↪ Aral Balkan: … Beauty of that interaction is it has authenticity, substance, a story. It feels real. The app becomes a solid object to #play with. #xd

Aral Balkan the other interesting effect I get is an increase in perceived productivity. Closing an app via multitouch instead of physical button seems a more fluid UI

Aral Balkan you are not alone :) So much fun.

My #microformats-2 parser will allow for generic parsing (i.e. won’t have to be updated for each new µf) and I’ll do my best to handle nested µf well

Increasingly, my #indieweb activities are moving from “Publishing my own content” to “Intelligently parsing other people’s content”. As such, I am writing a PHP #microformats-2 parser

↪ Ben Ward: If cross-posting is how this is going to go, it would be quite neat for http://t.co/m7UL6uVU to add summary card mark-up to their permalinks

Ben Ward I cross post, so added to my todo list. Would also be good if they followed http://indiewebcamp.com/syndication_formats

↪ Drew McLellan: "When we first launched, Tweets were a simple 140 character update." Yeah, now they're like totally rich living conversations.

↪ Evan Prodromou: @BarnabyWalters Augh! Please, don't use that insanely bad name. http://t.co/Cj9Dp4j7

@evanpro very good point. (And “Gaia” for the UI? Please.) Firefox OS it is, then :)

The latest #squoose is good, but I’m getting a bit uncomfortable due to the creepily loud breathing :|

↪ Brian Suda: will app dot net beat out tent dot is? Will these words even make sense in 18 months? Thinks he prefers tent over app.

@briansuda I did start writing a complainey blog post about both of them, but decided to spend the time building something more webby instead.

↪ Sandeep Shetty: @BarnabyWalters Done!

@sandeepshetty fab :) I want to get Salmon working so I can reply/fave/etc. from my own software but it’s bloody awkward. Currently in the process of publishing some ideas on how magic sigs could be more effectively used. In the mean time, Pingback FTW!

My mum’s deputy head of a 6^th form. Her head teacher sent a package back to my dad marked “Do not open”. It was a dead rat.

WTF?!
