finished up demo project from @IndieWebCamp West Maker Day: https://jgregorymcverry.com/mybookshelf I wanted a bookshelf of reviews using rotating cards, CSS Grid, and no javascript. h/t to @smashingmag tutorial: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2020/02/magic-flip-cards-common-sizing-problem/ #edtechchat (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/2bsMDI)

[tantek]
gRegorLove, [jgmac1106], and lastly [chrisaldrich] only because you've been wikifying so much lately, I think we need a new dedicated "personal library" page that incorporates both from https://indieweb.org/book#Library_Examples and from https://indieweb.org/read#Other_Examples
#
[tantek]
heh jacky too 🙂
#
gRegorLove
heh, one more term for all this stuff I'm still trying to differentiate
#
jgmac1106
yeah I can work on it in the morning unless I wake up to edits
#
jgmac1106
but gRegorLove made me think of the difference of how you are thinking of u-read-of posts as like a status change versus writing a book review. but I wasn;t really worried about any metadata…wanted the info, then wanted pretty info
#
[tantek]
well right now the info is awkwardly spread across subsections on separate pages
#
jgmac1106
ohh reading your brainstorming session that makes sense….but I think I would be nesting a h-cite p-read-of in an h-entry or h-review
#
jgmac1106
yeah,….I can take a look in the morning, gotta get the kids to bed now
#
[chrisaldrich]
+1 to the personal library bit... I was thinking the same thing two months ago, but was too lazy then... it is spread across two or three different pages....
#
[chrisaldrich]
is personal library the right name for it?
#

#
gRegorLove
personal library redirects to the /read#Other_Examples currently
#
gRegorLove
so yeah, merging those library examples together on some other page seems a good first step, whatever it's titled
#
[chrisaldrich]
or something like bookshelf, digital bookshelf, other?
#
[chrisaldrich]
that quirk has been bothering me for two years honestly... 😉
#
gRegorLove
> As clusters of interesting behavior emerge here, they may be worthy of labeling and their own pages, e.g. "personal library", "owned books", "books to read" etc.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I think maybe it's been the naming issue that's kept me from separating and merging them....
#
gRegorLove
idk, it feels a bit preliminary given how experimental everything is, but I don't have a strong opinion about it. Guess as long as the pages are linked together and it's not confusing, it's good!
#
[chrisaldrich]
I wouldn't used owned books, because a large part of mine is an "anti-library" of sorts...
#
gRegorLove
what is library?
#
Loqi
A library in this context typically refers to a software library, and sometimes to a physical library, like a personal library that an independent may use to collect books they have read https://indieweb.org/library
#
gRegorLove
ok, expected that
#
[chrisaldrich]
Personal library sounds like a start until we think of something better.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I'll tinker for a few minutes while my food is cooking...
#
gRegorLove
ok. I'm around too, though (re-)starting some indiebookclub updates
#
[tantek]
similarly
#
[tantek]
what is delicious library
#
Loqi
Delicious Library is https://delicious-monster.com, an application for keeping inventory of your stuff with minor emphasis on sharing with friends https://indieweb.org/Delicious_Library
#
[tantek]
since public libraries now allow you to check out music, dvds, etc. seems like personal library is a reasonable analog (so to speak)
#
gRegorLove
interesting, hadn't heard of that
#
gRegorLove
"Catalog everything.
#
gRegorLove
Like, 10,000s of items. You don’t even own enough items to hit the limit."
#
[tantek]
yeah, just collecting some currently semi-disconnected bits here adjacent in chat so it's easier to formally connect them in the wiki
#
[chrisaldrich]
I'll do personal library with a rough meaning of a collection of digital or physical objects (noun) while the read page will be more related to posts detailing a verbal activity around these sorts of objects (bookmarking, acquiring, reading, wanting to read, etc.) if that gives us enough of a distinction between the two?

[chrisaldrich]
gRegorLove, I could have sworn once that there was a way to move sections of media wiki and create redirects for those section headings so that direct links to them from outside that page would redirect to the new page for instances like personal library. Are you aware of such?
#
gRegorLove
Hm, I don't think so
#
gRegorLove
particularly when the destination page has content already, even if just #redirect

[jgmac1106] there's a new /personal_library waiting for you to add an example and thoughts to it. 😉

GWG
Downloading the entire video from the weekend to my Plex server
#
[tantek]
How many "episodes" do we need to start releasing "seasons"?
#
GWG
[tantek]: I proposed we all watch an old session on one of those Watch Together services
#
[tantek]
that would be very odd especially if it was with people in the video watching themselves and adding more commentary
#
[tantek]
instead of watch together, we should do it on Zoom, and then record that
#
GWG
[tantek]: Let's say we watched the original Vouch video.
#
[tantek]
then the next year we could do the same
#
GWG
It might push forward the conversation

GWG
I also still want to start putting Pop-Ups on the calendar.

GWG
But I'm trying to figure out best advice for it.

I don't remember if the Newsletter used to pick up videos from the IndieWebCamp YouTube account, but I'm pretty sure we haven't set up any automation for the IndieWeb Newsletter to find and highlight Archive.org videos...

I remember GWG found an RSS feed for Archive.org that had some search query parameters by account as well as keywords.

This would be a good week to have that feature...

Yeah, worth filing as an issue for the newsletter so we don't forget! We've got a bunch of feature requests

Oh, I see the Github page for it now... somehow missed it the first time around.

[chrisaldrich] does your PESOS catch your < < edits as well like that ^^^ 🙂 ?

hmm this is clever

tantek, I just did that edit almost as a test to see if it would catch the Loqi-based edits on my behalf. It should, we'll see in a moment. 😉
#
[chrisaldrich]
It does! 🎉
#
[chrisaldrich]
I'm filtering the atom feed of the wiki for either my domain name or my chat-name to capture the two types of edit syntax.

#
[tantek]
amazing!
#
[tantek]
[chrisaldrich] so if I happen to mention your name in a wiki edit summary, presumably that would also get it to show up on your site?
#
[chrisaldrich]
If it's in the form of "chrisaldrich" it would. I'm debating on showing these edits publicly or not, so at the moment, they're all drafts. But in those cases, it conveniently serves as a pseudo-notification, which is a nice bonus I guess?
#
[tantek]
right, like a mention! that makes sense
#
[chrisaldrich]
Though in that case it shows up in my posts queue instead of my comments/mention queue.
