Dropping Twitter Support on IndieAuth.com
I've made the difficult decision to drop support for Twitter authentication on IndieAuth.com. Some time last week, Twitter rolled out a change to the website which broke how IndieAuth.com verifies that a website and Twitter account belong to the same person.continue reading... -
New Twitter account got locked within a minute. I used to be able to use an existing number to verify new accounts, but not anymore!

Twitter has no idea how old I am, but got my interests down pretty well. The list of advertisers targeting me is pretty fun to browse through too.

Day 21: Twitter Support for XRay #100DaysOfIndieWeb
Continuing yesterday's work, today I added support for parsing Twitter URLs to XRay.There were a couple tricks to make this work. I wanted to make sure that Tweets are always expanded to include the most data possible, and also wanted to avoid needing to make a bunch of HTTP requests. Scraping from the twitter.com website wasn't an option, since some of the data isn't available or would require additional HTTP calls to fetch. (For example I would have to fetch every t.co URL to expand them.) So I set to work using the Twitter API to fetch the tweets.continue reading... -
Thoughts on the Hashbang (www.adequatelygood.com)"In a perfect world, we would have been able to use the original URL structure with the hashes for our application, and served both the site and the app simultaneously. This would be the absolute best thing for users of all kinds, and this debate would not be happening."

This entire article is, essentially, saying that Twitter-the-concept is a great thing, but Twitter… (medium.com)"Let’s pretend that instead of building a single company, a group of engineers got together and built an ecosystem. Like email, but taking in the lessons we’ve learnt, the new communication modes we’ve stumbled across, in the past decades. Multiple servers and services compete and coordinate in equal measure, advancing the whole and being pushed to their limits. Some servers compete on individual privacy, others compete by exchanging privacy for enriched services. Maybe some services even have Moments, who knows. Space for everyone."
