Writing a plugin to auto-h-card twitter @names even if they’re not in my address book using identengine.com
#meta: Added ”Styles temporarily disabled” banner to explain CSS-less-ness of my site as per Brennan Novak’s suggestion

Brennan Novak:
@BarnabyWalters whoa now! That is some dedication! You should put a banner *YES, CSS IS CURRENTLY DISABLED*

Brennan Novak great idea!
Essentially, my previous design had reached local maximum, so I’m going back to basics.
I’ve decided it’s important that styling doesn’t fight or contradict markup, so I’m hoping that adding it progressively only where it is needed will make my code more maintainable.
Got a lot of work done on my #indieweb publishing software today. This is in preparation to using it on a friend’s site, then releasing all the components into the public. Exciting stuff!
…and with a mere ~160 lines of code changed (including very little markup), I am much, much happier with the overall aesthetic.
Decided I’m sick of my current site design, but that with a few very small changes I can make it look a whole lot better. Woo design iteration!

Aaron Parecki I use and enjoy Piwik. Real-time analytics is great and the API can be really useful too. In fact I don’t use it as much as I’d like to.
FInally, I have some relatively sensible pagination. /notes returns last 10 days by default, single days can be specified with ?day=YYYY-MM-DD or ?day=YYYY-DDD

New website is live! It’s been a long time coming. I’ll release the useful bits of code soon, probably not the whole thing #indieweb
And now I have to deal with such things as broken links, broken feeds, broken XML. I’m breakingthin.gs
Putting together a Contacts module for my new website ‘cos the web’s a social network and social = people
Analytics reporting one visitor refreshing the top sites preview page over two thousand times. It’s not even that good!
Was planning to add support for HTTP-DNT to my site. Found that safari sends DNT even when you explicitly deselect it. Aborting.
Going to try out @yieldkit on my website. Tip: Tab order on your signup form is broken
Implemented #microformats 2 on my site. Conflicted about redundant classnames, but mf2 likely to have greater longevity

More tags+@openphoto API fun: My instrument catalogue now pulls in tagged photos on most pages: http://waterpigs.co.uk/lutherie/
I can’t build an #indieweb backfeed system that uses Facebook because I’m under 18. That is protecting my privacy? Crap.
