[prtksxna] should we start an vHWC for India?
#
KartikPrabhu
what is vHWC?
#
Loqi
Virtual HWC is an online Homebrew Website Club for IndieWebbers who either can’t make a regular meeting or don’t yet have critical mass to host one in their area https://indieweb.org/vHWC
#
prtksxna
[xavierroy]: That is a great idea!
#
prtksxna
[xavierroy]: I could also try to make the Goa HWCs remote friendly, but since I don't have control over the venues it might be a bit tricky (hardward and such).

prtksxna: alternatively you could record the sessions
#
prtksxna
KartikPrabhu: Yep, we did record this one, I'll start cutting them once I get my hands on the footage :)
#
KartikPrabhu
"footage" :P
#
KartikPrabhu
funny that digital videos are still measured in foots
#
prtksxna
Yeah, should've said …hands of the mp4s or something
#
KartikPrabhu
maybe I'll attend one when I visit India sometime
#
[xavierroy]
[prtksxna] a Google hangout or zoom would be great.

Hey guys I am experimenting with my archive navigation at https://jay.funabashi.co.uk/2018/
#
j4y_funabashi[m]
I have year / month / day pages
#
j4y_funabashi[m]
I like the map at each level but I don't like how many clicks it takes to get to my posts
#
j4y_funabashi[m]
I do like that it answers my question "hey, what was I doing September 2018"
#
j4y_funabashi[m]
So I think it just needs more experimenting with the amount of post detail in each level
#
j4y_funabashi[m]
Has anyone got any suggestions for good navigation of a potentially large archive? Most of the silos I interact with are focused on 'now'

Accessing historic data is really important to me as I use my photos/videos as a sort of journal

It depends a bit on posting density. What Google photos does is surprisingly good, but photo thumbnails work better than text
#
[KevinMarks]
The twitter archive they export isn't bad eg kevinmarks.com/tweets

@GWG Enjoyed the WP Weekly podcast! Also thanks for the Micro.blog mention. 🙂

Yes I have found that months when I am on holiday can have 100s of photos but regular months have 10s so how to display those extremes is interesting too

maybe do one feed for photos and another for holidays?
#
j4y_funabashi[m]
I think I want different levels in my templates: birdseye, summary, detail.

[KevinMarks]: the twitter example is nice, I have found that traditional calendar designs are a good source of navigation inspiration https://indzara.com/2018/12/2019-excel-calendar-template/

what is chickens
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "chickens" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "chickens is ____", a sentence describing the term)
