# KartikPrabhu !tell snarfed: how can I access older responses? you know more than what is shown in "Recent Responses"?
# KartikPrabhu kylewm: Can I access the bridgy url for your Facebook repost of my article? I accidently erased all records of bridgy urls by replacing them with orginal ones

# KartikPrabhu snarfed: the instagramm tests give "AssertionError: [published] '2012-10-06T22:45:57' != '2012-10-07T00:45:57'"
# KartikPrabhu also re older responses: I'd like to keep a record of where the mentions came from but I accidently replaced the bridgy urls with u-urls from the mention. I just wanted to get the bridgy urls back
# KartikPrabhu oh huh! Alright I'll do that and send a PR for the twitter tzs
# KartikPrabhu re: older response for the http://kartikprabhu.com/article/indieweb-love-blog posts if possible
# KartikPrabhu aah yes I forgot I already pushed that
# KartikPrabhu eh! turn out I only have one commit locally :P
# KartikPrabhu lets see if I can do something on Github
# KartikPrabhu nope. I didn't have a local copy remember
# KartikPrabhu I only see 15 responses
# KartikPrabhu yeah google+ does have 100 but twitter only has 15
# KartikPrabhu no... that seems right... cool! That should go long way in tracking down the urls
# KartikPrabhu also seems I don't have any upstream set! Isn't this supposed to happen automatically on cloning?
# snarfed easy to add though: git remote add upstream https://github.com/snarfed/activitystreams-unofficial.git
# KartikPrabhu you mean git pull for the last one right?

# KartikPrabhu aah yes
# KartikPrabhu ok did that work!?
# KartikPrabhu yes :)

# KartikPrabhu it still says "invalid upstream upstream"!
gRegor` joined the channel
# KartikPrabhu yup it does...
# KevinMarks Well, more like a g+ profile
# KartikPrabhu I think all these guys Twitter/FB/G+ will merge into one big silo-blob
# KartikPrabhu everyone will look like everyone esle
# KartikPrabhu GWG: styling? as in display?

# KartikPrabhu GWG: "Shared" ?
pasevin joined the channel
# KartikPrabhu GWG: Yeah I'd do "Shared on" Twitter, FB etc...
# KartikPrabhu GWG: cool!
# KartikPrabhu GWG: hey! don't look at me! I'm neither a designer nor a programmer ;)
# KartikPrabhu I'm a physics grad student :D
# KartikPrabhu so basically nothing ;P
# KartikPrabhu GWG: the theme looks pretty neat!
# KartikPrabhu GWG: since you are using Genericons you might want to to try http://genericons.com/#share this one for syndication urls
# KartikPrabhu though I have no idea how standard it is.
# KevinMarks My father taught physics too
# KartikPrabhu man! so much physics :P
# snarfed KartikPrabhu, GWG: this is also pretty common. http://genericons.com/#external
# KartikPrabhu snarfed: I did look at that... but I associate with "open in new tab" or something
# KartikPrabhu choosing icons is pretty hard
# KevinMarks There's the android share icon: https://www.iconfinder.com/icons/198108/share_icon
pasevin joined the channel
# KartikPrabhu KevinMarks: that is definitely better. I use entypo on my site and it has one like that
# KevinMarks Yes, he taught at Polytechnic of North London and the Open University
# KartikPrabhu rascul: of course I mean icon-fonts and not images ;)
# KartikPrabhu GWG: yes always a good idea to stick to one icon font collection
# KevinMarks Or use an SVG file, it'd be small
# KevinMarks There's probably a case for using different icons on iOS, android and desktop
# rascul i think i like a card type thing http://crash.rascul.io/cards.html

# indie-visitor Hi, i have a question about web sign in via rel-me links. As it happens, in practice, through 3rd-party silos, it does not offer any privacy advantage over direct login using facebook accounts. The third party will anyway happily trace our surf habits,right?

# kbs but if subjective opinions aren't totally useless :) I personally find simpler sites easier to read [eg: http://alistapart.com/blog] so any feedback I have would tend towards removing chrome, etc

# KartikPrabhu http://practicaltypography.com/ is my go to for good typography
# barnabywalters !tell caseorganic hello!
# barnabywalters good evening GWG, #indiewebcamp
# KartikPrabhu evening!
# barnabywalters GWG: oh, er, good! which one?
# barnabywalters ah, the reply?
# barnabywalters so what interesting things have been happening here while I was gone
# barnabywalters I saw a mention in the logs about fragmentations…
# barnabywalters aaronpk: ha ha okay
# barnabywalters aaronpk: I skimmed the logs while half-asleep ;)
# barnabywalters if they are fragmentions then why does indiewebcamp.com/fragmentions not exist
# barnabywalters ah you beat me to it
# barnabywalters interesting
# barnabywalters GWG: sure!
# GWG barnabywalters: http://tiny.n9n.us How's my markup this time?
# barnabywalters GWG: looking good! a few microformats markup suggestions:
# barnabywalters add an explicit p-name property for the h-feed — at the moment the “name” is just the text content of that element
# barnabywalters the published datetimes should be ISO8601 datetimes (e.g. 2014-04-12T12:00:00+0000), at the moment they are human-readable dates
# barnabywalters you’re already using the <time datetime=“”> attribute, so you just need to make the value of that attribute a valid ISO8601 datetime
# barnabywalters so, there are two ways to publish a feed with microformats2, as detailed on http://indiewebcamp.com/feed
# barnabywalters either just have a bunch of h-entries, or have an h-feed with h-entries in
# barnabywalters one of the advantages of using h-feed is that you can name the feed
# barnabywalters (typically the same as the <title> element)
# barnabywalters but if you don’t name it, the name will just be the text content of the element
# barnabywalters GWG: in most cases there’s not even any reason to use h-feed
# barnabywalters it’s mainly personal preference
# barnabywalters only other thing I would recommend would be to make the author properties of the entries nested h-cards rather than just plaintext properties
# barnabywalters GWG: there’s a bunch of help here: http://indiewebify.me/validate-h-entry/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftiny.n9n.us%2F2012%2F01%2F07%2Ftemplate-sticky%2F
# barnabywalters actually I need to add checking for ISO8601 datetimes to indiewebify.me
# barnabywalters that’ll be tomorrow’s project
# barnabywalters it’s also a a good idea to use e-content instead of p-content — that way parsers can either get the plaintext value or the HTML value
# barnabywalters GWG: this is really valuable feedback for indiewebify.me and microformats educational materials, thanks!

# barnabywalters GWG: ha ha ha, “barnabywalters-certified” markup
# barnabywalters I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or not ;)
# barnabywalters I’d rather you added a link to an indiewebify.me test page
# barnabywalters that way people can verify themselves that the markup is good
# barnabywalters GWG: looking good!
# barnabywalters complete with timezone
