We should look into European funding to get Zegnat, [Rose], me *and* the moose tour to Portland, as to bumb registrations for IWS.
#
Loqi
definitely
#
sebsel
is looking forward to be on a plane with all the mooses.
#
sebsel
Sorry that should've been in #chat :P

I have now officially received spam on the Berlin IWC email account
#
petermolnar
is that for the event, or you made a special one for yourself that you gave away during the event, or something else?

petermolnar, that is the email address we put on the Tito communications and so on.
#
Zegnat
Not sure if we put it in text anywhere, or if tito put it in text anywhere

sebsel, agreed - if you can get an EU grant to fly to Portland, I'm sure we can figure out some sort of co-housing or other floor-sharing situation! 😂

aaronpk (and other Portlanders), do you know of any Portland Community Colleges or Art Schools? Might be worth some explicit outreach and recruiting, to invite folks to come to IndieWebSummit to get help with setting a up their own website to publish their creations
#
aaronpk
interesting idea
#
aaronpk
if we do that, we need to make sure we have people explicitly prepared to help others get a website up
#
aaronpk
we've kind of done that ad hoc before, but usually ends up at the end of day 2 with the person who's helping people out feeling bad about not getting anything done on their own site

I was helping out a lot in Utrecht, but then I did not made it into [tonz]s sumary blogpost of demo's, because I had no demos, so yes, disappointment could lurk :P

aaronpk - very good insights
#
[tantek]
I think we should at least start with asking for volunteers to help setup new websites
#
[tantek]
if we can get more than one person to help with that, it will help spread / distribute the work, so hopefully everyone still gets a chance to work on their own site

aaronpk, and especially other folks coming to Summit, should we setup Twitter lists in the @ IndieWebCamp account of the folks attending ? Would that be useful to follow? (until we have some "open web" way of setting up a Microsub "Channel" of IndieWebCamp/Summit participants for a particular city&year)

[tonz]
[sebsel] because I wasn't there, so all I had to go on were the demo's and I did leave out the leesmap stuff (although ever since Nürnberg I am intrigued.)
#
[tonz]
[sebsel] leesmap is the type of thing I want from my reader. Heat maps of where in my network the activity is, less river of news
#
sebsel
[tonz]: It's ok! For good reasons too: Leesmap isn't a thing at the moment other than a blogpost.
#
sebsel
Should probably move a conversation about that to #dev, but I'm rethinking Leesmap now that me and Rose couldn't get the dependency running on her server.
#
[tantek]
what is Leesmap
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Leesmap" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Leesmap is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
sebsel it's ok to capture on-topic brainstorming like that, just be sure to document it as such so it's clear it's "not a thing at the moment"
#
[tantek]
especially when people say stuff like "leesmap is the type of thing I want from my reader"(!!)
#
[tantek]
[tonz]++ I like the idea of using Heat maps for better visualization / navigation in contrast to river of posts

[tantek]
and yes - to discuss Leesmap itself, sounds like a topic for dev (whereas whether to document it or not, this (meta) is the right channel for that)

[tantek]
Thanks [gRegorLove] - if the Granary thing is possible - we should create it once we have the list set up
#
[tantek]
we could also backfill lists from past events
#
[tantek]
how about "cityname-year" as the the naming scheme for the lists of IndieWebCamp participants?
#
[tantek]
the URLs would look like e.g. https://twitter . com/IndieWebCamp/lists/summit-2019 and if we backfill e.g. https://twitter . com/IndieWebCamp/lists/berlin-2019
#
[tantek]
alternatively we could use "year-cityname" e.g. the URLs would look like https://twitter . com/IndieWebCamp/lists/2019-summit and if we backfill e.g. https://twitter . com/IndieWebCamp/lists/2019-berlin - this would parallel the order both on the wiki pages e.g. /2019/Berlin and the 2019.indieweb.org/berlin sign-up page
#
[tantek]
I'm ok with either
#
[tantek]

I believe it’s a temporary bug on their end
#
[benatwork]
It’s not intentional and it’s on their roadmap to fix
[jgarber] joined the channel
#
[jgarber]
[tantek] Unclear, but at some point, Medium changed how they issue API keys. Their API docs mention sending an email for access: https://github.com/Medium/medium-api-docs
#
[jgarber]
Speaking only for my experience, I had an API key, could locate it in my account on the website, and at some point it just… went away.

Write access was never generally available, but they had a great syndication tool that would set rel=canonical to the original web page
#
[benatwork]
(TIL I still have a notification set up for Medium here)
#
[jgarber]
Could be an issue with the Ruby library I’m using being several years without an update, too… 🤔

[tantek], I checked and Granary needs an access token + secret to fetch the Twitter list
#
gRegorLove
So won't necessarily work as a URL to distribute for readers
