For those interested in annotation and audio, I ran across this demo in the Hypothes.is slack earlier: https://audio-service-835b1.web.app/
#
[chrisaldrich]
It's a clever little UI that could also be used for making microcasts directly into one's own website.
#
[chrisaldrich]
Though it may be IndieWeb slack specific too...

Well this reddit is at least tangential to IndieWeb, especially in the breadth of arguments being made: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25695682
#
[tantek]
er, HN, sorry
#
[tantek]
I always get them confused

Heya Notion users, I figure one of you here has figured this out (or knows an answer as to feasibility) https://twitter.com/solarpunk_girl/status/1348679696586854402
#
@solarpunk_girl
Anyone got a good example of Notion being used to display information as a stand-alone microsite?

#
[tantek]
What is a microsite?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "microsite" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "microsite is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
petermolnar
what is Notion?
#
Loqi
Notion is a note-taking and multiple post drafting app that is apparently highly recommended for its clean user interface however lacks offline first support https://indieweb.org/Notion
#
petermolnar
> highly recommended for its clean user interface - ::insert Marty McFly "Hey, I've seen this before!" meme::
#
[Raphael_Luckom]
that's one of the snarkiest top-line summaries I've seen Loqi repeat. I remember it from last time I saw it, it made me wonder if we expect someone reading the wiki to assume that the indieweb attempts objectivity.

The IndieWeb has a IndieWeb-specific opinion per /principles /code-of-conduct etc.

hey anyone have a sign-sized print template for printing out a tweet? you know, so that it looks like a formatted tweet on a large sign you'd hold up at a protest? considering additional syndication options
[tw2113_Slack_] joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich]
a roll of 3x5 ish stickers for that use case could be fun... or maybe a t-shirt in the vein of "hello my domain is..."?
#
[tantek]
I figure the surreality of a tweet in large print on a protest sign ought to be good for media coverage
#
[tantek]
and "impressions"
#
[tantek]
what is reach
#
Loqi
reach is usually used to refer to the number or extent of people that see or are at least shown a specific post (of yours) in whatever aggregator or reader app, site, or home (news) feed feature of a silo that they use to view posts https://indieweb.org/reach
#
[chrisaldrich]
I'm sort of surprised not to have seen something like that already... great idea.
#
[tantek]
just needs a name then
#
[tantek]
how about Publish on Own Site Then Enlarged Reproduction [chrisaldrich] ?
#
[tantek]
what is POSTER
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "POSTER" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "POSTER is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
POSTER is an abbreviation for Publish (on your) Own Site, Then Enlarged Reproduction, the practice of posting content on your own site first, then printing out a large version to put on a board or sign, like to carry to a protest or march, to [[reach]] more people in person, especially where there is media coverage. Great use-case for retypable permashortlinks to provide viewers a way to directly interacting with your content online.

[chrisaldrich]: 3x5 - cm? m? '? "?
[Raphael_Luckom] joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich]
3x5 inches is a very common size for index cards in the US,
#
[chrisaldrich]
as well as for printed photos come to think of it
#
[chrisaldrich]
The correct A-size equivalent wasn't coming to me when I wrote it...
#
beko
knowing the web there's probably already an online service for this :)
#
beko
Entered printmytweet.com at random, was not dissapointed. Close enough :D
#
[chrisaldrich]
How about syndicate to Pillow, Coffee Mug, phone case? https://mashable.com/article/ways-to-display-tweets/
#
beko
they have frames :D

i made this SVG template for pen plotting on sticky notes back in 2011
#
[schmarty]
lol sorry i should link to the version on my website rather than thingiverse zv
#
[schmarty]
you could get a bigger plotter and scale it up 😄
#
aaronpk
i wonder if my mom still has her old plotter

#
[fluffy]
I wonder if anyone’s adapted a modern CNC platform for use as a plotter
#
[fluffy]
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen 3D printer hacks for them
#
[fluffy]
okay so the answer is ‘extremely yes’
#
[Raphael_Luckom]
they also have the cool looking wall mounted ones with the two cables
#
aaronpk
omg that gives me an amazing idea i would totally do if i had more time.. -> #indieweb-chat
