Earlier this year, @tantek posted Twelve Blog Post Writing Tips, from which I got a great deal of inspiration.

The Indie Web

This morning, @tommorris struke a nerve with the Hackernews community with his post Dear "API providers," I don't want a relationship.

IndieAuth is a service that implements RelMeAuth, originally proposed by Tantek Çelik in February 2010. The original algorithm was described in a short text update on Tantek's website.

Tantek later launched a RelMeAuth prototype on his domain, which you can try out at tantek.com/relmeauth.
