1. Stuart Langridge: @adactio ooh, that's cool. Why not just use pingback? I assume the answer is "XML-RPC, man, why", for which I apologise :)

    @sil @adactio fwiw, pingback was extremely valuable prior art for webmention, the first indieweb comment implementation used pingbacks, and some indieweb sites (my own included) support comments using pingback as the notification transport, often using webmention.io as a proxy

    @tgb nice article — you absolutely are a creator! You’ve set up your own site, made it your online identity with rel-me, set up POSSE and indieweb comments. Glad to know that could help you, looking forward to seeing what you make next! See you at an indiewebcamp soon, hopefully :)

  3. I really think that’s part of the fun of — there’s no in-game pedagogy so you have to figure out what to do by trial, error, internet research, reading wiki/forum pages. It’s an interesting sort of game experience, very messy with unclear boundaries. Fun!

  4. bruce lawson: .. correction; Opera 21 shows domain + path by default, hides protocol and query strings. (On feedback, we added setting to show full URL).

    @brucel that sounds like a good balance between informing the user and visual noise — should also help discourage the use of query string parameters in permalink design too, hopefully.

  5. Ben Werdmüller: At this point in my career I'm prepared to recommend that we all standardize on ASCII art and forget about "videos" and "multimedia".

    @benwerd videos are such noisy things, whilst ASCII art has a certain serenity about it. But lack of video does mean no more Clangers :'(

    …unless…

    VCR TIME!

  6. Andy Robinson: @BarnabyWalters Yeah, there is that. But really, I think it should just cut me some slack :-)

    .@andycayenne oh I agree — but whenever I think about how stupid computers are, only doing exactly what we tell them, I think about how much worse it would be if they tried to guess what we really meant ;)
