#aaronpkOne of my hopes in bringing the IndieAuth spec closer to OAuth is that it might be possible to adapt some of the larger open source OAuth servers into IndieAuth servers with minimal work, that way there would be more options for standalone servers
#aaronpkI think one of the hard things is it's tricky to set that up as a standalone thing, it often makes more sense to integrate it into your regular CMS, which is why you see libraries for it rather than standalone projects (with the notable exception of selfauth)
#cambridgeport90[There are lots of languages that need oAuth servers, actually. .NET is another one. I want to actually do that one of these days when I have the time and energy.

#[manton]That “150 people” Twitter Circle mentioned yesterday reminds me a lot of Path. Interesting how Twitter is trying to balance the full social network with more limited uses (this, or like only letting certain people reply).
#jackymainly b/c I don't wanna clutter up everyonee's timelines
#[manton]Cool. Being able to filter out certain post types makes sense. Although I also wonder if there’s something more Granary should be doing here? Dunno.

#[tantek]p-summary for likes text is already a reasonably well established practice I thought. Been doing it for years. jacky, view source on my home page for example and look for "like"
#[tantek]also re: blockquote[cite} and microformats, feels like deja vu, pretty sure we had that exact conversation like a few weeks ago
#[tantek]reading that smashingmag article, some good ones in there with actual user-visible impacts
#[tantek]however quoting from the HTML spec is insufficient: "User agents may allow users to follow such citation links, but they are primarily intended for private use (e.g., by server-side scripts collecting statistics about a site’s use of quotations), not for readers."
#[tantek]"user agents may" doesn't mean any browser actually bother to do anything
#[tantek]also this is literally the first time I'm hearing of "intended for private use (e.g., by server-side scripts ...)" and very skeptical about that language, it sounds made-up
#[tantek]hmm, cite on ins/del elements could be useful if there was a UI that provided a way to navigate to it
#[tantek]decent article. the cite/datetime attributes aren't particularly useful though (no consuming application examples given)

#[tantek]GitHub pages domain setup instructions are such garbage
#[tantek]I'm thumbs downing all their pages and providing some blunt feedback about how useless they are
#[tantek]and their own UI and instructions are in conflict 🙄
