Jon Kuperman (GitHub)Hey @fjoshuajr @lipis @hugmanrique @aletaschner
All of you submitted awesome ideas for what the list should look like! PRs were coming in so fast yesterday it kind of got lost in the shuffle so I was hoping to move the conversation into a single thread.
My thinking was:
- Make it a Markdown table
- Maybe a separate table for each letter of the alphabet?
- Add at least a field for what subjects the person talks about
How does that sound? Should we do something different? Hope you don't mind but I'm gonna close the other issues in favor of discussing it all in here!
Thanks!
I’ve seen a few somewhat similar directory projects like this that might have some useful ux/ui/design ideas:
- https://personalsit.es/ with repo at: https://github.com/andybelldesign/personalsit.es
- https://nownownow.com/
For additional metadata, one could run a microformats parser on the homepages of these sites and return social media presences in other locations using XFN’s rel="me" set up. Something like this is done by Jeremy Keith on his Huffduffer.com service where one signs up and inputs one’s website. His service then doesn’t need to ask for Twitter, Facebook, or Github handles explicitly. Instead it relies on the service going to the homepage listed and pulling out the rel="me" values and doing it automatically on their behalf. Since many web platforms have this microformat value it can make the data acquisition easier and less manual in many cases.
- Example: Jeremy’s profile (see the “Elsewhere” section and compare it to his personal website.)
- Details about some of the implementation:

The Sacklers, one of the richest families in America, gained much of their wealth from sales of the powerful painkiller OxyContin. Will they now pay a price?

Scott Gruber (Twitter)@ChrisAldrich I can setup a zoom meeting and also use Bluejeans and am interested to try google hangouts. What kind of platform do you think you’ll use? Looking forward to hacking quietly on my personal site too.

I’m relying on what New Haven is providing (Google Hangouts). Let me know if you need help getting chat, etherpad, wiki, or other access set up/tested prior to camp this weekend.

The delivery of the pavers and the yard and a half of “Arizona river rock” is done. Now to get it all into the garden.
This is what a yard and a half of gravel looks like.
The unwashed river rock.
Sadly, the driveway narrows at the chimey, so it means a bit more manual labor.
The 9′ wide fork lift sure makes delivery easier.

In honor of IndieWeb OG Ward Cunningham’s invention of the first wiki 24 years ago today, I set up my own wiki on my own domain today.
