    I wish I could pop out chats in #Slack. I want all my active chats visible at once. It's really easy to lose a conversation when I have several going at once, or I'm waiting for a reply that might not happen for hours.

  • Day 58: Showing Image Uploads in IRC from the Slack Gateway #100DaysOfIndieWeb

    I consider my Slack/IRC gateway the best one out there, at least in terms of looking the most native to IRC users. We use this to connect the #indieweb IRC channel with our Slack team, so people can join the same rooms from either Slack or IRC. Often times people don't even realize that other users in IRC are actually connected via the Slack bridge! However, one glaring missing feature was that image uploads from Slack did not come through right. Today, I fixed that!

  • Day 47: Translating Slack :emoji: to Unicode #100DaysOfIndieWeb

    When someone types an emoji in Slack, it shows up in the API as a text description surrounded by colons. For example, 😻 is :heart_eyes_cat: when it comes through the API. Previously, the gateway would just send the text through to IRC, which doesn't look great for IRC users.

  • Day 46: Expanding the IRC/Slack Gateway to all IndieWeb Channels #100DaysOfIndieWeb

    For quite some time, we've been running my IRC/Slack gateway so that our main #indieweb IRC channel is also available in Slack. It's great because it allows people to use the nice mobile-friendly Slack client, while also not locking ourselves into a proprietary platform. The bridge is also used to allow people to join the chat from our web interface.

    @kevinmarks @LeaVerou @g33konaut @codepo8 I made a unified IRC/Slack/Web chat. It's hacky but works well. Part of it: https://github.com/aaronpk/Slack-IRC-Gateway

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.
