... Ohh I deleted link to stylesheet oops, one sec. The repo is proper
#
[jgmac1106]
Fixed now don't like the aspect ratio of the top article on mobile. Learned a ton of CSS Grid lessons... Lost a few hours of my life messing up simple math or changing wrong grid areas... Fun days

Night all. Happy holidays to those celebrating

oh hey [jgmac1106] that looks much better!

maybe I'll post reasons to post positive things promptly as hopefully a reference to encourage folks who don't post often to post more often

Heartened by the interest and engagement we've helped develop for IndieWeb @HWCLondon over the past 2 years. Reinforced by posts like this by Jonas.. https://blog.voss.co/2018/festive-indieweb-and-selfhosting (https://calumryan.com/note/2280)

Are we doing any events on Friday in Austin?
benwerd joined the channel
#
[tantek]
I think there's thoughts of doing an IWC Organizers meetup
#
[tantek]
GWG: Yes
benwerd joined the channel
#
GWG
I am in at 12:37PM that day
#
[tantek]
Then I suppose we should see if we can do it in the afternoon!
#
[tantek]
!tell Manton would it be possible to do a half-day IWC Organizers meetup the Friday afternoon before IWC Austin? cc: GWG, gRegorlove, schmarty, aaronpk, et al
#

Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
GWG
I think I'm also available Monday morning
#
GWG
My return flight isn't till 1:27PM Monday afternoon

#

I was looking at a flight getting in ~5pm Friday, but I can look at earlier options.

Also planning to return Monday sometime, so that could work. I suspect Friday is better for most, though.
#
GWG
Why not a dinner meeting?
#
GWG
Although that is an issue for remotes
#
[tantek]
Yes day before is often better so we can handle any last-minute organizer related issues / changes we want to make (code of conduct etc.)
#
[tantek]
GWG, we're going to have to do afternoon anyway (instead of morning) so it will already be tough on Europe. Though Austin is 2 hrs closer to Europe than the Pacific so it shouldn't be as bad
#
GWG
Okay. I have no problem coming straight there

[tantek] It's been awhile, but there have been some search engine searches where I expected to see wiki pages and didn't
#
bradenslen
And it got me noticing that with a few exceptions most wikis don't seem to rank well
#
bradenslen
the index page might rank but those interior pages often don't as a general rule
#
bradenslen
same may be true with web directories
#
bradenslen
I have not really researched it. the server logs would tell you for Indieweb wiki
benwerd joined the channel
#
[tantek]
interesting. we usually have pretty high rankings for terms for the wiki. e.g. federated web was in the top 3
#
[tantek]
definitely bring it up here if you search for a term that you expect to see indieweb wiki pages and you don't
#
[tantek]
more that we show up highly (often top non-ad result), site deaths, selfdogfooding, webmention, micropub, microsub etc.
#
[tantek]
re: "with a few exceptions most wikis don't seem to rank well" - MediaWiki wikis tend to rank reasonably high, Wikipedia, ours, microformats.org etc.
#
[tantek]
non-MediaWikis I pretty much never see in search results unless they are one of very few results
#
bradenslen
Wikipedia always ranks.
