Speaking of IWC....
#
[chrisaldrich]
Makes me wonder if it might be worth it to have a slow web week for the IndieWeb. Perhaps to coincide/culminate with the summit at the end of the week?
#
[chrisaldrich]
We could plan other various activities, workshops, lectures, presentations, etc. throughout the week as well. During the week, people eschew reading material (doomscrolling) from social media and only consume from websites and personal blogs for a week.
#
[chrisaldrich]
The tough part is how to implement actually doing this. Many people would have a tough time finding interesting reading material in a short time. What are good discovery endpoints for that? WordPress.com's reader? Perhaps support from the broader feed reader community?
#
[chrisaldrich]
In any case, anyone want to start working at some (online only) Summit planning for June-ish?
#

[chrisaldrich]: What happened to IWC Europe?
#
GWG
But you know I'm always up for it
#
[chrisaldrich]
I haven't heard/seen any updates recently, but would have thought it'd be hitting about now-ish.
#
GWG
Shame
#
[chrisaldrich]
But in planning/scheduling if we start now for June on a West coast timezone we can do another in the fall on East coast time. Hopefully next year in person events can/will resume.
#
GWG
Well, the question we asked is whether we should try for something in the Fall.

what is slow web
#
Loqi
slow web is a movement based on deliberately designed web sites focused on more well user-paced experiences instead of real-time, reactive, or frantic experiences, and has principles similar to and compatible with IndieWeb principles https://indieweb.org/slow_web
#
[tantek]
[chrisaldrich] ^ it's already a thing
#
GWG
[tantek]: What do you think about trying for anything in the fall?
#
GWG
I was sort of thinking we might do something in June, and if the end of year opens up...
#
[tantek]
GWG, it will depend on the city and state
#
GWG
[tantek]: Agreed
#
GWG
So, scheduling an online event

Can anyone remember the article recently that was written about IndieWeb vs indieweb (based on capitalisation of the name)? Looking to reference it in a talk, but can't remember who wrote it

GWG [chrisaldrich] my time and energy for IWC Europe kinda fizzled out with Life Happens, apologies for not making you both aware!

oh hey TomMorris is around
#
GWG
[tantek]: I hope he makes an appearance.. it's been Ages

#
GWG
[tantek]: I think he was in the IWC NYC picture I found last night. As were you
#
[tantek]
we didn't have a lot of photos of that, more would be good
#
GWG
[tantek]: We had a photo policy back then, didn't we?
#
[tantek]
no we did not, though I think it's better to use the superset of what options individuals have (about their own image)

[tantek]: I may send you the photo for an opinion
#
GWG
I'm bad at remembering faces
#
[tantek]
I can usually remember faces
#
[tantek]
yes I can try to help
#
[tantek]
I think #indieweb-chat is ok for that too, informal photo discussion off the record
#
GWG
When did we start having a photo policy?
#
[tantek]
I feel it started explicitly (like with badge annotation) at IWC Berlin?
#
GWG
[tantek]: I am going to pull all IWC photos I never shared and see what I have
