[Denver_Prophit] Is there a wiki anywhere on brid.gy or elsewhere about how to track and mention send twitter live chats? Usually post around 10 questions and get replies and reposts. I assume each question post to twitter has to have the source link back to my event article?
#
[Denver_Prophit] I'd like to capture all the comments
[snarfed] joined the channel
#
[snarfed] [Denver_Prophit] yup, each question post needs to be a POSSE post ie either it needs to link to your article, or your article needs a u-syndication link to the tweet. https://brid.gy/about#link
#
[Denver_Prophit] [snarfed] Yep my template for a post includes the tweet ID to populate the u-syndication link. But, reposts and comments are what I'm curious about from brid.gy to a tweet.
#
Loqi [snarfed] [Denver_Prophit]: it seems like this conversation is more appropriate for #indieweb-dev
#
[snarfed] not sure about that Loqi
#
[Denver_Prophit] Loqi: I just needed to ensure they are picked up by brid.gy webmention
#
[snarfed] yup. u-syndication link is enough. and all responses (likes, reposts, comments) are handled the same,
#
[Denver_Prophit] [snarfed] so ok, each question in the twitter live chat needs the link to the article. 😃
#
[snarfed] no, if your article posts have u-syndication links, that’s enough. the question tweets don’t also need to link back. details in https://brid.gy/about#link
#
[snarfed] have you tried it? is it not working?
#
[Denver_Prophit] I have. I am trying to SOP the process. So I tweet with the hashtag each question. That process needs to link back to the article, I thought, to pick up webmention. Or, are you saying I should use a reply to tweet from the first one to post more than one question?
#
[snarfed] if you want to backfeed a tweet’s responses (comments, RTs, likes) to its original post on your site, then you need either 1) the tweet to link to your post, or 2) your post to have a u-syndication link to the tweet
#
[snarfed] you can do both, but you don’t need to, either one on its own is enough
#
[Denver_Prophit] OK. So tweet the first question with link from my post that has a u-syndication value. I should reply to my own tweet with follow-on questions to get fed into brid.gy mention, right?
#
[Denver_Prophit] Having multiple tweet ID's could get hairy 😃
#
[snarfed] you can use one thread or multiple, up to you. if you do multiple, each top-level tweet needs to follow the same formula ^
#
[Denver_Prophit] right! I could YAML the values of all the tweet IDs for syndication. More complex! lol
#
[Denver_Prophit] Might go with YAML. Update the article after the live tweet chat event. Get's hard to follow tweet threads.
#
[Denver_Prophit] I might have to direct them NOT to repost with comment as that is considered just a repost with no content I think?
#
sknebel this sounds all very -dev channel ;)
#
[Denver_Prophit] sknebel no. It's a webmention topic. Not code related.

#
[snarfed] bridgy handles quote tweets (aka reposts with comment) fine, if that was the question. https://brid.gy/about#which
#
[Denver_Prophit] OK I'll go read that!
#
sknebel its very much implementation related if you talk specific markup and how to implement it
#
[Denver_Prophit] sknebel no I got that part. It was planning the twitter live chat event so that webmenion is applied via brid.gy capabilities.
#
[Denver_Prophit] And now I'm off to plan 😃
#
sknebel right, and the discussion you are having right now, how to specifically do that using bridgy is a dev channel topic
#
[Denver_Prophit] #indieweb-dev , to me, means talking about `<code>` not webmention tatics.
#
aaronpk other way around, #indieweb is for user-facing feature discussion, not implementation (regardless of whether the implementation discussion involves code)

#
[Denver_Prophit] [aaronpk] I see. I was trying to keep non-developement topics out of #indieweb-dev But, I'll use if for a variety of webmention topics, then.
#
[Denver_Prophit] The topic should be updated in this channel then. It says user friendly chat. You already have a #indieweb-chat channel. 😃

jacky [Denver_Prophit]: the #-chat room is random banter
#
jacky watercooler-esquwe
#
[Denver_Prophit] Jacky: I just read this channel is for "other way around, #indieweb is for user-facing feature discussion, not implementation (regardless of whether the implementation discussion involves code)" The channel name + the description is vague for a newcomer. But, I digress.
#
[Denver_Prophit] RN is says: "user-friendly chat..." See how that can confused someone new?
#
[Denver_Prophit] confuse*
#
jacky I think you see something different; I see different topic names in IRC than that on Slack
