TIL about the concept of [[commonplace book]] from @ChrisAldrich:https://t.co/Op4iexyAmm

> Such books are essentially scrapbooks filled with items of every kind: recipes, quotes, letters, poems, tables of weights and measures, proverbs, prayers, legal formulas.> Commonplaces are used by readers, writers, students, and scholars as an aid for remembering useful concepts or facts.

Reminds me a bit of a [[vademecum]]; and, of course, also of our current day wikis, personal knowledge graphs and [[digital gardens]].https://t.co/rqqz0HdoL3
The commonplace book is definitely the precursor to Vannevar Bush’s Memex and the idea of a personal wiki/digital garden. See examples at: https://indieweb.org/commonplace_book. Do add yours as an example there.
What a nice siphon! I mean the system by which you cross-posted from twitter to boffosocko.com. Which one do you use?
I always post on my site first (frequently using Micropub clients) and syndicate to Twitter (known as POSSE), usually using Brid.gy Publish, though I sometimes other methods. I also use Brid.gy for backfeed to get the responses back via Webmention.
(I really wish there were more digital gardens that took advantage of these building blocks.)

Awesome, thanks a lot for the pointer! I’ll try to set up brid.gy tomorrow. I’ve been meaning to look into [[web mentions]] for a while now!
Webmention.io can get you up and running in just a few minutes, but there’s a pop-up event to talk about other options this weekend: https://events.indieweb.org/2021/05/webmentions-beyond-webmention-io-zG4JpHhZShVA You’re welcome to attend.

I wonder if setting up web mentions for the user could be a useful agora and/or [[moa]] service.
So pkm tool users could get this “for free”. But need to see how much of a gain that would be for them.
