A Brief Intro to My Website Architecture
This is a description of all the pieces and tools that I use to post to my website and handle comments and responses. Many of the pieces are open source and/or based on open protocols that you can implement yourself.WritingI write posts using an app called Quill. It's an open source application that I wrote. I run a hosted version at quill.p3k.io, and you can run it on your own server if you want as well. Quill provides an interface for posting longer blog posts with embedded images like this, as well as short text notes, and a handful of other kinds of posts like bookmarks.Quill doesn't actually store any posts itself. It is just an interface for writing posts.When I click the "post" button in Quill, it sends a Micropub request to my own website, which then creates the post and displays it on my website. Micropub is an API standard for creating short notes and posts, and it supports photos and videos too!You can start using Quill if your website supports Micropub. There are some Micropub plugins for various CMSs, and it's also not too hard to write an endpoint yourself if you're into that sort of thing.Posting to Twitter/FacebookI never write posts directly on Twitter or Facebook. Instead, I write a post in Quill, and then check the boxes for where I want to syndicate the post.continue reading... -

@Drift @gluiapp Annotate is great! Could you add Micropub support so I can share screenshots directly to my website? https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/

@aaronpk once the RFC is passed, we’ll gladly look into it.
@DropshareForMac fyi Micropub is now a Candidate Recommendation! https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/ -
Automatically uploading screenshots to a Micropub Media Endpoint
I often want to share screenshots in text chat from my computer, and I don't like sharing Dropbox links since they load a huge HTML+JS app just to show an image.Since I already have a Micropub Media Endpoint that apps like Quill use to upload photos, I thought that would be a good place to also share screenshots from. The Media Endpoint is a simple HTTP API. It accepts a file upload, and returns the URL to the file in the Location header.OSX has what's called "Folder Actions" where the system will trigger a script to run any time a file is added to a folder. I created an Automator script that will upload the newly added file to the media endpoint, and copy the resulting URL onto the clipboard.continue reading... -

A lot of open infrastructure that made social media work has disappeared. Can it be rebuilt? https://medium.com/@anildash/the-lost-infrastructure-of-social-media-d2b95662ccd3
@anildash Working on it:
Responses -> https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/
API -> https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/ -
Uploading Videos (developers.facebook.com)"In Graph API v2.3 we introduce a resumable upload protocol. You can now upload videos as chunks, handle errors and resume the upload of the remaining chunks."

@DrifttHQ Any chance you can add support for uploading via Micropub, or even just via HTTP? https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/

Hi all, here's the GitHub issue where I'm tracking the status of the syntax to use for Micropub updates/deletes. I'd appreciate any feedback people have on this.
https://github.com/aaronpk/Micropub/issues/22
There's a couple other issues that I opened based on my implementation experience getting myfreeweb's Micropub client (which currently supports edits) to work with my own server. Feedback is welcome on those as well.

Micropub Spec Updates
Since publishing the latest W3C draft of Micropub on March 1, there have been a few minor updates based on feedback from people who have implemented it.Simpler update syntaxThe update syntax had an extra nesting that was not necessary. The syntax changed from:replace[properties][content]=Hello+Moonto replace[content]=Hello+MoonMoving a postIf the update operation caused the post to be moved to a new URL (such as when the URL scheme is based off of the post's date, or has a custom slug that is editable), the Micropub client needs a way to know the new URL of the post.The Update Response section now includes HTTP 201 as a possible response, along with:If the update operation caused the URL of the post to change, the server must respond with HTTP 201 and include the new URL in the HTTP Location headerMore InformationYou can read the latest editor's draft of the spec here: http://micropub.net/draft/ as well as see the change log. The git commit history shows the full detailed changes.Thanks to Greg for providing feedback on his Micropub implementation.As always, feedback from implementation experience is appreciated! Feel free to file an issue, or join the #indiewebcamp chat!continue reading... -

@DropshareForMac I'm loving Dropshare! Could you add https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/ support so I can easily upload to my website? Basically a file upload in a form with an access token.
