I’ve just put a bunch of food on the grill for tonight’s IndieWebCamp West – Eat Your Own Cooking Pre Party. It’s not too late to join us tonight or RSVP to Camp this weekend.

Martha Burtis (Twitter)Shucks. I kind of want them to do both (well, maybe not *Drupal*). But I take your point.

I want it all too! If you’d like to join us at IndieWebCamp this weekend (free online), let’s have a session there to brainstorm how we can have our cakes and eat them too.
I think some of the POSSE (Post on your Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere) model may work to smooth some of this over. For example, I can write my response to everyone on my own WordPress site and fairly easily syndicate it to Twitter to have the best of both worlds.
If this weekend isn’t convenient, let’s host a pop-up session or mini-conference in a bit to discuss it and see what we can hack together.
A quick reminder that IndieWebCamp West is this weekend.
There are still some registration spots open if you haven’t RSVP’d yet. https://2020.indieweb.org/west
Come join us to start, work on, or improve your personal website this weekend!
It's pretty awesome, and the issue currently with the IndieWeb is that at least for some things, only certain themes work with it. Wordpress is particularly suffering from that at the moment.

If you can make it, we’d love to have you join us at IndieWebCamp West this weekend. We’re overdue to build out more functionality for audience, privacy, and safety. Perhaps suggest it as a session if you can join?
That is probably it. Still feels like I'm cheating :P

If you’re free, next weekend we’re having an online IndieWebCamp. Come join us for some web tinkering as it relates to the #EdTech space. Proposals are already open if you have ideas.
@ChrisAldrich @indiewebcamp Do i just check this page -https://t.co/uem3ntPDEP to find the links to the indie web summit sessions?

Thank you for your help.
The wiki page you mentioned is the primary one for camp. It and some of the subsidiary pages for camp will change as the days unfold. The schedule page is now up with the times for the two days.
Since it’s a BarCamp-style format, sessions will be added and finalized on the morning of the first day beginning at around 11:30AM. If you’d like to propose a session in advance, visit the proposals page or do so on the Etherpad.
If you’ve never been to camp before, we’ve got a page about roughly what to expect. I’m also hosting an intro session next Monday if you’d like to show up for that.
If you’re stuck on the day of camp, you can always ask in the chat channel for help finding any of the resources for participating.
Come hear more about the wisdom that @MrChuckD is dropping. Join us for IndieWebCamp in two weeks.

IndieWebCamp 2020 West: June 27-28, 2020
Some of us have been wishing there were a #Domains20, but it’s a LOT to organize and execute on an annual basis. To bridge a bit of the gap, I’m collaborating with some in the IndieWeb movement to do a free online-only (due to physical distancing) two day BarCamp-style conference on the weekend of June 27-28, 2020.
The broad ideas behind DoOO dovetail quite well and the IndieWeb community has a welcoming, inclusive, and helpful atmosphere with a solid code of conduct.
The upcoming event is called IndieWebCamp 2020 West (based roughly on the Pacific time Zone). I’ve already started proposing a few DoOO-related sessions on their organizing Etherpad. I’d encourage others in the community who are interested to register for the free two day camp to talk about what we can do with our websites and how we can improve them. Students, faculty, staff, and even hobbyists of all levels of ability are welcome. If you’ve got ideas for things you’re interested in doing on or with your website, feel free to propose your own topics (either now or the morning of day one).
We’d love to see everyone there.
Day one is a brief introduction followed by various discussion-based sessions on topics of interest to those who attend. (First time attendees are given the first opportunity to schedule topics.) Day two is a creator day on which people write, create, build, code, or otherwise improve something on their website. If you don’t yet have a website, people will be on hand to help you set one up, or get around obstacles you may have for being able to use and manage your website.
Details and RSVP information can be found here: https://indieweb.org/2020/West
If anyone has questions or needs further details or help proposing potential sessions, don’t hesitate to ask.
My statewide university system is likely going to go with a single LMS across all institutions. Moodle and Canvas are the two contenders. I have my thoughts, but would like to know yours. If you would cast a vote for one or the other, let me know. Use replies to explain.

I’m helping to host an online IndieWebCamp at the end of June. I’ve stubbed out a session on A Domain of One’s Own “LMS” to discuss just this problem. I’d encourage other creators to join as well to propose other education, #DoOO, and OER related topics for that weekend. Everyone is welcome to attend.
I would love to get away from Amazon if I could and keep to the more IndieWeb methods of documenting reading, for instance, but it doesn't seem possible. In particular if they keep pulling books about current events.

There’s a proposed session (IndieWeb GoodReads) to discuss just this at IndieWebCamp West 2020. If you have other ideas for sessions, feel free to brainstorm something or propose it in the etherpad.
June 27, 2020 at 12:00AM- June 29, 2020
I’m organizing!
June 27 - 28, 2020: Two days meeting up online to share ideas, create & improve personal websites, and build upon each other's creations. Whether you’re a creator, writer, blogger, coder, designer, or just someone who wants to improve their presence on the web, there is something for you here. All skill and experience levels welcome.
Coronavirus concerns have caused us to cancel the annual in-person IndieWebSummit 2020 , so I’m helping to co-organize this two day online event and welcome anyone who’d like to join.
Passionate about helping people to get online? Volunteer to help us out.
This IndieWebCamp pop up session focused on wikis may also be very useful for those in the #OER community. Everyone is invited to attend on Saturday.
