It's almost the end of August and I've not made a post for this month's IndieWeb Carnival. The child has been on summer holiday, which leads to not much solo thinking time. Marisabel picked an excellent topic which I should have a lot to say about: Colors. Unfortunately my sleep deprived mind struggles to think…| BrittHub

Some time in the last 25 years, ISPs stopped saying they made you "part of" the Internet, just that they'd help you "connect to" the Internet. Most people don't need a static IP, sure. But when ISPs stopped offering FTP and WWW hosting as a standard feature (shit though it often was), they became part of the tragic process by which the Internet became centralised, and commoditised, and corporate, and just generally watered-down. The amount of effort to "put something online" didn't increase b...| Dan Q
I grew up in the 20th Century. Because of that, I suspect my first experience of the word “totem” was probably in a piece of fictional media (television, probably) where the word “totem pole” was used. That usage was likely not respectful to the Native Americans depicted in the fiction. see Reel Injun That doesn’t...| ArtLung

The pushback I received made me think about a way to re-clarify my message about digital gardens. The last thing I want people to think is that one is better than the other. I rather communicate the freedom digital gardening has given me, and how I've written so much more since taking this approach to writing for the web.| Elizabeth Tai

A photo, a post, a video, a podcast. These are among the things that are now called ‘content’ on social media. You create content and present it to your followers the right way, at the right time. Have you tried monetise it? Well, wouldn’t it be great to be paid to do what you love? It became common thinking that turning your hobbies into profit is a great idea. Except, when you do, they become something you have to do with consistency, no matter what, to be relevant. Capitalism wants y...| Silvia Maggi's digital home

I found the Blog Question Challenge via an article in my feed reader, and I thought it would be an interesting thing to write about. So, here we go! 1. Why did you make the blog in the first place? As a self-taught programmer, I have always learned by doing small projects on various things I found interesting at different points of time. I wanted to share my experience of and learnings from some of these with the world. So I turned to blogging about programming, to start with. Then I graduall...| Abhinav's Notes
Tricking people into seeing unexpected content and converting some of them into customers is a tale as old as the web. It was the perfect model for the takeover.

You’ll probably read this recipe and think wait, this is just overnight oats but you’d be wrong, because this is a recipe for overnight oats that someone who cares about you remembered to make for you last night.

Hacker News doesn’t send Webmentions when a post is created like Lobste.rs will, and there’s not currently a service on sites like Brid.gy that will provide them for you.

I've been playing around with the IndieWeb, then stumbled on twtxt and finally yarn.social. I like the notion of having something twitter-like to post random thoughts, without having all those thoughts owned by a company. Anyway, who knows if I’ll keep it up, but my feed is here: https://anthony.buc.ci/ . If you use yarn.social, twtxt, or the IndieWeb, say hi!| Anthony Bucci

Last week, I updated my blogroll to include everyone in my RSS feed reader. While I read a lot of topical blogs and newsletters, I also follow a goodly number of interesting people I don’t know as well as acquaintances.

Over the past several years, you’ve probably heard me or other web geeks talk about the IndieWeb, but just hearing about it doesn’t necessarily tell you what it actually is, exactly. The reality is that it’s both sort of complicated but also, at its core, really simple!

I’ve been fiddling with an instance of Known over on social.omgmog.net. As part of my fiddling I’ve been trying out some of the plugins for Known.
