Day 21: Twitter Support for XRay #100DaysOfIndieWeb

Continuing yesterday's work, today I added support for parsing Twitter URLs to XRay.There were a couple tricks to make this work. I wanted to make sure that Tweets are always expanded to include the most data possible, and also wanted to avoid needing to make a bunch of HTTP requests. Scraping from the twitter.com website wasn't an option, since some of the data isn't available or would require additional HTTP calls to fetch. (For example I would have to fetch every t.co URL to expand them.) So I set to work using the Twitter API to fetch the tweets.

Anyone experimented with using webmention to capture pings from, e.g. data journalism, back to open datasets? https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/

@ldodds Not sure if this is quite what you mean, but worth a read: http://lombardpress.org/2016/04/16/iiif-webmentions/

Day 20 - Vieux Carré

Day 20. This was the first time I started and finished a song in a bar! I wrote this between my dentist appointment and seeing a movie downtown. The Vieux Carré is a $5 on-tap cocktail at Imperial in Downtown Portland. I will admit it was a bit of a challenge working on this with other music playing in the bar, but my noise cancelling headphones helped a lot.

Almost none, but still some; might selfhost =) Like the distributed concept, would like to see more usage! https://lwn.net/Articles/708151/

@joelpurra The OpenID team has deprecated OpenID 1 and is now pursuing OpenID Connect which is actually built on OAuth 2.0 as well.

@joelpurra I like the concept too! My goal with #indieauth is to use domains as identities (like OpenID) but using OAuth 2.0 techniques.

Will consider #indieauth, but negatively angled "why not #openid" info had (has) me thinking otherwise https://indieweb.org/OpenID

@joelpurra There also seem to be almost no OpenID providers left except indieauth.com, since myopenid shut down.

@joelpurra Well I would never suggest anyone use OpenID 1 for anything new, but I can see how that's confusing. Will see if I can rephrase.
