I should fix that, but it is a common problem. I think I put a rel-canonical in, but if I didn't I should.

evening! did any of you watch the sessions from the recent IWC Düsseldorf or Nürnberg?
#
eli_oat
I was just about to watch some of them
#
[miklb]
did not

compare https://indieweb.org/2017/D%C3%BCsseldorf/Schedule video links and https://indieweb.org/2017/Nuremberg/Schedule and if one or the other looks better to you, say so! (experimenting a bit with making them more accessible / obvious / convenient)
#
tantek
input very much encouraged
#
tantek
or additional ideas
#
eli_oat
I think you made the right call including timestamps next to ▶️
#
eli_oat
for some reason I get that the camera is a video, but ▶️ is weirdly ambiguous
#
eli_oat
also, has any one checked that these emoji actually translate across platforms — I know there are a few that don't necessarily match one-to-one on some platforms, like samsung
#

[eli] This article gives a solid overview of the indieweb ecosystem as I understand it. I like the idea of feed readers being the gravitational center to everyones social network. I've been using tt-rss and my newly indiewebified website for just that. Exc...
#
eli_oat
oops, wrong URL, sorry
#
eli_oat
that one

#
tantek
eli_oat: interesting. the "timestamps" next to the play icon are actually *duration* of the videos
#
tantek
or was that what you mean? ok if it seemed unclear, I'd rather know that!
#
eli_oat
yeah, sorry, sloppy word choice on my part
#
eli_oat
I got that they were the duration of the video
#
tantek
ok cool, just making sure :)
#
eli_oat
good catch ??
#
tantek
what no emoji karma Loqi?
#
eli_oat

#
Loqi
awesome
#
eli_oat
are folks able to participate in indiewebcamp from afar?
#
eli_oat
even just as lurkers?
#
tantek
typically yes! via IRC, etherpad, and livestreams.
#
eli_oat
most of these videos are form a live stream?
#
tantek
sometimes via two-way
#
eli_oat
oh, nice nice
#
tantek
some have "Remote Participation" sections to add yourself if you like
#
tantek
eli_oat: like for the upcoming IndieWeb Summit: https://indieweb.org/2017#Remote_Participation
#
eli_oat
brilliant! Thanks — I've added this to my calendar. gonna try my darnedest to at least keep an eye ball on IRC while things go down.
#
eli_oat
to your original question about which looks better, I think I dig the one with cameras more than the one with play icons because the UI is a bit less cluttered, there isn't as much going one, but that might also be the nature of the two different events
#
tantek
eli_oat: and if you have a moment, add yourself to https://indieweb.org/2017/Guest_List#Remote_Participants so we (at the summit in person) know to check / look for you!
#
tantek
(I just added a link / call to action to that from the previous Remote Participation link so it's more discoverable)

what is Tung?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Tung" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
[miklb]
Tung is Tung.fm for iOS - a social podcast player that is now open source

Loqi
[inorganik] Tung-iOS: Tung.fm for iOS - a social podcast player

ok, I added "https://github.com/inorganik/Tung-iOS" to the "See Also" section of /Tung

Hi, is there some comprehensive page which tracks what FB API allows? I'm interested in reading FB events a FB user is invited to? does silo.pub or something like that allow it? Does even the API allow it?

What is granary?
#
Loqi
granary is a library and REST API that frees you from social network snowflake API and exposes the sweet social data foodstuff inside as HTML and JSON with microformats2, ActivityStreams, Atom, XML, and more https://indieweb.org/granary

@anchakor have a look at granary
#
[kevinmarks]
The easiest way to get fb events is the ics url
Pierre-O joined the channel
#
Anchakor
thanks [kevinmarks]
#
Anchakor
does silo.pub use granary? solely?
#
[kevinmarks]
No, silo.pub is more for posting, bridgy and granary are for reading back
#
Anchakor
hmm best would be to have a two-way bridge
#
Anchakor
btw it's not clear, but does Granary require to be run on Google App Engine?
#
Zegnat
Anchakor, no, you could use it as a library dependancy in any Python project: https://github.com/snarfed/granary#using-the-library
#
Loqi
[snarfed] granary: Fetches and converts data between Facebook, Google+, Instagram, and Twitter native APIs, ActivityStreams, microformats2 HTML and JSON, Atom, and more.
#
Anchakor
cool, wasn't too clear from the docs. might be giving a bit of bad press as anything google is not in favor for decetralization :)

Not even willing to get their own domain name? I wouldn't put too much stock in it. Also [kevinmarks] is there any indication that the creators of it are using it as their own online identity?

hi all. any group think on the best way to present a “liked” tweet on yr blog? Bookmark with embed maybe?

I have a Google Sheet with all my Twitter likes that I’m going to try and import into WP. Wanted to find a structure to mark up the content. Sebsel’s could work nicely for that :-)

GWG where it isn’t a photo, or where it wouldn’t use u-photo?
#
[miklb]
GWG u-featured
#
davidmead
img can be a screenshot, illustration, graph
#
davidmead
but they can all be a “photo” as in .jpeg or .png ;-)
#
[miklb]
GWG tantek explained to me that u-photo is when the image is the primary content. u-featured would be a complimentary image that you want associated with the image

GWG: I wouldn't use u-photo on photos that appear in a blog post, because they're not the primary purpose of the post... /article vs /photo
#
gRegorLove
Also, there's not any consumers of u-photo in that context that I'm aware of.

Iconography aren’t u-photo either. Like sebsel’s heart images on likes.

#
[miklb]
gregorlove bridgy will accept a u-photo but now supports u-featured as well
#
gRegorLove
Yeah, but that's for /photo posts
#
[miklb]
I didn't think it differentiated.
#
gRegorLove
It doesn't. I guess what I mean is it comes down to author's intent. If you have an article that includes a few photos (not a featured image) and you POSSE it, you probably don't intend for those photos to appear as a gallery on the post... as an /article it's primarily text content you want people to read.
#
gRegorLove
So adding u-photo doesn't make much sense for /articles. Maybe there's edge cases.
#
gRegorLove
Related: https://indieweb.org/post-type-discovery#Algorithm #6 consumers following that algorithm would treat such an /article as a /photo

I might use u-photo on images I put in a travel article. The photos are just as much part of the article as the text, imho
