At least 30 years ago I saw a book in a secondhand shop, in Bank Street, beautifully produced, a translation of a French poet who had lived in Japan.
Some haiku like poems & some one word ones. I can’t recall any but I remember placement on the page was important.
I couldn’t afford the book.

I hate to say this because I adore my fellow tweeps, but some of the least effective content on here right now are auto-posted tweets. 
They’re visually off-putting, and the content sometimes doesn’t translate well for this environment. 
If you’re going to cross-post to Twitter and Mastodon, perhaps consider doing so manually and adjusting accordingly. 
(Said with love :twitter:)

I POSSE and cross post a fair bit, but I often just do it manually. Helps with both formatting & alt-text on images. But this like I am relying on brid.gy. It works well for Twitter, so this is a mastodon test.

Replied to you gotta love this guy! (simply.)
My buddy John is now back to school as a teacher in Scotland. His summer redux includes a wonderful video collage of summer photos

Thanks for the love Joe,
Just when I think I’ll get rid of the sidebar. They do seem to have gone out of fashion. I guess I’ll keep mine till they come back in😉
Ds106, was/is a wonderful course on ‘digital storytelling’ that has run in several universities but allows anyone to join in. A source of a lot of fun and a lot of learning about owning your own space.
The video is in the style of the now disappeared online service pummelvision. After it went I wrote a script to replicate it.

Replied to Successful Conversion from WordPress to ClassicPress by Brad Brad (cyberzettel.com)
New site.  Started with a fresh WordPress install. Got WP site set up. Installed Indieweb plugins and a few others.  Avoided using WordPress owned plugins like Jetpack and Akismet.  Found alternatives. Wrote some posts. Rediscovered ClassicPress.  Decided this was the best time to try ClassicPre...

Hi Brad,
This is very interesting. Good news about IndieWeb plug-ins. Two concerns, has ClassicPress the legs for a long run and will plug-ins, like the IndieWeb ones keep working on ClassicPress if they evolve with WordPress?
