@JoyfulAbode My solution is pretty manual right now, but works for me. @benwerd has a much more elegant system!

@JoyfulAbode Kind of, it's more like running your own IFTTT server. For example you can see all my "tweets" on my own site here: http://aaronparecki.com/replies and here: http://aaronparecki.com/notes The version on Twitter is just a copy. It also lets me write longer notes like this one!

@JoyfulAbode Yeah I think that's a great description of Instagram! I know what you mean about wanting to keep in touch with the people there though. That's why a lot of us are building tools to help with that: http://indiewebcamp.com/POSSE, although I doubt we'll ever be able to push our own photos to Instagram.

@JoyfulAbode I doubt it, Instagram is pretty strict about photos only coming from their app. The new Flickr app is pretty good though, you should give it a try!

@JoyfulAbode Glad you like it! It won't update on its own but if you click again it will import the new ones!

@chmod777self.com Yea that's exactly my point, not everybody a) uses apache and b) can change settings on their web server (shared hosting environments, github pages, etc)

@BarnabyWalters How else would you pronounce them!

@snarfed_org Yeah, we do keep http://indiewebcamp.com/events up to date very well, but the page could use a bit of cleanup in terms of presentation

@AlaskaAir yeah I think I'm going to do OAK from now on. Wish I could have re-booked that flight to leave earlier tonight from OAK!

@AlaskaAir My flight *to* SFO was 2 hours delayed too. I know it's out of your control but I just want to go home!

Thanks for the suggestion! It would be cool to use the LINK verb.

The problem is that it's way less likely to actually get adoption using the LINK verb. The discovery step adds an opportunity to add a layer of indirection, which lets us separate the server that handles the webmention. While discovery is an extra step, but at the same time it provides a lot of benefits. For example, it wouldn't be possible to have a static HTML site handle the HTTP LINK request, whereas it could delegate to a webmention service by using the link tag. Additionally, some hosting environments may not provide a way to handle the LINK request where a normal POST would work instead.

Because of the benefits and flexibility the discovery step adds, we need to stick with it and can't use the LINK verb as cool as that would be.

@annbass @t Check out http://shwr.me - great HTML presentation framework, not too hard to use and looks great too! #osfw3c

@lidingpku Yes, @tantek captured it here: http://tantek.com/2013/219/t19/osfw3c-contrast-microformats2-cc0-owfa-ogp-schema #osfw3c

Why would I have any interest in schema.org if all I can do is publish my data for Google? #osfw3c

@t So really what this means is I am not allowed to parse schema.org data from others sites? Only Google is allowed to? #osfw3c

@benwerd Agreed for un-related content, but the use cases described in HTTP 2.0 push seem reasonable: http://www.igvita.com/2013/06/12/innovating-with-http-2.0-server-push/ #osfw3c

@lehawes and some are using both! http://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2013-08-07/line/1375904709 #osfw3c

@lidingpku Yeah, that's been bugging me for a while. I changed the format that shows up in the channel just now.

@lidingpku Yep! We're doing that with the #osfw3c tweets right now, feel free to join #indiewebcamp on irc.freenode.net! IRC logs available at http://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2013-08-07

@geekcode huh? no, it was a weird glitch in Delta's system. It forgot to actually issue me a ticket.
