# 17:14 donpdonp and indieweb vs tent.io blog post would be interesting

# 19:32 aaronpk barnabywalters: congrats on launching the new site!
# 19:33 barnabywalters aaronpk: thanks! been a long time in the making. It was identi.ca domain name mixups which finally pushed me over the edge
# 19:34 aaronpk how come I can see your "post a note" form when I'm logged in to your site?
# 19:35 barnabywalters I made a load of tweaks to the old jQuery plugin to make it fit my requirements
# 19:36 barnabywalters soon it will pull in @names for autocompletion from my CardDAV so I can administer them from any CardDAV client
# 19:36 barnabywalters my @name -> hcard function already does that, just not on the client side yet
# 19:44 aaronpk yep. apparently the old hard-refresh shortcut doesn't work anymore
# 19:52 aaronpk left and right arrows to navigate between notes and pages
# 19:53 barnabywalters I just implemented some accesskeys for the main nav. Might to something similar for prev/next
# 19:53 aaronpk right arrow follows the link with rel="next" and left arrow follows rel="prev"
# 21:07 barnabywalters Interesting passage from the twitter display <del>guidelines</del> requirements:
# 21:07 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.
# 21:08 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
# 21:09 barnabywalters aaronpk: any plans to extend your twitter reply rewriting to other services and verbs?
# 21:09 aaronpk haven't thought about it yet, but what were you thinking?
# 21:10 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
# 21:10 Loqi barnabywalters meant to say: I was thinking of adding reply links to any h-entry
# 21:13 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
# 21:15 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
# 21:15 aaronpk oh wait, that sounds like the indierank thing tantek was talking about
# 21:15 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.
# 21:16 tommorris but I had an idea: using the phone's address book for storing friend's URLs
# 21:16 tommorris so if I start typing "Barnab", it'd autocomplete and use the stored URL in the address book entry. ;-)
# 21:17 tommorris I saw the autocomplete demos. haven't seen the CardDAV implementation yet
# 21:17 barnabywalters I am doing pretty much what you're suggesting, just not in an android app (no idea how to do java)
# 21:17 barnabywalters tommorris: basically I have a cardDAV processing script, I just need to pull those results in to the autocomplete database
# 21:17 tommorris I've done Java for work, and this might be an opportunity to learn Android API.
# 21:19 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.
# 21:19 barnabywalters Then instead of an arbitrary mark, we'd have a test result of the features the tested domain supports
# 21:20 barnabywalters aaronpk: I had a feeling learning automated testing would change the way I thought about stuff :)
# 21:20 aaronpk that'd be really fun to see. it's like the microformats validators on steroids
# 21:21 aaronpk the google webmaster rich snippets testing tool is really useful, but only checks a couple things
# 21:21 barnabywalters I've only just started using them (like, yesterday) and don't know if it's possible
# 21:22 aaronpk speaking of salmons, did you ever write up your understanding of the protocol?
# 21:23 barnabywalters now my new site is live I should be able to get a test implementation working
