aaronpk
ok this may be the tipping point for me to finally get a DB backend for p3k for better indexing/searching
#
snarfed
they include info on webmention HTTP requests and responses, original post links discovered, etc
#
tantek
aaronpk: re: "augment the reply on your site with a syndication link" you mean augment the *comment* on your site with a syndication link right?
#
aaronpk
comment yes
#
tantek
needs to split those definitions!
#
tantek
that would be really interesting
#
snarfed
barnabywalters has the honor of finding my first bug: i don't handle relative webmention endpoints. https://www.brid.gy/log?start_time=1386287755&key=aglzfmJyaWQtZ3lyNAsSB0NvbW1lbnQiJ3RhZzp0d2l0dGVyLmNvbSwyMDEzOjQwODQyMTQ5MTMzNjY3OTQyNAw
#
tantek
I mean, when you receive webmentions of replies to your posts you could go get their rel-syndication links directly from the reply permalinks
#
aaronpk
oh right
#
aaronpk
so, no new information gathered?
#
barnabywalters
I always store syndication links for any external post taproot archives
#
tantek
aaronpk - or rather, when you get the webmention for the twitter copy, you can find that you already have it!
#
barnabywalters
it’s very useful e.g. for showing tweet actions or determining whether or not POSSE replies can be made
#
aaronpk
oh I guess I already have that too since I store the full HTML and parsed JSON of external pages
#
tantek
barnabywalters - sure I store those too
#
aaronpk
speaking of which... that folder's gotta be getting huge by now
#
tantek
but we're talking about storing the rel-syndication urls for *comments* from *other people* on *your posts*.
#
aaronpk
160mb, yeah
#
barnabywalters
tantek: yep, that happens too. I don’t do anything with them yet
#
tantek
I don't know if there is anything to do with them
#
tantek
from a display/UI perspective
#
tantek
but using a webmention backfeed proxy like this gives sufficient reason to store them
#
barnabywalters
goodnight all!
#
Loqi
goodnight!

snarfed - does Bridgy backfeed likes/favorites also? or only comments?
#
snarfed
not yet, but they're on the roadmap
#
aaronpk
oohh plz do likes/favs!
#
snarfed
yessir :P
#
snarfed
please point me to any examples in the wild of sites that handle webmentions for favorites
#

#
snarfed
i've seen fewer of those than for replies

ah, thanks!

#

thanks for the stub!
#
tantek
snarfed I took the liberty: http://indiewebcamp.com/Bridgy - feel free to expand :)
#
snarfed
will do
#
tantek
took your explanation and expanded just a bit
#
aaronpk
super excited about Bridgy! a great example of a service that supports all the indieweb ideals
#
aaronpk
no reason to rebuild that code into everyone's sites!
#
tantek
aaronpk - well, usual spofs and such
#
tantek
especially if one of those silos gets pissed
#
tantek
a spof is easier to block
#
snarfed
thanks aaronpk!
#
tantek
but yes - I'm very excited about this too
#
snarfed
tantek: agreed. that's exactly what happened to me with http://twitter-atom.appspot.com/, and why it now asks users to use their own app ids :/
#
tantek
we can certainly use Bridgy to postpone building this code into our own sites
#
snarfed
we'll see
#
tantek
and perhaps postpone it so long that eventually we don't need to because of silo turnover?
#
snarfed
hah, maybe. that's a long horizon
#
snarfed
i'm all for some sites to do this themselves too though. not feeling too territorial. the more backfeeding, the better!
#
tantek
realizes he has an iOS app for compositing images and could have done that rather than stitch images with markup

snarfed - any other .gy domains you have?

snarfed
but i had it already, and it fit, so meh
#
snarfed
nah that's it
#
tantek
ok I figure we might as well keep track
#
tantek
it's quite catchy :)
#
snarfed
definitely!
#
snarfed
btw all (aaronpk tantek barnabywalters KartikPrabhu), please don't advertise bridgy too widely just yet, i'd like to let it soak for a few days and fix more bugs before announcing more loudly
#
snarfed
thanks!
#
tantek
ok no problem - wasn't going to do anything more
#
tantek
just thought it looked real enough to deserve its own wiki page
#
snarfed
oh no worries, the wiki page is great!
#
KartikPrabhu
snarfed: sure thing. btw very cool tool you have built. will investigate more when I've done my physics paper for tomorrow!
#
snarfed
i was thinking blog posts, tweets, etc
#
snarfed
thanks!
#
bret
wow how cool!
#
tantek
snarfed - please feel free to add more warnings and such on the wiki page :)
#
tantek
so anyone that stumbles upon it is warned accordingly (however you feel appropriate)
#
snarfed
thanks. for now, i'm good with the red "use with caution" language on the site itself
#
snarfed
i'll remove that in maybe a week
#
tantek
hmm seems all my iOS apps for photo composition only support square save proportions :(
#
snarfed
heh, everyone loves squares and circles these days
#
tantek
seriously
#
tantek
btw re: http://wiki.akosma.com/IPhone_URL_Schemes - if given the choice of an app specific scheme and a link to a mobile website equivalent - I think I'm going to prefer the latter
#
tantek
e.g. I will put a link to https://mobile.twitter.com/t/messages on my comm icon for "Twitter DM" rather a twitter:// URL

waves mornin'
#
tantek
hey skinnny
#
tantek
we're having good times rethinking personal mobile website UIs :)
#
skinny
tantek: i like it. do people get notification badges? like so? http://cl.ly/image/3L2u3o2Q1F3Y/Untitled-2.png
#
tantek
good question and yeah I asked that question when we were brainstorming - because it depends on a *website* being able to push a badge notification to a mobile device.
#
tantek
I think it's coming in iOS - I don't have the URL offhand
#
skinny
i think the whole thing will fall apart if there isn't a way to see when you have a message from that person
#
tantek
well let's find that out then ;)
#
tantek
I think there's sufficient benefit in just making this work for your personal mobile website that it has legs regardless
#
tantek
and I'm excited by the potential of how this could work in FirefoxOS with newer WebAPI support (WebRTC, Push notifications etc.)
#
skinny
yah, for sure.
#
skinny
what does one do who has two sites? personandplace.com and crystalbeasley.com?
#
skinny
is this intended to include a rss feed of blog posts? or just 1 to 1 comms?
#
tantek
skinny what does one do who has two IMs? two emails? two phone numbers?
#
tantek
skinny - here's a mockup of the direction I'm going: http://indiewebcamp.com/Falcon#mobile_home_template_header_icons_folders
#
tantek
needs to post that to his Dribbble.
#
tantek
scroll down to see what happens when you tap the "Contact" icon folder
#
skinny
wow that's some nascar
#
tantek
it's basically a more usable re-organization of my "Elsewhere" section in my sidebar, with direct comm/message options tossed in
#
skinny
yah, i got that.
#
skinny
whether it's more usable is still up for testing ;)
#
tantek
skinny - every iPhone home screen is ALL NASCAR
#
tantek
so this is a focused subset
#
skinny
i know right. i love that this moves away from that
#
skinny
LOVE
#
tantek
plus we hide the app options behind people instead of vice versa
#
skinny
the ux team had a brainstorm for features of fxos. I said it should leave me the eff alone.
#
tantek
what should leave you alone?
#
skinny
in better words, it should support a peaceful brain, not jangle me out of concentration every time there's a notification
#
skinny
basically, exactly what you said in your post
#
tantek
I've been stewing on that for a while
#
tantek
and finally with the person-face-icon-home-page idea it clicked
#
skinny
have you looked into the windows phone experiments in this direction?
#
tantek
I realize my viewpoint is likely heretical with all the app-store centric perspectives.
#
skinny
they have you set fave people on your home screen
#
tantek
I heard they've made some progress
#
skinny
how does this extend to things like shopping lists and evernote and such like that have little or no social aspect
#
tantek
I think there's something different happening when we split that across both parties
#
tantek
so that the callee has the choice of showing which comm channels they're ok with *right now*
#
tantek
just focusing on solving messaging / message interruptions with this
#
tantek
this doesn't address/effect mobile "tool" apps like Maps, Transit, Running, Shazam, Weather
#
tantek
those still make sense as direct icons on your launch/home screen
#
skinny
agreed. just a thing to acknowledge when we write about it. it's not either/or. you can have apps and people.
#
tantek
yes. this is specifically for mobile comms
#
tantek
hence the post title ;)
#
skinny
yah. it's just that your screenshot shows only people, no mapping or browser, etc.
#
tantek
skinny - yeah - actually completely reorganized my iPod home screen(s) Sunday night while writing this post. Took about an hour to think through and do.
#
tantek
first screen is all "urgent access" tools. As mentioned. Camera, Music, Flying etc.
#
tantek
second screen is people
#
tantek
but that's another blog post
#
tantek
and also why I only showed home screen screenshot fragments
#
tantek
rather than a "complete" home screen

#
skinny
problem is, you can't turn off notifications entirely for things like mail. you can prevent push, but the red badge will still show up.
#
skinny
would be nice to be able to say "when peter send me a message via any channel, make my phone make a noise" instead of "when anyone from twitter send me a dm, make a noise."
ryana joined the channel
#
tantek
skinny indeed. I want to turn off the red badge on Settings and App Store and I can't :(
#
tantek
skinny yes! person-specific notifications
#
tantek
ironically my Blackberry did that
#
skinny
i want a noise customized to person, not channel. No matter how Peter sends me a message, make it chirp like a cricket. When Kat, make a meow.
#
Loqi
gives skinny a noise customized to person
#
tantek
well done Loqi, well done.
#
snarfed
i have to admit, i now appreciate that my android phone doesn't do unread badges
#
Loqi
yeah!
#
skinny
what happened with loqi? i'm confused
#
snarfed
(not trying to start a platform debate, honest)
#
skinny
how are you seeing the notification shade play into this?
#
tantek
Loqi sometimes responds to things people say in funny ways.
#
skinny
i want a chocolate glazed donut
#
Loqi
gives skinny a chocolate glazed donut

Evening all, I asked this last night but it was right before a meetup started, so I'm not sure if anyone saw :) Are any indiewebbers actively syndicating to status.net or pump.io (or any other decentralized service)?
melvster and cweiske joined the channel
#
tantek
isn't decentralized service an oxymoron?
andreypopp and realzies joined the channel
#
tantek
looks like there are a few folks POSSEing to App.net: http://indiewebcamp.com/app.net#POSSE_to_ADN
#
cweiske
you can be a single person offering a service
#
kylewm
hmm, I guess I shouldn't have said "service" ...
#
cweiske
that's as decentralized as a service can get
#
cweiske
local services
#
neuro`
Can be blog comments considered as a service then?
#
tantek
how does that help?
#
tantek
kylewm the pump.io stub is pretty small - not sure if anyone here is using it: http://indiewebcamp.com/pump.io
#
kylewm
yeah, I'd be surprised about Pump I/O, it doesn't seem like too many people are using it in general. I was more hopeful about SN sicne there are a couple of mentions of it on the wiki

#
tantek
kylewm - there was never a need to syndicate to Status.net
#
tantek
users on Status.net were able to directly subscribe to *external* sites in realtime if they supported PuSH
#
tantek
Federation as it were
#
tantek
the only reason to POSSE to a service is if a) you have friends on that service (otherwise you're just spamming), and b) that service only allows people to subscribe to local-to-the-service accounts.
#
tantek
in the case of Status.net, b) was not true.
#
kylewm
ah ok that is exactly where i was confused
#
tantek
Status.net was ahead of its time (still kind of is)
#
kylewm
i have not figured out how to subscribe to an external site, maybe that feature has gone away?
#
kylewm
that is only if the other site is explicitly running statusnet software though, no?
#
tantek
that should work with my URL for example, http://tantek.com/ since I have both an Atom ActivityStream and PuSH support for it (both discoverable)
#
tantek
that's the genius of it
#
tantek
it only required that the other site support Atom with at least ActivityStreams object type markup, and PuSH
#
tantek
which of course statusnet software supported
#
tantek
so yes, you could subscribe from one statusnet server to another
#
tantek
but because it just used building block standards
#
tantek
it worked with *any* site that supported those building blocks
#
kylewm
OK so I have a statusnet instance running on http://status.kylewm.com
#
tantek
so go to your profile page there and click "subscribe"
#
kylewm
I don't have a subscribe link
#
kylewm
there is a subscribe link for me to subscribe to him
#
kylewm
(quitter being another instance of statusnet)
#
tantek
is there a +Remote button?
ryana joined the channel
#
tantek
ah, my old identi.ca/t account is gone since it got transitioned from statusnet to pump
#
tantek
so I can't check the UI there
#
tantek
anyway, kylewm - there should be a Remote Subscribe button or option somewhere in the UI - hunt for it
#
tantek
and it gives you a text box for the URL of the remote site
#
kylewm
thanks tantek
#
tantek
into that text box put a URL of a site that supports AtomAS + PuSH
#
tantek
e.g. my site does so you try http://tantek.com/
#
tantek
*can try
#
kylewm
I will keep hunting

kylewm for example here's a statunet user (and site) that reposted one of my notes: https://status.ssweeny.net/notice/304641
#
tantek
ouch - with the pumpio transition looks like all the old *.status.net links broke :(
#
kylewm
wow, that's cool
#
kylewm
yeah...
#
kylewm
*.status.net is just transitioning over like this week
#
kylewm
it sounds like they have been down for quite some time
#
tantek
all of evanpro's reposts of my notes are only still around as POSSE copies on Twitter: https://twitter.com/search?q=%40tantekcom%20%40evanpro%20evan.status.net&src=typd&f=realtime
#
tantek
note how when he reposted notes from tantek.com, and then syndicated those reposts to Twitter, it converted the reference to tantek.com to @tantekcom
#
tantek
that was not a real account on Twitter until I went and created it so that it would link to *something* on Twitter :)
#
tantek
yes this was long before we figured out all the POSSE details (or even had come up with the term)
#
tantek
kylewm - perhaps you could capture some of this discussion / information on the StatusNet wiki page for future reference? http://indiewebcamp.com/StatusNet
#
kylewm
You know, ever since I started following @t on twitter, it is recommending that I follow all the other @[a-z]'s
#
tantek
even as just a bunch of examples / FAQs
#
tantek
(that's pretty funny)
#
kylewm
I'll be happy to add to the wiki page if I can figure out exactly what is or isn't supported at this point
#

barnabywalters: I like your site redesign
#
barnabywalters
jonnybarnes: thanks! still a work in progress, as ever, but I’m much happier with the new version, both styling and code
#
jonnybarnes
is it standard for profile pics to be located at /photo.jpg ?
#
barnabywalters
jonnybarnes: no, in general using well-known URLs for things like that instead of discoverable rel values is a bad design pattern
#
jonnybarnes
so as long as I use the right rel tags I can host it wherever?
#
barnabywalters
jonnybarnes: yep, that’s the idea
fritzy joined the channel
#
jonnybarnes
barnabywalters: hang on, you have posts that are tagged, without any tags in the post: http://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/4TPEjw/
#
barnabywalters
no *hash* tags, but there are some other tags, either manually or automatically added
#
barnabywalters
I use hashtags as visual, textual gestures, then the tags box is basically a rapid prototyping and experimentation area
#
barnabywalters
also a command line — e.g. notes tagged with 'notweet' aren’t POSSEd, but I don’t want that showing up as a hashtag
#
barnabywalters
then if I find I use these little tag patterns often enough I solidify them into proper, more easily discoverable UI controls
#
barnabywalters
also I cheat and automatically add tags, e.g. reply for replies, quote if the content contains a <blockquote>
#
barnabywalters
in that case tags are being used to experiment with new post types without having to write any new code
#
jonnybarnes
thats pretty cool
#
jonnybarnes
just reading about marking up my notes
#
jonnybarnes
is the fact its on jonnybarnes.net not pretty telling of who the author is?
#
barnabywalters
jonnybarnes: looking good! you should mark up the published datetime using the <time> element with an ISO8601 datetime so it can be parsed
#
jonnybarnes
also I'm thinking of putting class=p-category" straight on the tag itself?

#
barnabywalters
jonnybarnes: yep that should work
#
jonnybarnes
let me read the Carbon spec, currently using its W3C time method
#
barnabywalters
yep, Carbon::toW3CDate() or whatever the method is should work
#
barnabywalters
but the attribute needs to be datetime not time :)
#
barnabywalters
RE authorship, in an ideal indieweb world yes we could assume that domain.com/note was authored by domain.com — in practise that is not true
#
barnabywalters
but you don’t have to put a full h-card on your note pages if you don’t want to — a simple rel=author link back to your homepage is fine
#
barnabywalters
(although indiewebify.me doesn’t detect that correctly yet)
#
jonnybarnes
time is sorted now, I think
#
barnabywalters
jonnybarnes: yep, looking good now
#
barnabywalters
oh, you should add an explicit p-name on the same element as e-content, so reader applications can easily tell whether or not to show the name as well as the content
#
barnabywalters
e.g. for articles it makes sense to show both, not so for notes

barnabywalters i think i used the right author markup on my site but indiewebfy.me doesn't recognize it: http://indiewebify.me/validate-h-entry/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnotizblog.org%2F2013%2F09%2F16%2Findieauth-unterstuetzt-openid-delegation%2F

barnabywalters
thanks for the tip-off!

how is it determined that a page is a post permalink page? no.3 on here: http://indiewebcamp.com/authorship
#
barnabywalters
oh good point — that’s not defined
fritzy joined the channel
#
jonnybarnes
you mean in general, or just on the wiki?
#
barnabywalters
I think if there’s no h-entry on the page then the authorship algorithm just tells you who authored whatever *is* on the page rather than trying to figure out *what* it is
#
acegiak
pfefferle: oh cool thanks that gives me something to work off
#
acegiak
hitting the sack atm, will have a go in the morning

snarfed: barnabywalters left you a message 5 hours, 26 minutes ago: RE revoking bridgy keys, yep I did — been wanting to try the “revoke keys” thing for a while :) will totally sign up again when I’ve implemented POSSE copy de-duping
#
acegiak
pfefferle: i also put a widget area in the top of my sempressp so i could add contact links like tantek's suggestion
#
acegiak
acegiak.machinespirit.net
#
pfefferle
you can also use built in hooks
#
acegiak
for the header area?
#
acegiak
oh as in i should make a child theme that isnt horribly broken, yes. yiu are right
#
pfefferle
add_action('loop_start', '...');
#
pfefferle
that should load the content before the post renders
#
acegiak
so much to do

how does twitter handle unicode? when a twet is limited to 140 chars, is that actual chars, or bytes?

woah, you can combine a diacritical mark with the space character?

good morning #indiewebcamp!
#
tantek
I've been getting and (remembering) examples of folks doing clever contact-like things on their personal site home pages
#
tantek
e.g. Scott has simple phone and email text links on his home page: http://scottbullard.com/ with a more link that gives you hexagonal icons! http://scottbullard.com/more.html

#
tantek
barnabywalters - yay for putting a stream on your home page!
#
tantek
looking forward to seeing a composite stream
#
tantek
more personal home page contact coolness - check out the live IM status on Jared's hCard: http://www.jaredhanson.net/
#
tantek
and subtle use of a map as background - yet also location - it's centered on his current location (pretty sure) http://npdoty.name/
#
barnabywalters
tantek: unsure about how to implement a composite stream — might try how tommorris does with expandable articles
#
barnabywalters
also not sure how music fits in a composite stream, and whether or not I want it to
#
barnabywalters
so I’ll start with something like your “last three articles”
#
barnabywalters
tantek: maybe you should make a new section on http://indiewebcamp.com/homepage with these examples

#
tantek
barnabywalters - since I come from the old school of blogging when we used to put our full blog posts on our home page, for me it was a matter of figuring out how to add notes ;)
adactio joined the channel
#
tantek
barnabywalters - nice page!
#
tantek
I don't think I've seen it before
#
tantek
barnabywalters - yes I'm finding that even I am using my "last 3 blog posts" section to quickly reference what I've blogged about

barnabywalters
these damned notes are so pushy :)

#
tantek
barnabywalters - yes I'm mixed about including replies on my home page stream. I do included them now, but I also like how on Twitter it hides @-replies on someone's profile page by default (unless you follow them I think?)
#
barnabywalters
tantek: that (hiding replies if they’re directed at someone the reader doesn’t follow) is the responsibility of the client IMO
#
tantek
I also need to update my replies to properly use a different post type since I have a shortcode letter reserved for them "r" (also for reviews - basically any posts that are a *response* to *something* or a *regarding* something in particular - e.g. bookmark posts would be "r" for me)
#
tantek
barnabywalters - sure - that's one approach
#
tantek
however I prefer to optimize for a higher signal to noise experience by default, even for new visitors
#
tantek
perhaps especially for new visitors
#
tantek
adactio - yeah!

also, from Microsoft (of all places), some people-focused mobile UI thoughts: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/how-to/wp8/people/people-hub
#
tantek
key difference I'm envisioning with the indieweb approach: a *split* of the people-focused UI between the user and who they're looking to contact.
#
tantek
Putting the callee/messagee in control of preferred methods of contact, comm-channel-availability, and whitelisting who can contact them how. Much more "peer *and* peer" rather than just a self/device-centric approach.

apologies for the humblebrag, but i have to admit…
#
snarfed
is enjoying watching siloed comments and replies stream onto his site automatically: http://snarfed.org/2013-12-06_new-app-engine-logo#comments
#
snarfed
(the old bridgy had been doing the same backfeed for a while, but the new one is much nicer. among other things, the commenters' pictures show up!)
glennjones joined the channel
#
tantek
snarfed - well done! great example of backfeed in action.
#
tantek
especially love the permalinks to the original comments
#
snarfed
thanks! now to nudge you into automating webmentions on tantek.com so you can use it too :P
#
tantek
(though I would have linked the datetime to the original - odd to create a second permalink for someone else's comment)
#
tantek
(yeah seriously)
#
snarfed
yeah, it made it take longer, but i'm glad i did the little polish stuff.
#
tantek
it really shows
#
tantek
I think UX polish is essential for the indieweb
#
snarfed
agreed, the second wordpress permalink is weird, but kinda reasonable. it's a general drawback with posseing and pesosing, there are multiple copies of things, even beyond what we expect with normal webmention replies
#
tantek
UX polish is one of the big reasons FB, Twitter etc. crushed "feed readers" and other previous attempts
#
snarfed
definitely! it's important across the board, which includes us
#
snarfed
hopefully i can eventually get a more frontend/UX person interested in bridgy
#
tantek
yes - and I hope we as a community and continue to emphasize UX as one our distinguishing aspects compared to previous / other open source / protocols efforts
#
tantek
(BTW re: implementing on tantek.com: keep getting distracted by other things - my latest mockup for the icon / comm mobile personal web UI: http://indiewebcamp.com/Falcon#mobile_home_template_header_icons_folders - scroll to see how "Contact" expands)
#
snarfed
oh man, so cool
#
tantek
this feels doable with some CSS (and maybe just a tiny bit of JS)
eschenal and eschnou joined the channel
#
tantek
yeah I'm hoping it feels super seamless when accessed via mobile browser. we'll see :)
#
snarfed
ignore me, ignore webmentions, at least for now. keep pushing on that stuff!
#
snarfed
re CSS, definitely
#
tantek
I want it to look and feel beautiful to really showcase what is possible with open personal web based design / interaction.
#
tantek
ok - off for a quick run but I wanted to show you those screenshot mockups first to at least share my thinking while I'm building.
#
snarfed
good call, thanks

snarfed
enjoy!

aaronpk, not sure what you mean

i'm guessing you don't mean you'd like to implement backfeed for comments on reddit or hackernews…?

if so, it's hopefully straightforward for anyone who knows python to add a new silo to bridgy

#
tantek
aaronpk - do you really think backfeeding hackernews/reddit comments to your own site would improve the signal to noise or experience?
#
snarfed
tantek: you're probably right, but i can see a few different motivations for backfeeding, and improving signal to noise is maybe just one
#
snarfed
e.g. capturing/centralizing the discussion is another, if you care more about that than curating each comment for quality
#
snarfed
i love that about webmention, that it decouples capturing and archiving from deciding whether/how to display back to users
#
tantek
that's a good point
#
tantek
might be useful just for archiving
#
tantek
maybe viewing in a personal dashboard
#
tantek
instead of having to actually go visit those sites
