    There is no reason that your personal website couldn't ping my personal website when you post an awesome new photo, and yet the entirety of some artists' work is held in an Instagram profile- these are choices we have made as developers, creators, and as a society
    Aaron Parecki
    There's definitely a growing worldwide community doing exactly this right now! #indieweb

    [I don't know what happened with your reply there? It might be leaking your location?]

    I realise that; I was replying to Phil with something that would work for his instructions (of which step 1 was creating your own Foursquare app).

    When I wrote a script to get all of a user’s checkins to make an ical feed I couldn’t find anything and ended up with the laborious instructions here https://github.com/philgyford/foursquare-feeds
    Aaron Parecki
    It definitely exists, I use it for copying my checkins going forward to my website. I just haven't done the full import of past checkins yet. https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/api/users/checkins

    I've reached the point that a day trip to the Bay Area from Portland is effectively the same as a "long commute to work". I'm also pretty sure this is still shorter than some peoples' commutes within the Bay Area.

    Me (in Australia): It took me a bit to get used to how all your power outlets have individual switches.

    My mate (I use the word mate now): You mean in America the power to all the outlets is on all the time?

    Me: yup

    My mate: Well, that's just fucking dangerous!
    Aaron Parecki
    also I'm imagining someone saying that in an australian accent and it is great

    Last weekend I was chatting with a friend who does forensic investigation of fires and it turns out electrical outlets are ACTUALLY REALLY DANGEROUS omg. Don't ever leave a device half plugged in it turns out it *will* start a fire.

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards 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. (detailed bio)

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.
