There have been recent discussions about blogrolls (also check out the comments) which I found interesting.
I’m sure other people thought of this before, and it’s a direction Micro.blog is going but what if we could also have a public timeline for IndieWeb-enabled sites?
So as an experiment, I’ve set up the following:
1. I subscribed to Chris Aldrich’s OPML file with a list of IndieWeb bloggers.
2. My feedreader InoReader allows me to get a combined RSS feed of bloggers from this OPML file:
3. I’ve added this combined RSS feed to WordPress Reader which is now my public timeline from where I can easily interact with other IndieWeb folks:
I’ve tried something similar using woodwind.xyz a few days ago but subscribed to all my feeds (not just IndieWeb people). It was quite overwhelming and posting didn’t work as expected so let’s see how it goes with a more targeted feed in combination with an indiewebified WordPress setup.
