Here's some "proactive" "predictive policing" for you:
Cops will kill people. Might as well imprison all if them now.

Aral Balkan current #indiewebcamp rough consensus is to use URLs as nouns, pingback (or webmention) as notification infrastructure.
Personally I am doing some rather more complex stuff where I author notes using @-names, which get parsed by @cassisjs into .h-x-username
twitter.com-linked anchors, then I transform those into .h-card
’s with data either from my contacts DB (at the mo mirrored from my personal CardDAV share) or from the identengine.com API for people I don’t know. Then all the links in a note get sent pingbacks.
Fat chance of twitter implementing that though ;)
Jovian Salak “BOOM”? I would be concerned if milk made that noise when mixed with lemon!
sophiedennis if it’s any comfort, most of my friends saw it years ago, I was a but late to the party for some reason :)
john_nye I use the appspot server (for the moment — it doesn’t handle HTML)
bruce lawson cool, I don’t play much #dulcimer any more (mainly #gurdy) but would be nice to get it out again! I’ll drop you an email with some lyric ideas I had earlier :)
bruce lawson a popular tune/song with new (often geeky) lyrics retrofitted, e.g. your “like a rounded corner”
My new ambition: collaborate on a #filk of some form with bruce lawson
So, which is more annoying, POSSE permalinks w/ … if continued, in () if not, or Aral Balkan’s …tweet…continued…thing…? For comparison:
Personally I find the …/() permalink/shortlink/short id pattern to be much more readable, especially when there are multiple long tweets happening at the same time, and they are mainly one or two words over Twitter’s limit. But it is more cluttered than the … technique.
cssquirrel I much prefer twitter in the browser because I can get rid of ads and promoted tweets, and customise the UI so I reply, retweet and favourite on my site instead. Pity I can't so easily on mobile — perhaps an ios app which is just a web view with some custom JS… #webactions #idea
@anna_debenham Paul Lloyd Pro thanks, that’s great! I’ll certainly use that as a building block/reference it in my own work
Anna Debenham in your style guide researches, have you come across any great open source project styleguides? I’m looking into making myself more design-accountable for a project I’m releasing soon.
Laura Kalbag if you're a #peanuts fan, you could always try jump starting your brain. But watch out for trees.
.Brennan Novak yeah, it’s like driving — the ability to concentrate on your overall journey, the road in the distance, the road ahead, the road directly in front of you, the road behind and all the various controls at the same time.
Erin Richie thanks for the recommendation, I’ll give it a go! RE strange choice in music: try one of my favourite experimental #gurdy pieces out:
Aral Balkan I was just reading those and thinking “I’m surprised Aral’s shared this — then again perhaps it’s some kind of test”
Playing with some of blekko’s algorithmic slashtags. /people seems broken (almost never returns any results, not entirely sure what it’s for. /blog seems a bit broken (compare: web actions with web actions /blog — first contains far more relevant results). Looking forward to hopefully getting API access so I can autogenerate slashtags from my XFN.
