Jovian Salak:
@BarnabyWalters Not sure they're working you hard enough in Iceland! (Maybe they should pay you in coffee!)
Jovian Salak not working me hard enough? Why’dyou say that? :)
Sounds like you’re seeing some bloodthirsty stuff at the “festival” :/
Tom Morris:
There’s a talk about “geeks and professionalism” at a conference called ‘Devs Love Bacon’. (Except us vegetarians, obvs.)

Tom Morris or, indeed, us devs who eat meat but rarely (if ever), bacon
Erin Jo Richey:
Tonight Chrome crashed and didn't save my (excessive) open tabs. Shortly thereafter Firefox crashed during a video call. Good job browsers.
Erin Richie the second is rather a more impressive crash, though!
Laura Kalbag:
Cross-posting fail again. http://t.co/NXXHgrkWzG is so good for quoting a great line or two from an article. Twitter lacks the space.
Laura Kalbag feel free to point cross-poster builders towards POSSE To Twitter, we (indiewebcamp) have documented in detail best practises based on our own experiences and observations :)
Posting a note from briansuda's kindle
html5test.com says it scores 68/500 — but considering it doesn’t run js, that’s pretty good. Has support for some stuff like odd/even selectors, placeholder attribute.
Zachary Kain ☯:
@BarnabyWalters I use <pre> for poetry, since it is pre formatted text. I don't know if I'd ever warrant using a <br>
Zachary Kain as pre retains all whitespace it might be dangerous to use it for poetry — e.g. preserved indentation, lack of minification ability. In poetry’s case, br is more semantic — it represents the presence of a line break. Also you don’t get wrapping (although you may want it).
As usual, the “read the spec, make up your own mind, be willing to change it” rule applies :)
Zachary Kain Laura Kalbag br has some valid uses (e.g. poetry)

Laura Kalbag my current pet peeve is a h1, then a h2 directly below it which is not a header, just a paragraph the author wanted to make look bigger (or a subheader, like bootstrap does with the downright weird h1 -> small). I saw it once a while ago, now I’m seeing it everywhere :/
Yet another reason why HTML+microformats2 is the way forward for feeds on the web:
“Most people don’t know what HTML is and yet are able to consume pages without caring much.”

Julien Genestoux I’ll probably add one this afternoon — wrapped in a subscribe webaction, of course :)
Is the convention to have just one for the homepage (i.e. subscribe to “me”), or to have one wherever there is a feed (e.g. on my notes or articles pages?
Robin Andrews also, nice one for putting a #subToMe button on there! /cc Julien Genestoux
Robin Andrews you’ve gone from having no website to setting up your #indieweb identity, with POSSEing of posts out to social networks, in what — two months? Your brain has the right to be frazzled :) Well done, keep it up!
Kyle Weems:
I dislike having to deal with kludgy browsers too. But I also know my clients aren't interested in turning away many of their customers.
cssquirrel Zepto is nice for browser extensions, where the browser will always be modern and capable

sophiedennis wow, that thing’s seen some serious repair work, judging by all those cleats! Related but not nearly as shiny:
Robin Andrews sort of — I get a notification, and I see it. The tweet is still public (anyone can see if they go to twitter.com/robinmujician), but it only appears in people’s feeds if they follow both of us.
