After my recent posting where I asked people which RSS feeds they read, I received several responses. One of them is Peter’s. Like me he was publishing an OPML file of his feeds already. OPML is a machine readable format that most RSS readers will be able to import, so you can subscribe to blogs I...
Ton, this is great! Though perhaps you're reinventing the wheel a bit more than you may have needed to? I'll see you your blogroll and add in images and descriptions as well! https://boffosocko.com/about/following/ A while back I did something similar to what you and Peter have done, I just did it with the old built…
@GiftedTawk Need to go back to my notes, you are like the third person in Allentown, PA in three days expressing interest in the #IndieWeb summit.
We should see if you folks could organize a meet up and talk the importance of having fun and kids chillaxing on their own domain

Hey @GiftedTawk@Spellacy was one such soul (still digging for the other person)...no need to hide the Bell on this one.
and best part of building your own websites nobody cares if you crack it

Perhaps you were thinking of Tim Clarke (@FloatingTim) or Lora Taub (@ltaub)? That would give you 4 not counting their students that might be interested. That's also more than enough to do a Homebrew Website Club on a regular basis too. I know that some have set up remove viewing/remote attendance parties for Camps/Summit in…
I was reading about how Cathie LeBlanc sometimes felt overwhelmed about logging the movies she'd recently seen: I have to be better about posting my movie “reviews” more quickly. I get overwhelmed thinking that I need to write something about the movie when really the whole point of me doing these reviews is just to…
Opinion: Facebook and Google's growing power has spurred calls to decentralize the web.
A bit too narrowly focused. They're not looking at very many examples either. Nor are they taking in the idea that not EVERYTHING needs to be decentralized, just that many could be to create more competition. No mention of IndieWeb efforts here either.
I love the text in this slide. It's very IndieWeb. Stop relying on a broken social media environment Reinvest in our own personal websites
If it helps Domains 2019 attendees, I've got a Twitter list of educators, researchers, technologists, and others who are using DoOO, IndieWeb, or other related ethical edTech technologies. The list includes people who attended in 2017, many of those tweeting during 2019, as well as those regularly tweeting about DoOO and closely related topics throughout…

It would be cool to have a site like this of IndieWeb web sites. This reminds me a bit of Kevin Marks' Unmung Mastoview tool. Perhaps pulling from IndieMap's list of sites would make building such a thing easier? Would certainly make an interesting discovery tool--almost like a centralized webring or a directory of sorts.…
Greg (@jgmac1106) Have you met fellow #DoOO-er Trip Kirkpatrick (@triplingual)? Perhaps you two could heat up a HWC-New Haven?
“Seeing good examples of existing domains is crucial for showing students what is possible in creating their own domain, says @CassieNooyen #domains19”
This is a lot of the value behind the idea of Homebrew Website Club and even the early blogosphere. Seeing interesting/useful things others have is likely to make you want that thing too. #KeepingUpWithTheDomains #Domains19

Joseph explores the extent to which discourses about community suggest an antidote to or escape from capitalism’s depredations, while distracting us from the supplementary role that community actually serves with respect to capital, filling its gaps and smoothing over its rifts in ways that permit it to function untrammeled. The alternative presented by community allows…
The premise behind your post would make an incredibly valuable conference session at the upcoming IndieWeb Summit. Any chance you're attending (in person or remotely)? We need your ideas. Thanks for bringing them up!
I imagine that the first part of this project will focus on how it got to be this way, what got missed or ignored in some of the early warnings about what was happening online and how those warnings were swamped by the hype depicting the Internet as a space of radical democratization. ❧
I love the brewing idea here. We definitely need this.

The audio link is automatically queued up to the beginning of the Aaron Parecki interview about IndieWeb. I only listened to that portion of the show.
Desire paths are “the trails that are instinctively chosen and created over time” in spite of constructed pathways.
In a recent post on The Open Faculty Patchbook, Maureen Glynn reflected on her experience with desire paths, both literal and the figurative ones we see in our courses.
“students will always find unanticipated and wonderful ways to enter, exit, and navigate through the learning events and environments that we design…”
For this Daily Extend, we ask you to either find and take a photo of a real desire path near you, or describe a “desire path” in the navigation of a course that you either took yourself or witnessed students taking. Bonus points for taking some kind of desire path route to completing this Daily, or the June Daily Extend Challenge as a whole!
I mentioned it yesterday, but my "desire path" for the June Daily Extend Challenge is to accomplish the entire trip using only my personal website and just a few feeds in my feed reader rather than using Twitter directly. smeuse n. \ ˈsmyüz, -üs\ plural -s dialectal, England : a hole in a hedge or…
