[superfeedr] "An #Indieweb catchup over food and drink" by Ben Werdmüller on 2013-10-22 https://werd.io/2013/an-indieweb-catchup-over-food-and-drink
[manton], [miklb] and [tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek]
Why is this only a problem with benwerd and superfeedr?
#
[tantek]
Or is it any Known and he happens to say "IndieWeb"?
#
[tantek]
I blame feed files :P
#
aaronpk
I'm clearly going to have to change how this works
#
[tantek]
Or we should track down what benwerd is doing that is triggering it
#
[tantek]
Not like any of those are on his home page so that's not it
#
[tantek]
I can only guess some random feed is causing it

@juliedillon
From Patreon: "We'd rather have our GMV be made up of fewer, but truly life-changed creators rather than a lot of creators making a few dollars." Well that tells me all I need to know about how much they actually care abt creators. https://brianbalfour.com/essays/patreon-onboarding-growth
(twitter.com/_/status/939210129261473792)
#
Zegnat
Feels like they are forgetting that almost nobody even makes minimal wage out of Patreon. So their biggest users are the smaller creators. https://theoutline.com/post/2571/no-one-makes-a-living-on-patreon
#
sknebel
and how many of the sucessful ones started small?
#
sknebel
Unless they really have massive issues with support costs, I don't get it
#
sknebel
(also, the sucessful ones generally are the ones that have likely the easiest time jumping somewhere else)
#

ok, I added "https://theoutline.com/post/2571/no-one-makes-a-living-on-patreon" to the "See Also" section of /Patreon

dgold
what alternative are you tending towards, jeremycherfas ?
#
jeremycherfas
I think Stripe. The site is WP, and there is what seems like a good plugin. Need to pay for pro, but will be worth it, I think. And hope.

#
GWG
aaronpk returns to the podium for a Building Blocks session
#
GWG
Session grid will be created
#
GWG
Topics to be discussed.
#
GWG
Remember, you do not need to know anything to lead a session
#
GWG
Barcamp style
#
GWG
Two or three sessions in parallel
#
GWG
Tomorrow...capture all of that energy and release it into our sites
#
GWG
Feel free to interrupt aaronpk anytime
#
GWG
The Basics
#
GWG
1. You need a website/domain name
#
GWG
Starting with a domain name is the key
#
GWG
Then you have a place to put stuff
#
GWG
If you llook at a cross section of people's website, they usually have the person's name, sometimes photo, often About/Bio, and then as we get into more social...a list of posts. It could be blog posts, or it could be things like microblog posts, photos, and other crazy stuff and experimental posts.
#
GWG
aaronpk posts everything
#
GWG
Bike rides, plane trips, exercise, food, drink...
#
tantek
(Your /homepage is a building block )
#
tantek
what is elsewhere
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "elsewhere" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "elsewhere is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
GWG
Another common element are links to where you can find him or anyone in other places
#
GWG
2. How can you do this yourself? The most important thing is to Just Do It. Make it useful to yourself, and then make it useful to interact with others
#
tantek
(odd we have a /elsewhere page but Loqi is not finding it)
#
tantek
(your /elsewhere links are a building block, useful for logging in to the wiki etc. with /IndieAuth )
#
GWG
3. The next step is you can use your website to log into things, like our community wiki. If you try, it will ask you for your domain name, and it will give you ways to authenticate through other services. It did this because on his page, there is a little markup(rel=me) that allows a website to interpret what other profiles/services can be used to sign you in.
#
GWG
That is just turning your website into a machine readable source for certain pieces of data
#
GWG
4. The next popular thing is microblog posts/notes. We are seeing this because Twitter introduced the idea of posting short things without a title.
#
GWG
Here are some examples... aaronparecki.com/notes
#
GWG
It has no title, a date, etc
#
GWG
The 'fun' part of this is that you can interact with them because of the way it is marked up
#
GWG
People have 'liked' and 'replied' to his posts using Indieweb standards
#
GWG
In this example, he wrote a reply on a micro.blog site, and aaronpk wanted to write back to him, so he used his website, but marked it up so that the other site knew that is was a reply and presented it as a comment
#
GWG
This uses two protocols, webmentions and microformats
friedcell joined the channel
#
chrisaldrich
What is webmention?
#
Loqi
Webmention is a web standard for mentions and conversations across the web, a powerful building block that is used for a growing federated network of comments, likes, reposts, and other rich interactions across the decentralized social web https://indieweb.org/Webmention
#
GWG
Webmentions allowed his site to notify the other site that there was a mention of it. Microformats allows the other site to interpret the comment.
#
chrisaldrich
What are microformats?
#
Loqi
microformats are extensions to HTML for marking up people, organizations, events, locations, blog posts, products, reviews, resumes, recipes etc https://indieweb.org/microformats
#
GWG
That's how we are able to make sites with totally different codebases work together
#
GWG
The way to turn it on.
#
GWG
On WordPress, there are plugins
#
GWG
If you are writing your own site, you can add a few things to your HTML. Webmentions are just simple POST Requests
#
GWG
adds webmention.io as a hosted webmention servicve
#
chrisaldrich
The /Known has them built into the core of the CMS.
#
GWG
Webmention.io is a service where you copy two lines into your site header that handles webmentions and has an API to pull them out.
#
GWG
Shows off the webmention.io dashboard
#
GWG
There is another one called webmention.herokuapp.com with the same idea
#
GWG
This one provides not only an API, but adds an HTML embed to render the comments
#
GWG
That is....
#
GWG
Shows martymcgui.re's Indieweb podcast as another example
#
GWG
And how all mentions are propogated
#
GWG
Offers an intro to Microformats next
#
GWG
H-Card is a microformat that describes a person, place, or business
#
GWG
notes the flashing blue indicating aaronpk is still at the point of last checkin
#
GWG
Shows source showing an h-card
#
GWG
His photo is marked up as u-photo to indicate it is a photo for consuming parsers
#
GWG
u-url for URLs
#
GWG
dt-bday for Birthdays
#
GWG
Shows off minimal hcard by adding h-card to a link.
#
GWG
Expands h-card to include photo
#
Zegnat
dt-bday <3
#
GWG
Next is h-entry, a post...
#
GWG
h-entry is the full post, but has minimal required properties...so inside the content is e-content for the text of the post. dt-published for the time of publish...
#
chrisaldrich
What is a parser?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "parser" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "parser is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
GWG
So, if you look at the parsed version of the page, he uses a location properties, published property, content, etc
#
GWG
You can see, with a couple of classes, you can add structure to the page
#
GWG
He also added markup for his comments
#
GWG
Demoing a minimal h-entry
#
GWG
Hello, World
#
GWG
You can start simple, and add complexity
#
GWG
Checkin property for checkins, photo property for photos, etc
#
GWG
You can start simple, and add complexity
#
GWG
Moves on to posting interfaces
#
GWG
aaronpk has no posting interface for his site.
#
GWG
His admin is small.
#
GWG
He uses Micropub based services instead
#
GWG
For example, Quill, a micropub client
#
tantek
(thought I saw a "reply" link on his post but that was on the micro.blog copy of the post)
#
GWG
Quill tries to know how to sign you in, how to get credentials, and where to send posts.
#
GWG
Shows the Quill note interface

Aaron Parecki talking about the building blocks of the IndieWeb — your own domain name, types of posts, Microformats, Webmention, and more — at IndieWebCamp. https://aaronparecki.com/
(twitter.com/_/status/939539244128841729)
#
GWG
A few people mentioned OwnYourGram/Swarm. They are also Micropub apps.
#
Loqi
[Aaron Parecki] Hello from IndieWebCamp Austin!
#
GWG
Instead of posting notes, they post checkins/photos posted to those services back to your site.
#
GWG
So, this is PESOS, Post Elsewhere, Syndicate Own Site
#
GWG
OwnYourGram has a page showing people using it
#
GWG
aaronpk demoes OYG to Micro.blog and Known.
#
GWG
notices the drumming of the heating system
#
GWG
aaronpk is demoing OYS now
#
GWG
wonders if chrisaldrich will ever switch to OYS
#
tantek
GWG let us know if you notice any patterns of prime numbers
#
tantek
GWG in the drumming
#
GWG
Shows preview in OwnYourSwarm
wolftune joined the channel
#
GWG
Another example is the micro.blog iOS app.
#
GWG
So, even though it was designed for micro.blog,, it uses Micropub, so aaronpk can use it
#
GWG
wonders when the Android app is coming
#
GWG
There is also a browser extension
#
GWG
There is a question of whether assets are local or remote
#
GWG
That is up to the server, not the client app
#
GWG
However, Micropub supports uploading a photo as part of the specification
#
tantek
aaronpk demonstrates reply to a tweet, but from his own website
#
tantek
to do that he posts a copy on Twitter
#
tantek
and links to it using a Twitter icon on the post itself
#
tantek
this is the /posts-elsewhere building block
#
GWG
One of the reasons that linking to Twitter is useful is that we want to show his reply on Twitter as a comment on our site.
#
chrisaldrich
What is cross-posting?
#
Loqi
Cross-posting is the social media practice of syndicating or placing the same content, possibly slightly modified, on numerous different websites https://indieweb.org/cross-posting
#
tantek
his posts have a series of small icons next to the datetime published that link to copies of his posts in other places
#
tantek
([chrisaldrich] this is more explicit /POSSE than general cross-posting)
#
GWG
His reply only exists on Twitter. aaronpk doesn't want to do the Twitter API
#
GWG
Someone has solved this
#
GWG
Bridgy, brid.gy
#
tantek
when people reply to aaronpk's post copies on Twitter, he wants those to show up on the original post on aaronpk's site
#
GWG
It takes Twitter/Facebook/etc responses and turns them into webmentions
#
GWG
So, aaronpk doesn't have to do anything
#
GWG
This is for replies, favorites, retweets
#
GWG
On WordPress, there are plugins for this
#
GWG
interrupts for WordPress clarity
#
GWG
pauses for applause
#
GWG
aaronpk moves into how to follow people, an underdeveloped part of the ecosystem
#
GWG
Covers PubSubHubBub aka WebSub
#
GWG
This is How to Make Feeds Real Time
#
GWG
When you post something, anyone who subscribes gets notified
#
GWG
What they do is outside of the spec
cdchapma1 joined the channel
#
GWG
We are trying to prove the concept of following people
#
GWG
There is a pretty good start to an Indieweb reader...brainstormed and prototyped this summer. Together.tpxl.io
#
GWG
(Of Course chrisaldrich is on there)
#
GWG
It's kind of neat to follow people from their own websites
#
GWG
There is no 3rd party service
#
chrisaldrich
Hello aaronpk!
#
GWG
There are lots of different views by type
#
GWG
Mostly Manton on Podcasts
#
GWG
It's a start
#
tantek
(This Together demo is blowing my mind)
#
tantek
(wait is this microsub?)
#
GWG
Moves to Monocle.... monocle.p3k.io, the new service that does the following of feeds. It doesn't do a user interface
#
schmarty
tantek: Together is talking to Monocle over microsub, yep.
#
GWG
But, because Monocle is a service, any app can work with it
#
chrisaldrich
I've been quietly following the /microsub updates for a while... EXCITING stuff right?!!!!
#
GWG
Since it is linked to his site, he can interact with posts by clicking 'like' buttons etc

Why Cell Phone Battery?
#
schmarty
aaronpk shows some of his extra features. his website always knows his location.
#
tantek
use-case for sharing phone battery level: if you send aaronpk a message and he doesn't respond, if you can see his battery level is 0 then that might be why
#

#
[stefp]
Hi
#
GWG
We will create pads for each
#
GWG
Hello, [stefp]
#
tantek
the way we do that is on a collaborative note-taking tool called Etherpad
#
tantek
we create one for each session in the schedule
#
tantek
and link to it from the schedule
#
GWG
etherpad.indieweb.org/something
#
tantek
e.g. etherpad.indieweb.org/austin
#
gRegorLove
If notes already exist in the etherpad for previous sessions, enter a few line breaks at the top and enter the newer notes at the top.
#
tantek
at least someone in each session should take notes in the etherpad for the session
#
tantek
great to have documentation for the sessions so we can learn and make progress as a community instead of just having the discussions be ephemeral
#
tantek
we will try to live stream at least this room
#
tantek
and maybe the second room too

post type session: I view them all as posts with links (thus a linkblog): reads are things I've actually spent the time to read, favorites (things that are personally important to me), likes, bookmarks (things that seem interesting and I want to either read it later or revisit it)
#
[chrisaldrich]
Likes I use to mean thanks or props to the original post or author.
#
[chrisaldrich]
Often on Twitter, I'll use the like to convey to the author of a back and forth conversation that I've "seen" their post.
#
[chrisaldrich]
and may not necessarily reply directly.
#
gRegorLove
like nothing / hate nothing sounds pretty zen. :)
#
chrisaldrich
GWG, the nice thing about Post Kinds is that one can change the physical definition of Like, favorite, etc. within the plugin. (One needs to manually modify the code at present...)
#
gRegorLove
what is a chicken?
#
Loqi
chicken is a type of post supported by idno https://indieweb.org/chicken
#
gRegorLove
Oh, checkin.
#
chrisaldrich
I suspect part of GWG's issue is that he's writing Post Kinds which "forces" definitions of post kinds for people.
#
gRegorLove
what is jam?
#
Loqi
jam is an active type of post used to share a song that you are recently enjoying https://indieweb.org/jam
#
gRegorLove
/jam is active, /listen is passive
#
[chrisaldrich]
To solve GWGs proximal issue, perhaps making the human readable part of his interface definable by the user would suffice. Then each person and site could define their own definitions.
#
gRegorLove
[chrisaldrich]++ agreed. Customized plaintext summaries sounds most flexible

I often break mine up into statues (things I'm doing) versus links (external sites of interest to me or my readers)

What is venue?
#
Loqi
A venue is a named location or address/geo that is typically used for checkins https://indieweb.org/venue
#
gRegorLove
It's been a good first day IWC Austin
#
chrisaldrich
Tantek: I think the tough part of person tags is they're typically an action taken on a piece of content (PESOS) rather than something that feels native doing on one's own site first (POSSE). They might feel more natural if they're done as PESOS with Micropub?
