    Yeh, that (I have no idea how this stuff works thanks aaron, as always)
    Aaron Parecki
    It'd be great if you could drop a Twitter link into someone's webmention form, but that'll take me a while to figure out. In the mean time if that person is using https://brid.gy it'll work without anyone doing any manual work.

    Pardon me for asking this Andy, but why was this tweet not added to the website and instead “deleted” as a web mention? Genuinely curious and not trying to step on any toes here.

    Aaron Parecki
    Sorry, that was my fault! The error should have said that there was no link found, and that's because Twitter URLs can't be used when webmention.io is handling the request. I just fixed webmention.io tho!

    Thinking of my @indiewebcamp friends over in #Brighton at the moment. I so wish I could be with you, @t @adactio @aaronpk @martijnvdven @HeNeArXn @calum_ryan @RosemaryOrchard & others — alas, too many things to keep a grip on these days. Have fun y'all, I'll try to catch up soon!
    Aaron Parecki
    We miss you too!

    The Mezcal Margarita is actually decent (not made from a mix), but wow I forgot how expensive SFO is!

    Nah it’s not artificial. They just control everything. So if they don’t like it they won’t share it.
    Aaron Parecki
    well in any case I'm glad you're sharing your results experimenting with TikTok so the rest of us old people don't have to 😂

    Posted a video on TikTok. In the video I put text “watch full video on YouTube”.

    The video got ZERO views in an hour.

    Reposted it without that text... it’s blowing up.
    Aaron Parecki
    Like *literally* zero? I'm beginning to suspect TikTok might be artificially inflating (or apparently now also deflating) view numbers like Facebook used to...

    Takes too many steps to fiddle with a phone app! Unlocking the phone, launching the app, etc. Much easier to have a physical button ready to be pressed with a moment's notice.

    A thing I started doing: instead of recording my full workshops, I set a voice memo recorder on the podium, and when someone has a question, I press record, repeat the question, and then answer it. Now my recorder is full of Q&A that I can incorporate back into the presentation!
    Aaron Parecki
    Previously I had been recording everything, but in reality I'm never going to go back and listen through a two-hour recording. So this way I will actually listen to the recordings because there's only a few minutes worth!

    Never enter your password into a search engine.
    Aaron Parecki
    ‪It was poorly worded and out of context, but they clarified later you should only search your password if you know it's been leaked already. That said, most of the time the password dumps are going to be hashes of passwords, so this step still isn't a good idea.‬

    In summary: the standards already exist, I think what is missing is mechanism for most people to utilize those standards and a sustainable business model to support that mechanism.
    Aaron Parecki
    Yep! I would love to see more people build out apps that make it easy for people to find and RSVP to events! It's a huge problem space and no single project will cover all use cases anyway. See also: https://indieweb.org/plurality

    not yet, but I'm not sure why it would be a problem? WebMentions just sends a URL to where the other is being mentioned, it's up to the reciever to expect a resource with http://schema.org metadata.
    Aaron Parecki
    Totally! But check out what we've done with Webmention and Microformats for the last few years: https://2019.indieweb.org/summit#indie-rsvps All these RSVPs are via Webmention Microformats. Click thru the permalinks to see the original posts!

    It could be a good time for someone to create an open standard for meetups. Sort of like RSS for blogs and podcasts.
    Aaron Parecki
    There's plenty of prior art here, and lots of progress has already been made. what we need is business models that support this kind of thing. Thankfully Meetup is making this really obvious now.

    hmm this is new... looks like Instagram must have changed how they're doing media URLs. Right now OYG caches aggressively to avoid hitting IG too much, but i'll have to make a reset button for this.

    Aaron Parecki
    With the recent change I deployed to import a single photo by its Instagram URL, that will re-fetch the data from Instagram each time and should clear this up. So you can paste this image's URL in the import field and it should update to have the new photo URL.
