Loqi skinny: tantek left you a message 2 days, 11 hours ago: see and read http://piedtype.com/2013/05/21/spammers-use-trackbacks-pingbacks-and-reblogs/ all the way through - including the blockquotes. This is why WordPress adoption is not the end-all be-all. Nor mass "adoption" in general. It's a misplaced desire.
#
Loqi skinny: tantek left you a message 2 days, 5 hours ago: thanks for the design/style feedback and suggestions. I've made most of the changes you suggested. Kept type slightly larger in a couple of cases, the better for mobile (without needing media queries). reload tantek.com
#
Loqi skinny: tantek left you a message 1 day, 9 hours ago: Looks like you haven't signed into IndieWebCamp.com since we switched over to IndieAuth - could you sign-in and create your user page (even with just your name and link to your site) so we can link you up on other pages?

neuro` Hello

#
neuro` tantek: have you seen how Disqus seems to use spammy tricks to hide advertisement from the site admin and display them to regular users? https://twitter.com/zedshaw almost all the 1st page.
#
neuro` One more reason to host your comments.

#
franfran hello all, I'd like to set something up on my website to participate in indieweb, I would also like to contribute to some open source software
#
JonathanNeal aaronpk: that's a pretty web savvy coffee house.
#
JonathanNeal And it's a Sunday.
#
franfran I'd like to 1)have a blog 2) syndicate to twitter (although the other way around, would be fine by me too) I wouldn't mind being able to privately share some web stuff too
#
franfran is ozten's innercircle a good choice?
#

snarfed and bnvk joined the channel
#
snarfed franfran: are you more interested in writing code, or having something stable and easy to use?
#
snarfed if the latter, try wordpress with the SemPress theme and pfefferle's webmention plugin
#
snarfed you can syndicate to twitter with JetPack Publicize
#
snarfed if you're more interested in writing code, take a look at the projects on http://indiewebcamp.com/ and jump into any of them!

#
aaronpk really want to publish my travel plans for the next couple months. I'm thinking about making an "event" for each leg
#
aaronpk some of them I would want to make private posts, you'd only be able to see them if you're logged in

#
barnabywalters aaronpk: sounds good
#
barnabywalters adactio was talking about implementing this on thesession.org
#
aaronpk then I can make an .ical export from my data the same way I run my HTML through a microformats parser to have a .json extension
#
aaronpk then I could add it to google calendar!
#
barnabywalters paving the cowpath he noticed of people using the forum to say “I’m going to X on Y, what sessions/music stuff is around?”
#
barnabywalters ooh that would be cool
#
aaronpk I think I have some time today to hack on this. might go back to sisters coffee. (ping: bret)
#
aaronpk is a flight an "event"?
#
barnabywalters I’ve seen a bunch of people use the aeroplane unicode character between airport IDs to notate flights
#
barnabywalters I think shaners does it sometimes?
#
aaronpk oh yeah i've done that
#
ozten franfram: innercircle doesn't syndicate to twitter
#
ozten the main idea, is something more like a letter
#
ozten you address a post to individuals
#
ozten kind of a blog, kind of a shared personal space
#
ozten but it supports webmentions
#
ozten and needs a lot of work :) if you build on top of it, it would be fun to jam
#
ozten notices franfran isn't in the channel
#
barnabywalters ozten: webmentions for private content? how are you doing that?
#
barnabywalters btw you can leave a !tell for them, e.g. !tell franfran blah blah blah
#
ozten barnabywalters: I didn't know able tell, thanks! Is that IRC in general, or a bot that supports it?
#
barnabywalters that’s Loqi being helpful
#
ozten !tell: franfram: innercircle doesn't syndicate to twitte, the main idea, is something more like a letter. kind of a blog, kind of a shared personal space but it supports webmentions. Needs a lot of work if you build on top of it, it would be fun to jam
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
ozten barnabywalters: I think I've made the webmention posts public
bnvk joined the channel
#
ozten you're right that the part where you check back would fail to see the content
#
barnabywalters aaronpk came up with a spec for doing authenticated webmentions
#
ozten interesting
#
barnabywalters using indieauth: http://indiewebcamp.com/indieweb-messaging
#
ozten thanks
#
aaronpk ozten: would love some more people to test that with!
#
aaronpk hm what happens if I create an event for a flight, and then change my travel itinerary?
#
aaronpk guess we'll find out, since that's about to happen
#
aaronpk also daylight savings time ends next sunday! prepare to have havoc wrought upon all your code that attempts to handle timezones properly :)
#
barnabywalters aaronpk: my strategy of completely ignoring it has been working so far ;)
#
aaronpk lol
#
barnabywalters goodnight all
#
Loqi ciao

bnvk joined the channel
#
aaronpk why does it always take so much time to research how to publish new stuff
josephboyle, lukebrooker, ozten and andreypopp joined the channel
#
aaronpk man i've gone down a rabbit hole
#
aaronpk now researching boarding pass redesigns http://passfail.squarespace.com/ and https://medium.com/design-ux/c72084d7793e to figure out how to display my flights
#
bret aaronpk: would love to come but I'm in test grading purgatory right now :(
#
aaronpk sadface
#
bret :(
#
aaronpk it's ok. i'm getting frustrated by any lack of guidance on how to publish my flight plans
#
bret what do you mean? UI examples?
#
aaronpk yeah
#
bret hrmmm
#
aaronpk so far i've got this: http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3708/10524488633_0a637d0b3e_o.png
#
aaronpk I think I should quit and call it good
#
aaronpk what more do you need?
#
bret not sure
bnvk joined the channel
#
bret a map and pins with hoverover info to display the data?
#
aaronpk oh god maps
#
bret maybe directional arrows
#
aaronpk wasn't even thinking that
#
aaronpk yeah that would be sweet
#
bret you could put a flying loqi to approximate where you are on the map during the actual flight
#
Loqi grins profusely
#
aaronpk lol!
#
aaronpk ok one thing at a time... I can't even figure out how best to put the damn dates on ther

#
aaronpk oh god. I need to add support for different timezones for the start and end date to the date formatter https://github.com/indieweb/date-formatter-php
#
aaronpk well at least that's easier than UI work :)
