barnabywalters I finally got my sketches and notes and thoughts together on web actions/intents/activities
# barnabywalters here's the braindump: http://waterpigs.co.uk/articles/web-actions
# barnabywalters warning: contains stick men and detailed examples
# barnabywalters feedback greatly appreciated. The goal of this article is to outline how *I* see web actions working, and see if that syncs up with how others see them

brennannovak barnabywalters: bonjour matey!
# barnabywalters hey brennannovak!
# brennannovak how goes it?
# barnabywalters good, you?
# brennannovak pretty nifty. been super busy with conferences, working at startup, etc...
# barnabywalters great — which startup is that? the emotion mapping one?
# brennannovak Tantek gave glowing reviews of IndiewWebCampUK and such
# barnabywalters brennannovak: I certainly enjoyed it! It was a rare chance to meet and work with other webby people IRL
# brennannovak nah, emoome is my personal project- not quite a startup yet. Startup is @tylergillies twitter intelligence engine thing
# barnabywalters ah, yep, he mentioned that
# brennannovak I love your little search box that pulls up @name and #hashtopics
# brennannovak thanks Loqi
# barnabywalters we love you too, Loqi!
# barnabywalters brennannovak: thanks. It was my warm-up for getting into front end dev a bit more
# brennannovak well done sir
# barnabywalters can socialigniter expose a list of names and used tags? it would probably be easy to retro-fit
# brennannovak I'm a bit bummed i've been so quiet on my IndieWeb / SI efforts
# brennannovak it wouldn't be too hard to pull down a list of users from the API, currently do not have any storing of #hashtags but could easily implement via the Tags app
# barnabywalters assuming there's a JSON API endpoint for it, we can just pull it in via ajax, right?
# brennannovak yah
# barnabywalters I'll add a feature request issue for it. Not high priority, but fun :)
# brennannovak yah, please do that :)
# barnabywalters brennannovak: extracting the feed reader from SI would be *fab*. did you read the web actions article I posted earlier?
# brennannovak no, link pls :)
# barnabywalters it's a bit heavy, but has cartoons in :)
# brennannovak heh
# barnabywalters but a big part of it is allowing feed readers and publishing clients to be separate
# brennannovak cartoons make EVERYTHING all the more palatable
# barnabywalters brennannovak++
# brennannovak my fav #
# brennannovak k, lemme read it
# brennannovak after I hit the lieu

# brennannovak barnabywalters: LOVE "i.e. the web — suck on that, facebook"
# barnabywalters brennannovak: :)
# brennannovak barnabywalters: very well done man! Once again, how old are you?
# barnabywalters 17
# barnabywalters I try not to… *use* my age too much. It can be tempting to hide behind it sometimes
# 
@socialigniter Really great article by @BarnabyWalters about Web Actions http://waterpigs.co.uk/articles/web-actions #indieweb
# brennannovak well, that's quite admirable! Needless to say, I believe you have a very bright & successful future ahead of you ;)
# barnabywalters thanks :)
# barnabywalters so that's my big vision for loosely coupled feed readers/publishing clients/others
# barnabywalters it's very much the opposite of tent.io's OAUTH ALL THE THINGS attitude — something I want to avoid
# 
@BarnabyWalters #indieweb people: Let’s avoid this attitude to web app interoperability: OAUTH ALL THE THINGS
# brennannovak barnabywalters: that's a great idea, your solution seems very intuitive and much easier to implement than Tent.io thing
# barnabywalters aaronpk: hello! Your twitter rewriting gets a mention. not sure I’ve actually linked to it yet
# brennannovak interesting, so you think feed readers should be totally decoupled from the publishing aspect (code wise)? Or is that something left up to App builder to archtect?
# barnabywalters brennannovak: up to the app builder
# barnabywalters most of what I’m thinking about happens in the browser
# barnabywalters so, for example, if there was a great feed reader which was also a content publisher, the browser extensions would allow me to use the feed reading with the publisher of my choice
# barnabywalters it's all about user control and choice
# barnabywalters aaronpk: such as yours!
# brennannovak YES, YES! This sounds excellent!
# barnabywalters technologically, all that has to be done is enhancing aaronpk's extension to cover more than twitter, and making sure all out publishing interfaces support filling of the UI via the query string
# barnabywalters we can worry about discovery et al later on.
# barnabywalters I want to hear what tantek thinks before I do any major implementation, given that he came up with the web actions proposal I’m modelling this on
# barnabywalters aaronpk: just a video, I think
# barnabywalters is signing off. goodnight everyone!
