Folks, where can I find the etherpad notes for past homebrew club meetups?
[calumryan] joined the channel
#
[calumryan]
Past events should have them on the event page https://events.indieweb.org/archive
[tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek]
[suze_shardlow1] ideally we archive the etherpads and directly link to them from the table at indieweb.org/hwc
#
[suze_shardlow1]
Ah yes thanks πŸ™‚ I always get so lost in the indieweb wiki and website πŸ™ˆ
#
[tantek]
hah we all do πŸ™‚ that's why we have #indieweb-meta so we can discuss how to keep improving it
#
[suze_shardlow1]
Oh dear, not sure if it’s good or bad that it’s not just me lol…

GWG
I'm working on introducing make posts to my website
#
GWG
I can't find reference on the wiki to it, but I know [schmarty] has posted the making of items
#
GWG
[schmarty]: Did you record your work on this anywhere on the wiki?
hs0ucy joined the channel
#
[schmarty]
GWG: i don't think i did
#
GWG
The wiki's /make redirects to /create Trying to decide where I'd put one.
#
[schmarty]
i don't think i really consider my work there finished, i think! i got my barebones "thing" and "make" posts into my site out of thingiverse after some scripting, but i think i wanted to finish backfeed of other people's comments and makes of my things before i wrote it up.
#
GWG
I just wanted somewhere to record the idea of those posts as a 'thing'.
#
[schmarty]
then thingiverse relaunched as a js;dr React app and broke my scripts anyway
#
GWG
Even a stub
#
GWG
[schmarty]: I thought they had an API
#
Loqi
[schmarty], GWG: I don't mean to be a bother, but can you take this conversation to #indieweb-dev?
#
[schmarty]
thx loqi
#
Loqi
you're welcome, [schmarty]
#
GWG
Loqi, I'm not sure this is a dev conversation.
#
GWG
The second part is.
#
GWG
The first is about where to put something on the wiki

[tantek]
long weekend coming up [cleverdevil]? looking for ideas for your website? πŸ˜„
#
[cleverdevil]
We actually don't have Monday off πŸ˜›
#
[cleverdevil]
But, I have a bunch of ideas already, hehe.
#
[cleverdevil]
My backlog is growing faster than I have bandwidth for.
#
GWG
[cleverdevil]: Hi!
KartikPrabhu and gxt joined the channel
#
GWG
[cleverdevil]: Nice to see you around, hope it continues
#
[cleverdevil]
Me too, me too.
#
GWG
[cleverdevil]: What's next for you?
#
GWG
I saw you have too many..but do you have just one?
#
[cleverdevil]
The first thing is to fix my integration with my Nintendo Switch playing. It broke when my son dropped our original Switch in the toilet πŸ˜„
#
[cleverdevil]
I want to do more with my Health features.
#
[cleverdevil]
I also need to upgrade my Known instance to track the latest. Its really, really out of date, and I haven't had the time to really focus on it.
#
[cleverdevil]
I still would rather just pay someone to do it for me, LOL.
#
GWG
[cleverdevil]: Do we need an Indieweb version of Taskrabbit?
#
[cleverdevil]
Good idea.
#
GWG
How about just a subsection on Indieweb.xyz to start?
#
GWG
Wanted: Someone to update my website for me.

GWG
[cleverdevil]: I did want to ask you your thoughts about the structure of play posts

[cleverdevil]
(Sorry, was emceeing a virtual event).
#
[cleverdevil]
GWG, I am constantly having to ask for direction on post structure haha
#
GWG
[cleverdevil]: More composition, not markup
#
GWG
My play posts are usually a URL for the game and a photo of the results
#
GWG
I created special pages on my site for each game
