#Webmention

• Sending your First Webmention from Scratch

  

  Webmention is one of the fundamental indieweb building blocks. It enables rich interactions between websites, like posting a comment or favorite on one site from another site. This post will walk you through the simplest way to get started sending webmentions to other sites so that you can use your own site to join the conversations happening on the Indie Web.

• Day 75: Improvements to the Webmention Wiki Page #100DaysOfIndieWeb

  I've been feeling like the Webmention page on the IndieWeb wiki doesn't do a very good job of explaining what Webmention does for users, and jumps too quickly into spec details. I would like to be able to direct people at this page when I am talking to them online about what Webmention can do, which often means what I am trying to show them is how Webmention can be used to display comments and other interactions on a website. Today I started to make some incremental improvements.

  are there any mainstream uses of it in the wild?
  

  @johnonolan @stefanbc https://withknown.com has built-in support, and http://micro.blog likely will as well. Lots of other small sites too

  super open to this idea - I just have no idea what it would look like.
  

  @johnonolan @stefanbc @teabass I have a pretty good idea! https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/ All the comments on my site are received via Webmention!

• Day 41: Easier Posting to IndieNews #100DaysOfIndieWeb

  

  Following up on yesterday's update of adding a Webmention form on IndieNews' Webmention endpoint, today I finished building out the UI for submitting to IndieNews from a browser.Now the "Submit" link includes a form where you can paste in your post's URL, in case your website doesn't send Webmentions automatically.

• My reply to Micro.blog Project Surges Past $65K on Kickstarter, Gains Backing from DreamHost (boffosocko.com)

  "Webmention works much like @mention on Twitter, Medium, Facebook, and others, but is platform independent, which means you can use it to ping any website on the internet that supports it. Imagine if you could reply to someone on Twitter from your WordPress site? Or if you could use Facebook to reply to a post on Medium?"

• Day 38: New Sneaky Redirect Test for webmention.rocks #100DaysOfIndieWeb

  This was a tricky one, spawned from when sebsel failed to discover the Webmention endpoint for one of Zegnat's posts. In that case, the Webmention endpoint was a relative URL and sebsel was sending a Webmention to a URL that was also an HTTP redirect.The new test, webmention.rocks #23, instructs you to send a Webmention to a URL that is a redirect, and that page advertises a relative URL endpoint. You'll need to make sure that the URL you pass to your relative URL resolver is the final URL after following the redirect, rather than the one you start with.So give it a shot! Test if your relative URL resolution code works properly!

• Day 34: New test for webmention.rocks #100DaysOfIndieWeb

  Thanks to @Zegnat and @sebsel for finding some new new edges case in Webmention discovery that deserve new tests!The new test, #22, advertises its Webmention endpoint with a URL that is relative to the page (e.g. <link rel="webmention" href="22/webmention">). The existing relative URL tests were absolute paths (e.g. <link rel="webmention" href="/test/22/webmention">).
