Enjoyed tonight’s drive home listen: Tantek Çelik – The once and future IndieWeb on Huffduffer ripped from YouTube by huffduff-video
I’ve posted the microblog functions I am current using on my blog here, in case they are of use or mistakes can be pointed out.
Lopsided: I’ve had an iPhone in my left hand trouser pocket for years now, my 3rd party screen repair failed yesterday evening and it is now in the Apple Store until I can pick it up tonight, quite a strange sensation.
Loose Learners Episode 3
Took me a while to publish this, Mariana and I talking about twitter mostly musing on Dean Shareski’s Sharing, Bragging, Selling and Self Promoting. The Show notes Mariana put together are brilliant.
Really enjoying hearing about the history of the archive on Internet Archive founder Brewster Kahle on Recode Decode loveclinks to books and libraries.
It seems to have worked, thanks to a tip from @ciudadanob I’ve rearranged my blog. Status posts are now kept off the home page. Status posts, although they have titles in WordPress do not have in RSS. So the content of the posts flows through to micro.blog.
New micro.blog plan, remove titles from status posts, status posts not on home page. Any post, status or not, with category of Micro will go to micro.blog, status without title, longer posts as link. Of course I’ve got to work out how to filter status posts from home and micro RSS feed.
Microblogging adventures pt 2: Alfred post to WordPress for micro.blog
I’ve been beta testing micro.blog. There is a new page here for status type posts, these get sent to micro.blog/johnjohnston and to twitter.
This has renewed my interest in finding different ways to post to the blog especially for short posts that would have previously gone straight to twitter.
I seem to have posting the selected text to my blog (and then to micro.blog) sorted via Alfred and AppleScript. It has taken me a while to figure out how to do categories with the xml-rpc and AppleScript. I think there are a fair number of possibilities with this sort of thing.
