Happy Wednesday off-HWC day folks!
#
tantek
and with that in mind, who's coming to next week's HWC meetup(s)?
#
andicascadesf
Unfortunately, it’s the same evening at UXNight, which is scheduled based on speaker and venue availability.
#
andicascadesf
:/ wahhhh!

has anyone looked at this Amber project? http://amberlink.org/
#
andicascadesf
same goes for Dec. 3rd.
#
npdoty
add a plugin to your own site so that it automatically archives all the pages that you link to
#
npdoty
... and then when those inevitably disappear, you can provide a cache link to your users with your cached copy of the pages

Hey guys, gotta go, but thanks for the insight on the blog challenge. Tantek, would be a great new years resolution. 30 days of blogging to start off 2015.
#
tantek
I think I stopped doing new years resolutions and instead started doing new years actions.

#
KartikPrabhu
re: new years resolutions, isn't there already a 2015 indieweb challenge? replace completely your use of Twitter by IWC 2015?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: that's why I started /ownyourdata#IndieWeb_Examples
#
tantek
oh wait you said *completely*
#
tantek
now *that* is a challenge
#
tantek
I think I can do *completely* for *publishing*
#
tantek
but I don't think I'll have a reader built by then that I can replace
#
ben_thatmust
i could do that, i barely use twitter as it is
lukebrooker joined the channel
#
ben_thatmust
definitely need more readers though
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah for me the obstacles are reader, posting interface and following lists
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: I've been thinking of that larger challenge though of *completely* replace Twitter - what would it take?
#
tantek
which is why I documented this: http://indiewebcamp.com/Twitter#Features
#
tantek
I have implemented a good chunk of that on my own site
#
tantek
but it's a good checklist to go through
#
KartikPrabhu
iirc you threw down the challenge when you made that list

Re: blogging for 30 days challenge, National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo) has been going on each November for years. There is one each month, actually, but November is the main one.
#
KartikPrabhu
is this like NaNoWriMo or something
#
gRegor`
They have suggested prompts, but they're optional of course.
#
tantek
what is NaNoWriMo?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "NaNoWriMo" yet. Would you like to create it? http://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/index.php?action=edit&title=NaNoWriMo

#
gRegor`
yeah yeah :)
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: the replce Twitter challenge should be official, so that people can take it up. Even if most people get half way that'll be huge
#
KartikPrabhu
maybe that can be IndieMark 7 or something
#
gRegor`
I've participated in NaBloPoMo a couple times, once successfully.
#
kylewm
is in for IwcBlogPoMo
#
gRegor`
It's quite large; good way to 'meet' new bloggers by browsing around. Honestly I think it was easier to network before Blogher took it over
#
gRegor`
goes to create wiki pages
#
kylewm
I haevn't been able to figure out a way to do the server sent events stuff without getting into green threads :(
#
KartikPrabhu
kylewm: this is for live updating comments?
#
KartikPrabhu
i.e. web socket stuff?
#
gRegor`
green threads?
#
kylewm
unfortunately this was discussed in #indiechat
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah what is this ^
#
Loqi
This. (AKA THIS. or This: or THIS:) is type of quotation post similar in meaning to a combined like & repost where the text "This." is stated on a line by itself after the quotation, or the text "This:" is stated before a quotation or URL to express a strong affirmation or agreement with the referenced quotation or article http://indiewebcamp.com/this
#
KartikPrabhu
bleh! Loqi
#
Loqi
yeah!
#
kylewm
aaronpk was talking about server-sent threads as an alternative to websockets
#
kylewm
bah server-sent events* not threads
#
KartikPrabhu
hmm. Is there an advantage over Web Sockets? Why are there 2 specs doing the same thing? Are both w3c/whatwg specs?
#
kylewm
Python has libraries for managing lots of concurrent lightweight threads, e.g. gevent, but I haven't wanted to get into them
#
KartikPrabhu
also interestign things like this should be moved from #indiechat to #indiewebcamp so we have logs
#
kylewm
that's what I meant by green thread. I'm not sure if that's 100% techincally accurate

KartikPrabhu: AFAICT, websockets are bi-directional and over a separate channel. server-sent events are over HTTP and only server to client

#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: the challenge is to map the Twitter features list into IndieMark features and levels
#
tantek
what are green threads?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "green threads" yet. Would you like to create it? http://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/index.php?action=edit&title=green+threads
#
tantek
I really need to implement "email" posts on my own site so I can POSSE them to W3C mailing lists just to make a point. Especially social web wg.
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: what is the flavour of the general discussion in social web wg?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: in IRC, good. on the wiki, ok, some noise. on the mailing list? a big mess.
#
KartikPrabhu
are they or are they not convinced about indieweb approach?
#
tantek
there is no "they" - there's a lot of individuals
#
tantek
most of whom make proposals without actually using their own sites to do so
#
tantek
so I ignore the mailing list unless someone points to it in IRC
#
tantek
see irc://irc.w3.org/social
#
KartikPrabhu
this seems to be common in w3c wg as far as my impression
#
tantek
w3c was born in the age of email lists - 1990s
#
tantek
and kind of got stuck there
#
KartikPrabhu
"we'll wait for the final protocol before making things" etc...
#
gRegor`
^ Props to Eden for maintaining her permalinks, blog posts from 2006 still working
#
tantek
nice logs here though thanks to Loqi and aaronpk: http://socialwg.indiewebcamp.com/irc/social/today#bottom
#
Loqi
you're welcome
#
gRegor`
Even after a domain name change, apparently
#
KartikPrabhu
i should figure out a way to do permanent redirects in my old Blogger posts
#
Loqi
definitely
#
tantek
I was waiting for that ^^^
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: re: http://indiewebcamp.com/Twitter#Features btw - it would be great to see someone define that list for *2006* era Twitter
#
KartikPrabhu
before my time :P
#
tantek
even just replacing what Twitter *launched with* would be a huge accomplishment
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: btw that being said about w3c and social wg - I was asked to participate and co-chair because indieweb opinions ARE valued there
#
KartikPrabhu
in fact I first had a consistent internet connection in 2005! :P
#
tantek
so in that regard, I'd encourage you to lurk in the IRC channel as well irc://irc.w3.org:6665/social
#
tantek
lurk and speak up
#
tantek
so when people ask what people are doing
#
tantek
what people are publishing etc.
#
tantek
you can feel free to say so
#
tantek
there's also been a bunch of related discussion with marginalia and fragmentions too
#
KartikPrabhu
wil consider
#
tantek
it's pretty quiet
#
tantek
check the logs for example
#
gRegor`
is done
#
tantek
and Loqi?
#
gRegor`
shh
#
tantek
gives Loqi an opportunity.
#
Loqi
cuts the opportunity.
#
gRegor`
wut. that's a new one to me.
#
gRegor`
KartikPrabhu: Does Blogger allow javascript? Bit messy, but you could do window.location=URL
#
KartikPrabhu
gRegor`: maybe. have forgotten all of Blogger's quirks

seems fitting in the spirit of tilde club etc.
#

what is tilde club?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "tilde club" yet. Would you like to create it? http://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/index.php?action=edit&title=tilde+club
#
KartikPrabhu
gRegor`: that is for redirecting within Blogger. or else you have to some JS trickery
#
gRegor`
yeah, I was realizing that. follow-up post indicates you can do it via js http://blogtimenow.com/blogging/automatically-redirect-blogger-blog-another-blog-website/
#
tantek
I wonder if people learning '@' as a username prefix made '~' more usable
#
kylewm
given the overloaded meaning of @ in email addresses, it's kind of remarkable that they did (mostly) learn it

@kevinmarks we should work on the webmention docs around fragments generally, otherwise it's likely to confuse some clients.

#
@kartik_prabhu
@tilgovi bridgy? Maybe you mean webmention…? Bridgy is for getting backfeed of replies from silos, or for POSSEing to them.

#
GWG
thedod: Will look forward to seeing you there
#
petermolnar
GWG I know, I just did not really start to think about a solution yet
#
thedod
there were talks about a "dry run". Is that still on?
#
GWG
thedod: We did it.
#
thedod
ah :)
#
GWG
petermolnar: The functions are there. You would just have to create a custom query for all pingbacks, check for the presence or absence of the metadata that is added by the plugin, and then process.
#
thedod
Got time to talk a bit about webmention for my case? (as Mum says: why do you always have to be a special case?)
#
GWG
thedod: This is the first online event. The entire event is also a dry run for future increased online participation
#
GWG
thedod: I'm not an expert, but what's on your mind?
#
thedod
Sending webmentions I guess I can handle. The problem is my weird permalinks
#
GWG
Why is that a problem?
#
thedod
what it does is redirect to an anchor on a page (they're all on the same page. it's a tiddlywiki)
#
GWG
Not sure, not familiar with tiddlywiki
#
GWG
It might be a setting
#
thedod
I can add stuff there giving a url where you can send webmentions (I'll write the app if needed)
tantek joined the channel
#
thedod
and let's suppose you'll guess that you click on more, permalink, and copy the url. question it:
#
thedod
where will I show your comment?
#
thedod
the thing comes from a static cloud storage. I'd need to add some js that reads the comments and displays them
#
GWG
Traditionally at the bottom?
#
GWG
thedod: Lots of people here have done webmentions on static sites
#
GWG
They probably have some thoughts. Try bear, I think he did that, for one
#
thedod
there's not exactly a "bottom" here, unless you mean at the bottom of each visible tiddler

thus a suggestion to consider renaming to WordPress Outreach Club. It's also fitting with the already existing Homebrew Website Club. I like the informality of "club". It's approachable.

tantek: So, how do I, if I'm not prepared to take over the hosting, integrate it?
#
tantek
start with: put it on your list of itches to scratch to start with, at whatever priority level it is vs. existing itches - then you can later look at taking an approach like BuddyPress or Diaspora, which involve self-hosted solutions for small groups of people
friedcell joined the channel
#
tantek
any time you feel like "I should do that… " just collect into into your itches list on your user: page
#
tantek
that will make it (more) obvious to you how many things you have you want to work on, and hopefully help make it clear the tradeoffs of working on one vs another

seems to be a terrible confusion about webmention, backfeed and POSSE all in one
#
kylewm
too nuanced for 140-chars
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah I'll write a longer note later unless someone else wants to
#

kylewm: No kidding. And I was doing all that in mysql
#
thedod
the authorize links look cool (once I deploy where I have a domain name)

kylewm
KartikPrabhu: I think he is talking about threaded comments
#
KartikPrabhu
thedod: btw the "telling off" you got on your post seems pretty on point
#
KartikPrabhu
kylewm: yeah, he is. And it is a problem only if people have comment forms that can reply to webementioned replies
#
KartikPrabhu
in any case that is not a problem for bridgy to deal with
#
thedod
KartikPrabhu, that got me reading "getting start" and eventually to messing about with redwind
#
KartikPrabhu
good good
#
thedod
Originally, I got here "by mistake". someone said in a comment "you should talk to indiewebcamp people about this", so I came in a mindset of "it probably fits here"
#
KartikPrabhu
also "people with sites that you can log in to" is also not accurate :P
#
thedod
as thegrugq says: when you have a hammer, everything looks like a finger
#
KartikPrabhu
fwiw: I could use Indieauth as a openid delegate and log in to your site ;)
#
thedod
So I think I'll do both things without mixing them. Open a /indies on my set (with some microformats on / pointing there)
#
@tilgovi
@kartik_prabhu I'm saying for sites that support on-site replies and webmentions can we mix the two and bypass bridgy-style pull. #indieweb
(twitter.com/_/status/533017979575746561)
#
thedod
would it work? can indieauth "play openid server?"
#
thedod
this could be cool
friedcell joined the channel
#
bret
thedod: yeah, when myopenid closed down, the existing indieauth service was made to act as an openID deligate
#
thedod
so if I'm dubiousdod.org, what's my openid there?
#
thedod
wants to try
#
bret
so dubiousdod.org is your personal domain you want to log into services that support openID?
#
bret
step 1) Get vanilla indieauth working
#
thedod
even *specifically* :)
#
thedod
it works. I got a user page at iwc and everything
#
bret
step 2) add the necessary openID delegate headers to your personal website.

the question is does anyone care to do it given some backend

What if whenever you edited something, the page is parsed and wemmentions are sent

probably would be fairly noisy

webmentions sent to all links? why?

also I'm glad mediawiki doesn't use the StudlyCaps style

getting web mentions from the wiki might be kind of cool form a citation standpoint, but I would want it displayed in a non-noisy way. like maybe a sparkline showing number of cites
#
bret
rather than an OL of mostly out of context urls
#
kylewm
bret: how many thousands of wiki citations are you expecting to get :P
#
bret
if a page generates interest over other pages, it might be interesting to display that visually somehow

might as in, I would be interested in playing around with that

yeah thats pretty good. doesn't hover over the highlighted text (like the tail of the highlight). and the bubble comes up consistently in the horizontal axis

tantek
perhaps I should better emphasize
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: yes. But think the using your own code dogfooding also counts for something, maybe intermediate between full selfdogfooding and making code that you don't use yourself at all
#
tantek
it does not
#
tantek
dogfooding is merely using your own code *somewhere*
#
tantek
dogfooding on its own has that meaning
#
KartikPrabhu
aah ok cool
#
tantek
that's the point. that's why we emphasize *self*dogfooding beyond just dogfooding
#
tantek
working on /selfdogfood now to try to clarify this
#
kylewm
I think it's confusing because *self* doesn't mean "on your personal website"
#
tantek
kylewm: it does in a matter of philosophy. the notion of self. identity.
#
KartikPrabhu
kylewm: in the indieweb context I suppose it does
#
kylewm
dogfooding already connotates self
#
kylewm
or rather, it connotates one "self" (the self who built the lightsaber and is using the lightsaber)
#
kylewm
so it's confusing to add another "self" that means something slightly different
#
KartikPrabhu
oh boy a StarTrek reference :P
