Hi Doug,
I was wondering what was going on, the old feed was behaving strangely in my reader. The new one works really nicely in inoreader.
I do get different behaviour in different browsers. Firefox, where I’ve an RSS extension, shows the RSS; Safari offers to open the feed in NetNewsWire RSS reader; Chrome shows the webpage.
Alan’s comment about pinboard is interesting, I used to have a sort of tumble blog running off the rss from my delicious links.
Hi Doug,
looks like a great project, I’ve subscribed to the feed. Great set of links in this intro too, thanks.
Learning does not work for me like that either Doug, serendipity, excitement, rabbit holes & fascination are usually the drivers for me.
something kicks in
& then I am lost in it. I often believe this will change lots of things and emerge blinking to reality.
Was an interesting read I don’t mind being out in the cold so much, but the combination of cold & wet we get here especially with added wind can be more unpleasant.
Hi Doug,
Like Adam, I welcome the random and change is always good. Been enjoying the Open Thinkering of late too.
after reading about privacy. The post is fascinating and a useful reminder. On the Jetpack front I’ve got Jetpack installed but the “Publicize connections” & “Sharing buttons” turned off. I don’t see any traffic going to Facebook using two of the tool’s that Doug suggests. Perhaps Jetpack is OK? Or I don’t really know how to use the tools.
A decade since I left teaching and it seems to have gone from free sharing of openly-licensed resources to edu-influencers getting people to like and retweet for resources
A lot to unpack in this. I was naively optimistic about open sharing (& about knowledge of copyright & licenses spreading).
Doug: Would be interested in you sharing yours, too John
Hi Doug,
My Firefox use is pretty light, so this is not too exciting. I mostly use Safari.
The only ones I am particularly interested in at the moment are the RSS ones, Fraidycat and Save Tiddlers.
Although I’ve got my main TiddlyWiki experiment running on a Raspberry pi using node (look at me!) and usually use Waterfox as the editor I am interested in other ways of using it.
Interestingly I have even fewer extensions in Safari. This is partially due to the way apple controls the extensions you can use and partially due to my preference for klunky homemade things, either JavaScript bookmarklets or AppleScripts. This makes it hard for me to abandon Safari. For a while Chrome was my secondary, now Firefox & Waterfox, I think I might go back to vanilla FF as my number 2 now the RSS works:-) Especially as containers might be useful…
Hi Doug,
That was interesting, thanks.
I’d moved to Waterfox for my secondary browser when Firefox lost the display of RSS,
I’ve now added the RSSPreview add-on. Glad to get a reminder about Fraidycat too.
