aaronpk I like how you can just spin up a social network as an art project now

#
[chrisaldrich] jonnybarnes: it's not an overview article, but you can find some of the relevant primary documents from earlier this year collected here: https://hypothes.is/users/chrisaldrich?q=tag%3Afreenode

[tantek] Maybe check Wikipedia? Feels like the kind of nerd drama that would be captured there 😂

#
[chrisaldrich] What is an index?
#
Loqi An index is an organized list of information on a personal website potentially consisting of tags/categories, articles, locations, authors or related information to make it easier to find particular content on a site https://indieweb.org/index
#
[chrisaldrich] I've stubbed out a page for this ^^. Edits, expansions, and other examples welcome.d

#
[tantek] oops said something in #indieweb-meta that I should have said here
#
[tantek] > that's a pretty neat page! did you also consider making an index list of all the person-mentions from your posts?
#
[chrisaldrich] It's on my list of things to do, but mostly because it's something I've actually done searches for in the past. But it's also only something that I do once or twice a year.
#
[tantek] could be a visual form of vouch-like information
#
[chrisaldrich] I'm more tempted to have an index or even search of people who's writing I /read or to whom I /reply. Perhaps GWG's Post Kinds Plugin could help make this easier since that's where that data is saved in my case.
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: It could.
#
GWG Although if I added it...
#
[chrisaldrich] It could also be fun to have an index of sites I read (and how frequently) as a means of tracking sources and potentially nudging me to expand my sets of sources.
