@ChrisAldrich The #IndieWeb isn't a business like many of the examples mentioned here, but it's doing doing a lot of the things mentioned in the article and doing them well. It's definitely one of my favorite communities of builders and collaborators. https://boffosocko.com/2020/01/31/when-community-becomes-your-competitive-advantage-harvard-business-review/ (twitter.com/_/status/1223417869385338886)

@Sadike25 #IndieWeb camp Accra; Join us this month at the UDS Navrongo @MozOpenLeaders @GOIFoundation https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/indiewebcamp-accra-olx-ghana-CmCiz3daOPWB (http://sadik.goifnetwork.org/s/20qssH) (twitter.com/_/status/1223607575981092865)

#
[jgmac1106] question for IWC organizers since we were able to raise enough funds to get the venue in Accra is now live: https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/indiewebcamp-accra-olx-ghana-CmCiz3daOPWB do I also need to make a page on https://2020.indieweb.org and on the wiki?
#
aaronpk 2020 site is optional but it can be a nicer landing page to send people to
#
[jgmac1106] I can make the event page a nice place to land, just didn't want to do that if we are discouraging the practice
#
aaronpk the wiki is useful for providing the full schedule grid and things like that, but you don't need to repeat the basic info from the events site or 2020
#
[jgmac1106] perfect, thanks, yeah changes the sructure of the wiki page for the event a bit
#
[jgmac1106] I think I will skip the 2020 for this one since we have a ticketing solution
#
aaronpk Oh yea that's the other main reason for the 2020 page, to embed the ticket form there
#
[jgmac1106] this will be the page we share publicly: https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/indiewebcamp-accra-olx-ghana-CmCiz3daOPWB and then we will plan, hack, and collaborate on the wiki
#
aaronpk That works!
#
[jgmac1106] oh that was the other question for online as well, can people send an rsvp there?
#
aaronpk The events site turns off RSVPs if you provide a ticket URL
#
[jgmac1106] ooh cool feature
#
[jgmac1106] I made a badge for attendees and wanted to send it back to the rsvp as a webmention....well that wouldn't be valid, rsvping isnt showing up, will send to reflection post after camp
#
aaronpk The events site does collect webmentions still, just not RSVPs
#
[jgmac1106] I might send those from the wiki, url carries more street cred
#
aaronpk so people can post follow up notes and photos there
#
[jgmac1106] I am excited to try it. More excited for [Sadik_Shahadu] who had to pull off a heck of a fundraising campaign to secure the venue, 27 people already signed up
#
[jgmac1106] It is a ten week programming opening up with an IWC and then closing with an IWC during Open Source week
#
[jgmac1106] think I might just PESOS the wiki page from our planning wiki to indieweb.org...no bad idea people will break the microformats and the regular wiki formatting

#
[jgmac1106] need to make a fun activity that introduces basic wikmedia mark up

[jgmac1106] !tell gwg can you email all Online recipients and remind them to suggest any sessions or +1 any ideas so we can finalize schedule
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: Do
#
Loqi GWG: [jgmac1106] left you a message 1 minute ago: can you email all Online recipients and remind them to suggest any sessions or +1 any ideas so we can finalize schedule
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: Where is the list?
#
GWG You set up tito
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
GWG !tell [jgmac1106] If you give me the access, I will do so
#
[jgmac1106] you don't have ti.to, my bad. i will send you the spreadsheet, good to send 2-3 emails before event
#
[jgmac1106] I will email it to you, don't want to share fhere with email addresses
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: You have my email. Should I have tito access?
#
GWG Either way, I will compose and send an email
#
GWG Did we ask the attendees if they wanted public registration?
#
GWG If I wanted to add a notation to the wiki or the event page re the number of attendees registered?
#
@jgmac1106 I would like to personally thank @namedotcom for Sponsoring @IndieWebCamp Accra, Elm City Webmakers #NHV, and for giving free domains to my #EDU106 students. These folks rock!! (twitter.com/_/status/1223636699760283648)
#
aaronpk You can always list the number of attendees

@jgmac1106 Huge h/t to @mozilla and @OpenMozLeaders for Sponsoring our OLX #IndieWeb #OER Ghana project https://t.co/qf4yubL0H7 (twitter.com/_/status/1223637799842336769)
#
GWG aaronpk: What sort of webmentions can the events page receive?
#
@jgmac1106 Thank you to all the sponsors of @IndieWebCamp Accra: OLX Ghana https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/indiewebcamp-accra-olx-ghana-CmCiz3daOPWB (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/21sWkZ) (twitter.com/_/status/1223641141494546432)
#
aaronpk GWG: it knows how to show blog posts, notes, photos and RSVPs
#
GWG aaronpk: So, I should see if anyone rsvped to the event?
#
aaronpk It doesn't show RSVPs if there is a registration URL
#
aaronpk If the RSVP post has some text in it as well then it will show it like a comment
#
GWG aaronpk: So if you have registration, how can you transmit that to the event page?
#
aaronpk You don't
#
aaronpk if you have registration, it's expected you deal with it there
#
GWG aaronpk: Okay.
#
[jgmac1106] gwg realized it makes no sense for me to send you the email list, we message right from ti.to, just draft the email and I will cut and paste it in
#
GWG Should I have titom
#
GWG ti.to?
#
GWG I will do so after dinner
#
GWG As writing it on a phone is problematic
#
aaronpk GWG: have you tried logging in to tito?
#
GWG aaronpk: No....
#
aaronpk that could be a way to find out if you have access already
#
GWG aaronpk: I have never signed up
#
aaronpk well that answers that then
#
GWG aaronpk: More, wasn't sure if we had a shared Indieweb account
#
GWG As we do for other things
#
aaronpk it's more like github, where you add individual people to the team
#
GWG Then, I should sign up for an account and ask to be added if I need it in future then

#
GWG I have never handled the ti.to side, but then I could compose the email if [jgmac1106] adds me

@JamieTanna I interact a lot with Twitter from my website, and as such the interactions you see are i.e. "Like of @indiewebcamp's tweet" which isn't super helpful. So I've just added the ability to mark up my interactions with some context of what the post was so… https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2020/02/kaefh/ (twitter.com/_/status/1223707882195169284)

@jgmac1106 ↩️ I like @smashingmagazine, great PWA, #IndieWeb Dev channel (irc, slack, discord, matrix) good to stay up to date on vanilla HTML/CSS/Javascript being used in wild.

[Christina_Hendr I'm planning to attend IndieWebCamp online next weekend, and it's hard for me to think of a session because I am so new to all this. As in, a session I'd like to see is something like: what is indie web and how do I get started? Would that be reasonable? Really, the very basics.
#
[Christina_Hendr And also the session would answer the question: what/who/how/why is Loqi? 😀
