• Day 58: Showing Image Uploads in IRC from the Slack Gateway #100DaysOfIndieWeb

  

  I consider my Slack/IRC gateway the best one out there, at least in terms of looking the most native to IRC users. We use this to connect the #indieweb IRC channel with our Slack team, so people can join the same rooms from either Slack or IRC.

This one probably won't make sense without the video, so if you're listening to this in podcast form, go check out my website where you can see the video version. The video here is straight out of a 1947 video called "The Private Life of a Cat", and I wanted to experiment with scoring the video without changing the video at all. The instrumentation and structure are loosely based off of the music from a short scene of a Star Trek episode.
