The sunrise is a bit yellow-er than normal. There’s also a strong smell of smoke in the air, I believe it’s from the fire over in Azusa right now.

I got sidetracked tonight and jumped into the rabbithole that is Pollen and Racket, which I’ve been tempted to look into for several years for simultaneously publishing both websites and books.
In just a few minutes in a quick demo, I’ve been able to build a local website. This seems a bit easier than I had initially expected, but there’s still a way to go…
Updated my IFTTT/webhook to Micropub workflow so that it’s easier to include progress graphs and data for my book reading updates on my website. #IndieWeb
Getting “follow” webmentions from people adding me to their blogrolls is always fun. (Thanks Chaitanya!) It’s also a nice discovery feature reading through the lists of people I ought to consider following myself.
Reminder that Homebrew Website Club West Coast is tonight at 6PM Pacific for those who are working on their websites and want to show off new features or discuss problems they’re having.

This looks interesting: The Altadena Public Library has created a “Library of Things”, starting with mobile hotspots and laptops. They plan to expand to include other items like telescopes and virtual reality equipment.

What I wouldn’t give for a web browser feature wherein I could log into it with my URL and have the browser query my website to show me when I’ve previously read, liked, favorited, replied, etc. to the content on a particular URL. #IndieWeb
Playing around with images on my site. Looking to add the images within Post Kinds plugin to those templates and possibly have them appear in RSS feeds for context as well.
Testing out Sumnotes. Looks like a great tool for pulling highlights and annotations out of .pdf files.
I’m wondering when apocalyptic literature will be making a come back as a cultural genre?
Grabbing a quick bite before joining Homebrew Website Club starting at 6:00 PM Pacific. Come join some great people talking about and improving our personal websites.
