordpress android app?
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: my ideal for indierank would be essentially an automated test suite
#
tommorris
so if I start typing "Barnab", it'd autocomplete and use the stored URL in the address book entry. ;-)
#
barnabywalters
tommorris: have you seen my nearly cardDAV based web autocomplete?
#
tommorris
I saw the autocomplete demos. haven't seen the CardDAV implementation yet
#
barnabywalters
I am doing pretty much what you're suggesting, just not in an android app (no idea how to do java)
#
barnabywalters
tommorris: basically I have a cardDAV processing script, I just need to pull those results in to the autocomplete database
#
tommorris
I've done Java for work, and this might be an opportunity to learn Android API.
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: RE indiemark: So we'd have a test user script which tries subscribing to a user, tries sending Salmon slaps, checks h-card info etc.
#
barnabywalters
Then instead of an arbitrary mark, we'd have a test result of the features the tested domain supports
#
aaronpk
that's not a bad idea!
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: I had a feeling learning automated testing would change the way I thought about stuff :)
#
aaronpk
that'd be really fun to see. it's like the microformats validators on steroids
#
aaronpk
the google webmaster rich snippets testing tool is really useful, but only checks a couple things
#
barnabywalters
could it be done using actual integration testing tools, do you think?
#
barnabywalters
I've only just started using them (like, yesterday) and don't know if it's possible
#
aaronpk
hmm, probably I suppose
#
aaronpk
which one are you using?
#
tommorris
Salmon slap?
#
barnabywalters
tommorris: yeah, it's some old (2010) protocol for sending signed messages
#
barnabywalters
statusnet (and friendica, I think, as well as D*) implement it
#
aaronpk
speaking of salmons, did you ever write up your understanding of the protocol?
#
barnabywalters
I haven't yet, but I've tested out the envelope signing code
#
barnabywalters
aaronpk: I haven't even started implementing it yet! had higher priorities
#
barnabywalters
now my new site is live I should be able to get a test implementation working
#
barnabywalters
btw aaronpk, did you know readability parses h-atom?
