Oh dang, that did show up in my feed but I didn’t look at the title. That’s definitely a session I’d have joined if I’d noticed the subject matter.
#
[fluffy]
I really need to follow the actual RSS/Atom/whatever feed for the sessions. I thought I was at one point but apparently not!

I found it a bit ironic that very early on in the session "knowlwedge graph using microformats? do you need SPARQL" was brought up (which AFAIK has nothing to do with making the indieweb more approachable), and then was immediately followed by "problem points for people new to the IndieWeb - what jargon comes up?"
#
[tantek]
I expect there may be some context missing there, however the fact that even a session on approachability elicited a conversation on "knowledge graph" or "SPARQL" to me points to some sort of cultural challenge. Like how did it seem like this was the right session to even bring that up?
#
[fluffy]
Does anyone in indieweb even use sparql? I hadn’t even heard of it before and it sounds like it’s a bad remnant of back when Movable Type insisted on using RDF in an embedded comment for whatever reason

short answer: no, certainly not for anything functional on their website.

<c​apjamesg#4492> [tantek] We moved that discussion to chat. A few people who attended the session were new to the IndieWeb (yay!) so it's not so much that it was discussed rather is something that someone might have wanted to follow up on later.

<c​apjamesg#4492> I know that particular configuration of points is rather confusing. Maybe we can move the SPARQL bit to an addendum at the bottom of the archive?
#
IWDiscordRelay
<c​apjamesg#4492> We didn't cover knowledge graphs other than to say they were possible 🙂

I’ve been wanting to write a blog post about getting into the indieweb. also I should see if I kept a copy of my “intro to the indieweb” talk I gave at seomoz last year (if not I’m sure I could ask a former coworker if he’d let me “borrow” the slides back)

[tantek] i mostly brought up knowledge graphs + SPARQL out of curiosity

curiosity++ — those topics just seemed off-topic for a focused discussion on approachability. Maybe better for a general discussion like at a HWC?

[tantek] I will research what HWC is! I look forward to it 🙂
#
[tantek]
what is HWC
#
Loqi
Homebrew Website Club is a growing world-wide network of meetups for everyone who wants to take back their web experience from social media silos, and own their online identities & content, or just want support with blogging! https://indieweb.org/hwc
#
[tantek]
when is HWC
#
[ender]
oh! I saw that before but I thought it was related to homebrew (the package manager for mac and linux)
#
[ender]
i'll try to attend!

<c​apjamesg#4492> [ender] There are two HWC meetings coming up this Wednesday: https://events.indieweb.org
#
IWDiscordRelay
<c​apjamesg#4492> [marksuth] and I host the HWC London / Europe call. I _think_ GWG (David, who was mentioned in the meetup yesterday) runs the Pacific one.
#
IWDiscordRelay
<c​apjamesg#4492> HWC's often cover a wide range of topics. We always love brainstorming on cool new things one can do with their website!
#
IWDiscordRelay
<c​apjamesg#4492> I am curious to hear what you want to do with knowledge graphs!
