I've been a web developer since 1999, and I've been on the indieweb since 2015. This site is a commonplace book for all my online activity and will eventually be a home for archives of all of my online content.

OK, so it posts, but not with the text of the post. More tweaking is necessary.

Playing with quill today. Let’s see if I can publish a status post to my personal side, and then, get it to syndicate to Twitter and Facebook, all from my phone.

Caught wind of WordPressers federating comments via Twitter and of course I had to join in. Not impressed with Twitter’s character limit, or its new threading feature, and don’t like Facebook either. Looking forward to the day when participating on the indieweb becomes as easy as participating in silos.

So I’m updating a bunch of WordPress installs because WordPress 4.9, and I found that the admin menu now uses aria-current to let you know where you are in the interface. Nice accessibility easter egg. Time to go update the WordPress with a Screen Reader posts again.

Today has been a long, but productive, day. So much yawn. Need more coffee.

Adding myself to the #indieweb wiki this morning. User page created and now linked on the WordPress examples page. Not sure if we have two hundred and eighty character support for posting to Twitter using Bridgy yet, but I don’t care because Twitter can take its arbitrary character limit and shove it. Later after work, I’ll work on my personal blogroll, to which I’m going to be adding links to some Facebook friends’ profiles, because Facebook can take its news feed algorithum and shove that too. Not logging in every day just to retrain the damn thing when I can link to a profile somewhere else, see what someone’s up to, and comment while logged into Facebook, and then when I’m done close the window. Oh and WordPress hit twenty-nine percent market share on Saturday.

Troubleshooting why I’m not receiving email for my GSuite account is exactly what I wanted to spend Tuesday doing.

Less than an hour until I sign off of everything for the first two days of Sukkut and then Shabbat. Sukkot intro: http://www.chabad.org/holidays/JewishNewYear/template_cdo/aid/4784/jewish/What-Is-Sukkot.htm

If you’re frying an egg to the point where it’s stable enough to be a taco shell, I’m here to tell you that you’re doing it wrong.

I just learned that Meet The Blind Month is totally real and I want to swear profusely, followed by hurling all over the place.

When I become supreme ruler of the universe, I’m banning sliders from websites.

Both Facebook and Twitter need a “get over yourself” reaction button.

“Disrespecting the country” is the right’s version of Godwin’s Law.

I think it’s time for Google to make website accessibility a ranking signal for search engine optimization purposes.
