Evan Prodromou:
If you were thinking about Kickstarting an Open Source RSS reader, well, today's the day.
evanp funny, I’ve been thinking of doing that for a while. Not sure I’ve got what it takes though, and I’m booked up for the next 4 months :/
Jovian Salak:
Yippee a new #pope. Why is everyone so excited? The new pope will still have to defend the *integrity* of a ridiculous religious corporation
Jovian Salak u dissin pope? HE WHO WEARS POPE GEAR (large, medium or small), WHOSE COMING IN THE POPEMOBILE IS ANNOUNCED BY WHITE SMOKE? BOW BEFORE HIS POPE HAT
Josh Emerson:
@BarnabyWalters One-day-olderness day surely. It’s not like you become a year older in a day.
Josh Emerson every day is one-day-olderness-day. So happy ODOD!
Josh Emerson:
@BarnabyWalters One-day-olderness day surely. It’s not like you become a year older in a day.
Josh Emerson well that’s the point — the way we calculate age is so arbitrary I thought I'd poke fun at it. “One day olderness day” is even better, but not so feasible for putting on cards :)
Relly Annett-Baker:
New fun game. Watch youtube videos in Japanese with automatic translation on. Goggle at the nonsense spewed forth by translate.
rellyab to be fair, last time I checked it produced nonsense even when not translating!
Aral Balkan:
So http : // twitter . com / @aral (sans spaces, of course) is a valid URL. If clients used it as a mention we’d have fully-qualified names.
Aral Balkan current #indiewebcamp rough consensus is to use URLs as nouns, pingback (or webmention) as notification infrastructure.
Personally I am doing some rather more complex stuff where I author notes using @-names, which get parsed by @cassisjs into .h-x-username twitter.com-linked anchors, then I transform those into .h-card’s with data either from my contacts DB (at the mo mirrored from my personal CardDAV share) or from the identengine.com API for people I don’t know. Then all the links in a note get sent pingbacks.
Fat chance of twitter implementing that though ;)
Jovian Salak:
@BarnabyWalters It's like cheese - all it takes is a couple of drops of lemon, and BOOM, milk becomes curds! Okay, maybe not best e.g...
Jovian Salak “BOOM”? I would be concerned if milk made that noise when mixed with lemon!
sophiedennis if it’s any comfort, most of my friends saw it years ago, I was a but late to the party for some reason :)
John Nye:
People that have implemented PubSubHubbub in their feeds, do you push just to the http://t.co/8HAlj65nyf? or others? Or use RSSCloud?
john_nye I use the appspot server (for the moment — it doesn’t handle HTML)
bruce lawson:
@BarnabyWalters would love to. Also have a "real" original folk/rock song that could use dulcimer
bruce lawson cool, I don’t play much #dulcimer any more (mainly #gurdy) but would be nice to get it out again! I’ll drop you an email with some lyric ideas I had earlier :)
Sophie Dennis:
@john_nye consider the iron an investment. We're still using the one @andycayenne got at university.
@sophiedennis @john_nye @andycayenne they give you an iron at uni? FORGET FREELANCING SIGN ME UP
bruce lawson a popular tune/song with new (often geeky) lyrics retrofitted, e.g. your “like a rounded corner”
Kyle Weems:
Trying out Twitter in the browser only. Because sooner or later that's all we'll have.
cssquirrel I much prefer twitter in the browser because I can get rid of ads and promoted tweets, and customise the UI so I reply, retweet and favourite on my site instead. Pity I can't so easily on mobile — perhaps an ios app which is just a web view with some custom JS… #webactions #idea
@anna_debenham Paul Lloyd Pro thanks, that’s great! I’ll certainly use that as a building block/reference it in my own work
Laura Kalbag:
All you strange folk telling me to push my brain back up my nose…listen, if it comes out my ears, it’s going back that way…
Laura Kalbag if you're a #peanuts fan, you could always try jump starting your brain. But watch out for trees.
.Brennan Novak yeah, it’s like driving — the ability to concentrate on your overall journey, the road in the distance, the road ahead, the road directly in front of you, the road behind and all the various controls at the same time.
Sophie Dennis:
And our other persona, Daisy. We all like Daisy more than Lily #gsj13 http://t.co/hCC6Zg3ic7
Erin Jo Richey:
@BarnabyWalters It's quite nice music for working to or walking to actually. Although my choice in music is sometimes a bit strange.
Erin Richie thanks for the recommendation, I’ll give it a go! RE strange choice in music: try one of my favourite experimental #gurdy pieces out:
Aral Balkan:
By the way, quite a few examples of the male gaze (http://t.co/fRk67WPvjz) in those jokes. See if you can spot them.
http://t.co/PolrjpK8YM
Aral Balkan I was just reading those and thinking “I’m surprised Aral’s shared this — then again perhaps it’s some kind of test”
