is anyone using anything other than a time-stream ( reverse-chronology list ) to display their posts on the Web?

KartikPrabhu, no, never thought about it. Not even sure what I'd do... Alphabetical? By rating (like IGN)? By Author?
#
KartikPrabhu
icco: I'm not sure either. But Kottke's claim that blog = stream got me thinking
#
icco
Yeah. Have you listened to his Design Matters interview? It's really good, talking about how he sees content publishing, etc.

and old post by Luke Wroblewski on blog interfaces. Particularly interesting is the section on 'Continuums' and its possible relation to webmentions

KartikPrabhu: I actualy used to have a wiki as my home page, super not chronological
#
aaronpk
had sections with featured articles and things
#
KartikPrabhu
sections by theme/category?
#
KartikPrabhu
interesting! you do have it sectioned by theme/category

aaronpk I think the wiki slowness problem may have been an odd Firefox caching bug. Was having a problem loading one of the scripts.
#
aaronpk
ah weird
#
tantek
tried to track it down but it was inconsistent. :/
#
tantek
was comparing it to Safari
#
tantek
I would try Chrome except their OSX Keychain support is so broken that I can't launch it without hitting cancel 20 times.
#
aaronpk
whoa what?
#
tantek
because I have Twitter tabs open in Chrome, and Twitter tries to log itself in, or Chrome is trying to log me into Twitter, it asks once per Twitter account in keychain with a 100% modal dialog that blocks everything else. have to force quit Chrome. total piece of sh*t.
#
aaronpk
that's bizarre, i've never seen that
#
tantek
cancel means cancel. cancel doesn't mean try again with another account.
#
aaronpk
and I pretty much exclusively use chrome
#
tantek
happy to demo to you (or any Google person)
#
aaronpk
i believe you, i'm just wondering what on earth causes it and why mine is not in that state
#
tantek
do you keep your Twitter user/pass info in OSX Keychain?
#
aaronpk
well chrome has my twitter user/pass saved, so yes?
#
tantek
well you have multiple Twitter accounts yes? do you keep them all in Keychain?
#
tantek
next time you launch Chrome, try clicking Cancel when it asks to access your Keychain for twitter.
#
aaronpk
apparently only my @aaronpk account is saved. and it won't prompt me to save any other accounts
#
tantek
!tell tommorris - nicely done. 
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
aaronpk
logging in with safari prompted me to add another to the keychain
#
aaronpk
but chrome doesn't know about that apparently
#
aaronpk
come to think of it...
#
aaronpk
i have seen what you are talking about, but in safari!
#
aaronpk
and it's extremely irritating!
#
tantek
yeah - it's made me give up on Chrome.
#
aaronpk
I wonder why I only have that problem in Safari
#
aaronpk
(I was able to reproduce it just now in Safari btw)
#
tantek
maybe I should try deleting my Chrome and re-installing
#
aaronpk
poll: which would other people be most inclined to use. an app which 1) PESOS's your last.fm songs to your site. 2) a bookmarklet that creates a new bookmark as a post on your own site. 3) an app which PESOS's daily step counts from your Jawbone UP account
#
aaronpk
(and yes I realize it's not a good time of day for an IRC poll)

#
tantek
aaronpk - re (2) - are you using some sort of standard web action endpoint for bookmark posting?
#
aaronpk
it's a surprise :)
#
aaronpk
but no, not web actions
#
tantek
well I vote for (2) as that seems like it has the most prior art to build upon
#
tantek
and that way we can also compare the UI flow of what you're building to existing bookmarklets / web action URL endpoints.
#
aaronpk
perhaps I should rephrase. what is the content type you'd be most interested in adding to your site: 1) music, 2) bookmarks, 3) step counts
#
tantek
still, there's the passive vs. active distinction
#
tantek
I'd think more people would try the active option (2)
#
tantek
rather than setup something automatic to post to their site.
#
tantek
(speaking for myself too)
#
aaronpk
active/passive is a good distinction there
#
aaronpk
ok, will go with bookmarks for now
#
tantek
I just figure the UI problems/challenges are more "well known" so it should be easier to improve upon them.
#
tantek
plus (2) is not specific to any silo which is good too

KevinMarks: tantek left you a message 11 hours, 27 minutes ago: your "blogging's not dead" post needs an update, mentioning what *has* died in that post since that post, e.g. Google Reader sharing, Technorati State of the Blogosphere, etc. Perhaps even some of the sidebar links.

!tell barnabywalters it looks like you are bookmarking things by tagging them "bookmark", is that a correct assumption? http://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/?tagged=bookmark
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell him that when I see him next
tantek joined the channel
#
aaronpk
whoa, my bookmarks site has mf1 markup on it... I never realized that
#
KevinMarks
fair point tantek
#
aaronpk
wow! no, not at all! just simple entry-title and entry-content classes

wow tommorris added his example to that page in 2007

!tell tantek Would <span class="h-cite"><a class="u-url p-name" href="http://example.com">example</a></span> be a valid minimum h-cite example? (would be used for a bookmark post)
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell him that when I see him next
#
aaronpk
oh crap but then we're back at the problem of nested microformat objects in micropub http://indiewebcamp.com/micropub#Nested_Microformat_Objects
inimino joined the channel
#
aaronpk
hm, I need a good example of microformats2 markup for a bookmark. barnaby is just doing them as text notes, and my bookmarks don't have mf2 markup.
#
aaronpk
is a bookmark an h-entry with an embedded h-cite? that would let me add my own text when bookmarking something, like I currently do on aaron.pk/bookmarks
#
aaronpk
is a bookmark just an h-cite? maybe with some sort of annotation property that would let me add my own note about the citation?
#
aaronpk
anyway, food for thought. let me know what you think or if you have any other examples I can look at
benwerd and bear joined the channel
#
aaronpk
upon further thought, I'm leaning towards treating a bookmark as a citation (h-cite) and leaving the "add my own note" use case for later, possibly just as creating a separate text post that shares one of my citations
#
aaronpk
that leaves the base case of the way most people think of bookmarks covered completely by h-cite
#
KartikPrabhu
aaronpk: how about h-cite with a propert p-annotation?

aaronpk, you could make it even more minimal: <a class="h-cite" href="http://example.com">example</a>
#
tantek
with implied u-url and p-name
