what are hats?
#
Loqi
hat is an item of clothing you wear on your head, and that you may choose to post a gallery of on your website https://indieweb.org/hats
#
[artlung]
what is link in bio?
#
Loqi
link in bio is a common expression on silos like Instagram which disallow linking from posts, directing viewers to the respective social media profile which usually allows only one link, which motivates linking to a link-in-bio service to show multiple links, usually at a short vanity path https://indieweb.org/link_in_bio

Ended up spending most the event rearranging the menus to fit everything on iPhone SE hehe. Also, YouTube embeds.

“Hats pages” were mentioned, and seconds later hats were deployed.

[capjamesg]: it was full on hats! 🤠
#
[capjamesg]
I don’t know if I have worn my cowboy hat on a call yet. Maybe next week!
#
[capjamesg]
I have it listed on my hats page: https://jamesg.blog/hats (last image)

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but how do I know if there is there any interest or if there any people who might be interested in a HWC in South East Asian hours? HWC Eastern is 6am and Pacific is 9am in HK time (UTC+8). The the EU / UK one is 2am...
#

Is it worth testing the waters by just creating one and seeing if anyone shows up? Or is there a better way? 😅

I know one person that might be interested. @cophee (http://wingpand.com) might be interested too.
#
[capjamesg]
You could create the event and maybe share it on your site / Mastodon to see if it attracts anyone.
#
[capjamesg]
And of course there may be people in the chat who respond too!
#

Is Wing the one who created a modern looking intro style website to the IndieWeb?
#
burgeonlab
I vaguely remember seeing that name somewhere...
#
burgeonlab
oh cool!!
#
[capjamesg]
I think she is in the Discord.
#
[capjamesg]
If the timing worked out I may be able to come too, although I can’t make any promises because mornings tend to be when I get the most done 😄
#
burgeonlab
thanks, good idea. I'll try to set something this month and see. All HWCs around the world happen on a Wednesday?
#
[capjamesg]
Zachary may be interested too.
#
burgeonlab
wow I'm really getting excited!
#
[capjamesg]
https://flamedfury.com/ is in New Zealand and may be interested in an event that is closer to his time zone too.
#
burgeonlab

burgeonlab

I’m happy to share the event around if you make it. There are a few people I could send it to.
#
burgeonlab
Appreciate your help James.
#
burgeonlab
I'll let you know.
