I realized that I haven’t been syndicating content to Mastodon.social in a while, but now that I’ve made some changes to my site and now get responses back via Brid.gy, perhaps I’ll change that?

Short content: a microblog of status updates or short notes
It’s subtle, but I’ve come to appreciate that the Hypothes.is interface often conveniently covers up sidebars and advertising online as I read, think, and annotate.
Starting to think I should have worn a coat.

I changed the theme of my website the other day, so I spent a few minutes this morning updating the microformats in it to be more IndieWeb friendly. Here’s hoping I haven’t broken anything too badly.
I’ve been experimenting with watch posts for part of the day. I’ve now got a few different methods for PESOS from silo sites to my website via micropub just about perfected. The changes will help to take off some of the manual burden of posting quickly and regularly.

Trying out a potential new theme for my website in the new year. Perhaps something to tinker on a bit? May take a few days to iron out all the small bits, particularly for making it IndieWeb friendly, but out of the box it doesn’t seem too bad with some minor ports into a child theme.

I’m really loving some of the subtle changes that Inoreader has been making to how they display titleless feeds. The presentation of my micro.blog feed is really spectacular and almost as good as reading on micro.blog itself.

I was searching for a non-fiction science title and randomly ran across what is a new (to me at least) genre of romance fiction: it looks like Harlequin Romance + Amish Culture = Amiquin Romance? None of these have come out yet and are all written by different authors.
Spent a few minute to finally set up my website with Brid.gy so that it’s now pulling responses back from Mastodon. It’s so nice to see all the interactions that were once “lost” to me coming back to live with their proper contexts on my website.
For those looking to tinker with their websites as it relates to interacting with Mastodon, the IndieWeb has a reasonable number of potential options in addition to your ability to roll your own.

The introduction lays out where this intends to go pretty well. This comparative look at history should itself make an interesting contrast to some of the Ibram X. Kendi I’ve been reading lately. I’m quite curious to delve into the particular cases and histories they’ll be laying out.

I remember running across Serendeputy just around IndieWebSummit. I wonder how something like this that’s built for the open web might support discovery methods for the IndieWeb? Is there a way to dovetail it with Microsub services somehow?
Jason Butler has an interesting looking product.
