Was wondering the other day how popular the Indieweb is in Asia. Are there any public http://indieweb.org site statistics?

We think people have made an effort to translate stuff. Didn’t we also think there may have been a meetup somewhere? Korea? But that branch has never seemed to have joined our usual discussion channels so we are unsure :(

There’s a very small number of results from looking up in IRC-people and IndieWeb Webring for Asia

asia (in this context I know about Japan and China) has a _very_ different evolution of online presence, and thus personal websites are extremely rare
#
petermolnar
I'd love to see more, but in China, you need multiple licenses to make a website, whereas Japan went heavily feature phone mobile ~15 years ago
#
petermolnar
the group made the translation were Koreans and I have no knowledge of Korean internet
#
Zegnat
Are bboards still super big in Japan/Korea? They always pop up in the comics I read from that side of the world

I take Rose's point (former teacher here too).

We could do a book sprint a weekend
#
[tonz]
That's how the opendatahandbook.org came into being. 5 ppl taking a weekend to write the first draft and then a wider network of ppl adding to it

We spent a weekend in Berlin doing that. It was fun and productive
#
[jgmac1106]
i am down for a book hack
#
[Rose]
It might be a fun "not quite IndieWebCamp" like event
#
[jgmac1106]

Posted this in the wrong channel I think: I am wondering if there will be an IWC somewhere in the US August 17th-18th?

#
[eddie]
Taking a quick look at /Planning doesn't seem like it
#
[eddie]
besides Summit looks like the rest of US stuff is September or later

chrisaldrich wants to do IWC LA sometime this year, but not sure about that timeframe
#
[Rose]
That's a shame. because I am heading to SF for the following Wednesday (Relay FM Live event is on the Thursday), and as I'm free from the Thursday before that... I thought it might be a good opportunity to meet new people

[chrisaldrich]
is juggling too many potential camp balls for the late summer/fall. I'll try to narrow them down this week.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I'm also awaiting word on dates for 3 other potential conflicts... Though none in August at the moment.
#
[Rose]
LA would be convenient, there are good connections to there from here and then on to SF! Plus I'd get to meet more IW people in person ;)
[schmarty] and [cleverdevil] joined the channel
#
[cleverdevil]
Yes yes to LA please 😄
#
[cleverdevil]
Let me know if I can help [chrisaldrich]... my schedule is a bit hectic, but I will try to help however I can.

aaronpk++ nicely done. Now there’s an expectation that all IndieWeb videos will be migrated there eventually 😂
#
Loqi
aaronpk has 35 karma in this channel over the last year (241 in all channels)
#
[tantek]
“saved all in one place” 😂

migrating old videos is gonna be so much work

And yet, something which should be clear enough as a task to open up to volunteers
