#
gRegor what is arena
#
Loqi Are.na is a service for saving, organizing, and discovering content https://indieweb.org/Arena
#
[artlung] It's like Pinterest but not obnoxious.
#
[artlung] Pinterest but ascetic.
#
[tantek] is anyone using / POSSEing to it? it could use some indieweb relevance in the dfn
#
[tantek] or if it's a silo, we should say so in the dfn and that's good enough for indieweb relevance IMO
#
[mattl] What is .na
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for ".na" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say ".na is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[mattl] .na is the ccTLD for Namibia.
#
Loqi ok

#
[tantek] what are ccTlds
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "ccTlds" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "ccTlds is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] what is a cctld
#
Loqi ccTLD is an abbreviation for country code top-level domain, a top-level-domain that is specific to a particular country, thus governed by its additional laws, and often more restrictive and/or fragile than non-country-specific domains; used by some in the IndieWeb community for short-domains https://indieweb.org/ccTLD
#
[tantek] ccTLDs are /ccTLD
#

#
[mattl] what is .na
#
Loqi ccTLD is an abbreviation for country code top-level domain, a top-level-domain that is specific to a particular country, thus governed by its additional laws, and often more restrictive and/or fragile than non-country-specific domains; used by some in the IndieWeb community for short-domains https://indieweb.org/.na
#
[mattl] it’s a shame we can’t have Loqi pick up the answer from those pages
#
[tantek] worth filing a feature request for Loqi to follow redirects to fragments and use a dfn if present at top of that section: https://github.com/aaronpk/Loqi/issues
#
[mattl] For some reason I thought we had that working on at least one page.
#
[tantek] I think Loqi *does* do this for GitHub comments? Let me try
#
[tantek] https://github.com/microformats/h-entry/issues/32#issuecomment-1844817445
#
Loqi [preview] [benjifs] Based on the discussion at the most recent HWC Pacific, I updated my [watched](https://benji.dog/watched) page to use `u-review-of` as well.
#
[tantek] ^ yup that worked. perhaps that's what you're remembering [mattl]
#
[tantek] which is good because then you can say hey if Loqi supports this for GitHub then it really ought to support it for the IndieWeb wiki 😄

gRegor I just joined arena today to share my HTML day. Pinterest but not annoying is a good description, haha

#
[tantek] gRegor - are you using Arena directly (by itself) or are you (semi-)automatically POSSEing /bookmark posts to it?
#
gRegor directly
#
gRegor didn't realize it's been around so long, 13 years apparently
#
[mattl] Looks like you can almost use a domain name as your URL if you set your firstname to half of the domain name and the last name to .whatever. https://www.are.na/mat-tl/channels
#
gRegor arena << [https://dev.are.na/documentation/channels Developer documentation for the API] - useful if you wanted to [[POSSE]] to Are.na
#
Loqi ok, I added "[https://dev.are.na/documentation/channels Developer documentation for the API] - useful if you wanted to [[POSSE]] to Are.na" to the "See Also" section of /Are.na https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=103143&oldid=103138

gRegor In the virtual meetup this morning, there was mentions/promo of indieweb events near the end, saw at least one person say they didn't know indieweb had events like that, so we might get some new people at HWCs
#
[tantek] or even showing up in chat
