sophiedennis one of the interesting things about #indiewebcamp is that there’s almost no discussion about privacy or security. It’s completely focused on sharing, content ownership and lowering the barrier to entry.

Laura Kalbag also, things like Aral Balkan’s great wordpress export tools make it especially easy to migrate to self-hosted indieweb — hosted w/ own domain name redirect is the achievable first step.
.Laura Kalbag “on your own space” is important but not a prerequisite of #indieweb (IMO at least). The domain name is the most important thing, so starting with hosted wordpress.com or tumblr or even just redirecting to it is valid and an easy first step.
I’d encourage you to check out the Getting Started Guide — feedback/edits gratefully accepted, it’s important to me that the guide is as helpful and clear as it can be.
Laura Kalbag would you agree that wordpress.com (and to a lesser extent, other wordpress services) is non-techie-friendly? It supports most of the infrastructure we’re using on our #indieweb sites (e.g. pubsubhubbub, pingback, microformats) and provided you hook up your own domain name is an equally valid way of owning your content/identity online as rolling your own.
Laura Kalbag no, no, no, the #indieweb web is the future :) Not any one silo.
Diaspora Export: Quickly generate a JSON file of all your public #diaspora posts #indieweb #ownyourcontent
Nick Charlton woah. that is insane.
.Nick Charlton have you seen this video of quadcopters doing scarily impressive learning? Think I mentioned it to you but couldn’t find the link #robotics #bookmark #tech
I was going to spend this evening working on #webactions browser extension, but I think it would be better spent providing a #backup/data export utility for fellow ex #diaspora users.
From my initial researches, it looks like /u/username.json
is the best bet, as it gives a JSON array of all posts written by username
, along with like and comment data. It accepts a max_time=timestamp
query param, and a _
query param, the function of which I am not sure of.
To iterate through all the pages of posts from a certain user, start with their profile URL w/ .json
tacked on the end, fetch all the items, get the datetime of the last item, convert that to a timestamp, fetch the same URL with ?max_time=timestamp
, repeat until an empty array is returned.
Can any other #diaspora users (or fellow former users) verify that, on exporting your content (Settings -> Download XML) posts are NOT included.
I have User, Aspects, Contacts and People, but the Posts element is empty (<posts />
). #indieweb #ownyourcontent

I wonder how small profile photos can be in multi-person streams whilst still giving each item a distinctive voice. #design

@andycayenne @samsweeny123 right at this very moment :) Just drilled and glued all the keys for the two maple 7 string sopranos I’m working on at the mo. If you're interested, drop me an email: barnaby@waterpigs.co.uk

Brennan Novak reminds me of a lovely book I saw called Folds for Designers — filled not even with origami but just folded paper. Beautiful shapes!
Got a lot of #gurdy turning done today. Result: two knobs, four strap buttons and two collars ready for touching up and use.
