[chrisaldrich] You know it's a good camp when you have more tabs open at the end than when you started. Now we can spend the holidays reading, documenting, and closing all those tabs before the newww year. 📑

[Joe_Crawford] San Diego has weather: rain specifically headed our way. Gotta get in the ocean before it starts.
# [Joe_Crawford] Also plans for our flight were scuttled after the people we were going to go quick to visit both tested + for Covid.

# [chrisaldrich] gRegor, I think some of it is sketched on my last /typecast post at https://boffosocko.com/2023/12/17/typecasting-with-indieweb-building-blocks/, but other pieces are in /handwriting or on https://boffosocko.com/2021/12/20/handwriting-my-website-with-a-digital-amanuensis/

# [Joe_Crawford] I was doing some playing with it, and the OCR in Google Docs involves opening an uploaded photo _as Google Doc._ And I started a bit last night with IFTTT with adding Google Drive and Google Docs permissions and a folder it can watch but I don't have all the steps.
# [chrisaldrich] broadly any photo opened in Google Docs will automatically do OCR on the photo and include the text into the document. I then use IFTTT to create a micropub post to my website described here: https://boffosocko.com/2020/01/21/using-ifttt-to-syndicate-pesos-content-from-social-services-to-wordpress-using-micropub/ (this is probably the most involved step, which might be solved in other ways).
# gRegor Yep, was just reading https://support.google.com/drive/answer/176692 which says to right click the image in Drive and open as a Google Doc
# [Joe_Crawford] I think in theory once created the whole thing can be turned into a recipe others can use too - and configure using a folder to watch and an endpoint to post a draft to. That may exist but I was more playing last night

# Loqi [preview] [Chris Aldrich] Using IFTTT to syndicate (PESOS) content from social services to WordPress using MicropubIntroductionWhat follows may tend toward the jargon-y end of programming, but I’ll endeavor to explain it all and go step-by-step to allow those with little or... https://i0.wp.com/boffosocko.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/IFTTTMicropub-1.jpg?fit=1200%2C600&ssl=1
# [chrisaldrich] I think I'm using variations of that IFTTT set up to watch a dozen services now (many via RSS) to port data posted elsewhere back to my own website so that I own archived copies of all of it. It's been incredibly useful.
# [chrisaldrich] I've always thought that social silos micropub PESOS as a Service would be a great IndieWeb tool for someone to build. You could take RSS feeds from someone's social media sites, suck in the relevant data, massage it a bit and push back Micropub posts to their personal site (with authentication) to allow them to use almost any social posting service a s micropub client for their site.
# [chrisaldrich] tantek, I haven't looked closely at some of the options on Android in a while, but many have mentioned that iOS has some really good OCR for photos that could be used to jump a few steps (and skip over Google, which I'd like to do myself).
# [chrisaldrich] It's likely that one could do photo -> OCR -> share functionality into a mobile micropub client -> post on you site pretty quickly too.
