GWG Morning, Zegnat
#
Zegnat How is the IndieWebbing, GWG? :)
#
capjamesg Morning Zegnat!
#
GWG I have added a new weather Camera.
#
GWG But not much indiewebbing
#
Zegnat I will be picking up my first activity tracking watch (or what ever they are called these days? Just general “smart watch”?) today and then thinking of ways to integrate it with my site, I think
#
[tantek] activity tracker sounds better

#
GWG I ordered a Pinetime

#
Zegnat I ordered a tracker from Withings.
#
Zegnat [tantek]: that was my first thought too :) Looks like Withings calls the model I got a “Health & fitness tracker”

#
[tantek] nice and descriptive
#
Zegnat All I am hoping is that I can add some sort of heartbeat to my site :D
#
[grantcodes] I wonder if anyone has used something like that for a dead mans switch of some sort on their website.
#
Zegnat That is something I was thinking about. I used to have a page (or maybe it is still online) where you could request a sign of life from me, inspired by the Facebook feature where you can check up on people in case of disasters
#
Zegnat If I can get heartbeat and live location up in some way, that would be a great indicator of being alive
#
[tantek] what is disaster
#
Loqi safety check is an aggregation feature that shows a list of the people you follow in a disaster affected geographical area that have marked themselves as safe; like Facebook does at https://www.facebook.com/safetycheck https://indieweb.org/disaster
#
Zegnat Looks like the wiki can refresh my memory, and the page no longer exists: https://indieweb.org/Ask_If_Safe#Past_IndieWeb_Examples
