One of my goals for the upcoming secular year is to start playing more with iOS shortcuts. Specifically, I want to learn how to create them as well as how to install shortcuts by third parties.

There are a lot floating around for various Indieweb tasks and workflows and it would be really cool to automate some things while posting from my phone.

I expect this will have the side benefit of posting more from my phone.

I have photos in mind for this more than anything else, but would also like to start playing with alternative implementations of bookmarking services.

One of the best parts of doing a manual Facebook content migration is going through and remembering occasions which consequently sparked posts.

I’ve just come across one that I’m about to migrate that references my nepphew turning up my work phone as part of a weekend visit.

My nepphew is now on the edge of becoming a teenager. God, I feel old.

And I promise I won’t embarrass him later in life by pointing at these posts, because if he’s going to learn that the internet never forgets, it won’t be from his aunt.

I still can’t get Ditchbook to run properly on Windows, so I’ve started manually importing my content from Facebook.

I don’t really mind because it’s far from the only manual import I need to do, plus I have the time off to do it, and it’ll be a nice exercise in deciding what to keep and what not to keep.

I need to find something that’ll let me read the location data and such on Windows for the photo import parts, but it’ll be interesting to map locations to photos and other past content.

I’ve still got to start on the stuff from Goodreads and Foursquare/Swarm.

We did some grocery shopping and got some treats for this week and we’re planning to do more on Tuesday, along with getting some Chinese to eat while everyone else is eating traditional Christmas dinner on Wednesday.

And as usual we’re reading books. I’m up to one hundred and eighty for this year and we still have ten days left to go.
