@BarnabyWalters Built and released today: ~ THE TRUNCENATOR ~ https://t.co/3EAF0Tal #indieweb (http://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/356)
# 
barnabywalters one thing I’ve noticed in the recent outbreak of app•net mania is that netbot’s cross posting is really bad
# barnabywalters e.g. use of – before the URL (implies the URL represents the author)
# 
waterpigs.co.uk edited /syndication_formats (+198) "/* Formatting Content for Syndication */ added Tools section" (view diff)

# barnabywalters tommorris: wow, what sort of edits does the bot do?
# barnabywalters tommorris: sounds like a great idea! I'm recording the tweet (and FB) ids of my syndicated content but I haven’t been able to put them to good use properly
# barnabywalters tommorris: ah, fab
# barnabywalters tommorris: my dad is a full-on insect nerd. Not sure if he uses WP much in his studies though
# aaronpk barnabywalters: I record the tweet id/url, and use it to display a twitter "retweet" link on my notes http://aaronparecki.com/2012/277/note/4
# barnabywalters aaronpk: ah, that’s a great use. Tempted, but I’m against including that sort of action on the webpage
# barnabywalters too much of an assumption. But then again it may explain why few people ever retweet my content :)
# barnabywalters that’s interesting anayltics
# barnabywalters tommorris: see http://indiewebcamp.com/backfeed
# barnabywalters especially the section where I note that none of the APIs make it very easy >:|

# barnabywalters fb actually offers the best response-pulling-in facility, but it’s API is hideously slow
# barnabywalters one of the reasons I haven’t bothered setting up FB syndication on the latest iteration of my site

# barnabywalters aaronpk: thanks
# barnabywalters I haven’t quite figured out the best place in POSSE/syndication-models to link to it

# barnabywalters aaronpk: I recently imitated your in-reply-to box, also adding the tweet id (if it’s a tweet) to my twitter syndication :)
# barnabywalters I need to get your extension ported to safari next
# barnabywalters not much different to a chrome extension I believe
# aaronpk cool. feel free to fork this and add a "safari" folder! https://github.com/aaronpk/IndieWeb-Reply-Browser-Extension
# barnabywalters although Chrome, safari and FF all handle UI differently
# barnabywalters aaronpk: I think with existing projects people just fork them onto indieweb
# barnabywalters so my ideal for developing extensions would be to just have "a script" which is injected in different ways depending on the browser
# barnabywalters that would allow it to work on iOS too, through a bookmarklet
# barnabywalters safari extensions are code-signed, not sure how this affects distributing them as open source projects?
# barnabywalters as I’m forking anway, I’ll fork it to indiewebcamp
# @BarnabyWalters Looking into potential use of http://www.culater.net/software/SIMBL/SIMBL.php to add #indieweb reply to the mac twitter app (http://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/363)

# @BarnabyWalters @sandeepshetty do you use IRC? Lots of good #fsw discussion on #indiewebcamp channel and the IWC wiki (http://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/370)
# barnabywalters aaronpk: I noticed! Big improvement
# 
@IndieWebCampUK @emmajlsharp @barkleyjoseph loving that #deadrat :)
# barnabywalters during the short time I was running ThinkUp, the thing that struck me the most was just how many t.co links got broken fast
# barnabywalters oh sh*t, wrong twitter accnt used :O
# barnabywalters deleted
# barnabywalters if it wasn’t for these logs capturing it forever, it’d be a transient mistake ;)
# barnabywalters that is another advantage of replying through my site — no danger of accidentally using the wrong account
# barnabywalters signing off. goodnight
