Halsted (cygnoir.net)Diamine Inkvent, Day 23: Wonderland. If by “wonderland” you mean “Tang orange drink mix.”
I *really* hope we can get good #GenesisWP #IndieWeb support! Looks like there's a good start, but I'd love to see the Genesis Theme Framework listed here: https://t.co/jdMv4cblK3

I caucus with the FedWiki folks these days but my work use case is out of their sweet spot. They may encourage me to stretch. /nod @dobbse

Luis Quintanilla (Luis Quintanilla Personal Website)I'll go over a lightweight implementation for sending Webmentions using F# and test it using the webmention.rocks website. Source code for this post can be found at the fsadvent-2021-webmentions GitHub repository.
My contribution to this year's F# Advent Calendar. Thanks @sergey_tihon for organizing it.

Sending Webmentions with F##dotnet #fsharp #indiewebhttps://t.co/7uC9UMwjjV
so we all say 'bring back webrings' and shit, but who's actually doing it like do you have a (non-facebook, non-twitter, non-youtube) personal website that wants to be in a webring with me
— Talen Lee (@Talen_Lee) Dec 14, 2021Not webrings, but @indiewebcamp has the tools you seek

I miss the days when blogs were conversational. Twitter certainly expanded the conversation, but I fear we’ve lost the deep, nuanced conversations from the early days of blogging. Now we mostly write articles like journalists rather than engaging in professional interaction
— Phil Windley (@windley) December 10, 2021It was born of necessity. Before blog comments appeared, the conversation had to be blog-to-blog. And it was ok to write just a sentence or two in response, more than a tweet but less than a fully-formed essay.
— Jon Udell (@judell) December 10, 2021Trackback was one of the best web ideas ever and wonderful way to enable those conversations.

We could still choose to use our blogs that way. I wonder what conditions would motivate that choice.
I’ve seen a growing group of others who are using and displaying Webmentions for site-to-site conversations. If you use WordPress, there’s the Webmention plugin for the notifications part and the Semantic Linkbacks plugin for the display part. (One day the two will merge, we hope.)
Plugins and modules exist for a number of other systems if they’re not already built in.
I’m using all these on my site to have site-to-site conversations with others. I’m also using Brid.gy to bridge the gap between WordPress and Twitter (and others). If you prefer, you could read all this on my site.
Happy to help others set this up for themselves, should they need help. #DoOO
Jamie Tanna (jvt.me)I'm replying to you from my #IndieWeb site on a domain I own that then publishes to Twitter so I can interact with you, but still owned by me. It's built on open standards (https://spec.indieweb.org) and is a great community around owning your data
Peter Hagen (Twitter)I built something cool in the last few days: a search engine for good blog posts!

The most exciting part is that it's actually useful.https://t.co/Qg5VvxJVO6

Tracy Durnell (tracydurnell.com)So glad I could make it to this IndieWeb popup! Interesting to hear other viewpoints and talk things through.
Tracy Durnell (tracydurnell.com)I was happy to see another woman attending this IndieWeb popup event, but would like to figure out how to bring more women into the IndieWeb sphere.
