  • I'm Still Here!

    May 19, 2017

    I just added my favorite new relatively unimportant feature to my website!

    I added my Swarm checkins to my website a few weeks ago, which has been super fun. One thing I always thought was missing from Swarm was knowing whether a friend was still at a venue they checked in to. Since I have checkins on my own website, I can do that now!

    So now, when you're viewing a checkin on my site, if I am still at that location, you will see a pulsing blue dot next to the venue name!

    This works because my phone always tracks my GPS location and reports it to my website already. My website compares my last location with the last checkin, and if I'm still nearby, will show the dot!

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Senior Security Architect at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming and dabble in product design.

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
