• Day 8: Pinned Posts #100DaysOfIndieWeb

  I've never really been a fan of using pinned posts on my Twitter profile, so I didn't expect this would be something I wanted on my own website. On my own home page I can just write whatever I want above my posts, so I don't really need "pinned posts" there either. However I just found a use for pinned posts, but not on my home page!I've been sharing the link to my 100 days tags with people as a way to share the content quickly. I wanted to be able to have a little intro post above the list of posts, and I realized that "pinned posts" matched the pattern of what I wanted pretty nicely! So now, on tag and channel pages on my site, I can mark a post as "pinned" and it will always show up on top! The first post I've pinned is on my #100DaysOfIndieWeb tag page.

  @indiescripter hm, what do you mean "silo-centric"? We often replicate silo UX on our own sites, and we syndicate to silos to reach audiences that are there, but ultimately it's about owning your identity and data. If you want to see a variety of things I'm working on, check out my "100 days" project where I work on something IndieWeb for 100 days: https://aaronparecki.com/tag/100daysofindieweb You'll find plenty of non-silo things there!

• 100 Days of Music

  100 Days of Music is a project to write a short 30-90 second song every day for 100 days. My goal is to create something that's "finished" enough to be able to use it as a podcast or video intro song. It doesn't have to be long, but has to sound decent.

  Day 8. Today's song is an experiment in not using any percussion and trying to create the sense of rhythm other ways. A lot of this was inspired by one of @adamsinger's Creative Commons tracks. I wanted to see what it would take to create something with a similar feel. There's also a hint of Royksopp in here. #100daysofmusic #100daysproject #the100dayproject
