Jim and Tim sit down with John Stewart of the University of Oklahoma to discuss a recent solution he blogged about in which he's using Google Spreadsheets and APIs to drive a fast and scalable blogging infrastructure to support a course with 1,000 students.
This was a fun listen. Although I am reasonably committed to having my blogging on my own domain there is something appealing about this.
After going to @wp_glasgow‘s #WordPress #ContributorDay I’ve submitted my first Gutenberg issue insertion point vanishes pressing return in title field on iPad · Issue #9715

Going to pop along to the morning sessions.
Greg McVerry (jgregorymcverry.com)It takes me way too much time to teach students how to share a url from their @wordpress blog and to a specific @wordpress post. Need a little UI love me thinks as the failure rate on first time share is well above 50%.
I wonder if this is a WordPress problem or a problem with URLs in general? The way modern browsers hide information may not help?
Greg McVerry (jgregorymcverry.com)I think I am going to change my feed syndicating to @microdotblog to be a category. That way I can then control when I am cross-posting and can separate Twitter and Mastodon conversations.
FWIW that is what I do here. This re will not end up on micro.blog or Twitter I’ve not hooked up mastodon, where I saw your post, yet.
“Why has your reply copied the tweet @johnjohnston ? ”
I am using my blog to tweet/reply/like (sometimes) with #indieweb plugins & don’t always get it right;-) see status page blog for examples & https://indieweb.org for the principle.
“@athole Thats fantastic! I was a bookworm kid, so was hubby. However dont despair fellow parents if your child struggles with reading like mine and school is v.competitive. Learning to read is very varied right up to 11yrs! He loves books though and we read to him every day. Books❤️”
and we read to him every day
Say no more.
…the wood amongst the trees….. By deconstructing images into random regular elements it enables us to see the wood amongst the trees, the hidden details we may have missed, the texture of the paint, the stories within stories, the sub plots.
Theo is using a ds106 toy I made a while back. I don’t think I’d really though much about the use of cubomaina images.
Cubomania Gif! makes still jpgs too. I just changed it a little to keep the still images fullsized but resizing gifs to a more sensible 400 pixels wide.
The images in Theo’s post are a lot more illustrative of his ideas that the one here.
