I was never a fan of the death penalty part of this episode, but the Joey Lucas introduction makes up for it.
Watched on Netflix
My issue in driving downtown is that the lights don't change with enough time for cars to make right (and or left) turns safely because pedestrians are always in the crosswalks. Typically only one (or two) cars can make turns on each light change and this causes tremendous gridlock. I don't care whether the law changes or not, we need to focus on allowing cars to turn without pedestrians being an issue.
I suspect there are places where the issue isn't enforced at all and some, with gridlock issues where it might be more directly policed. Leaving the law alone may be the better way to go and allow municipalities to police the issue as is necessary and safe for their neighborhoods. "Gotcha" enforcement for its own sake should be discouraged.
@cdevroe I'll agree with Jeremy that you don't need to syndicate content or even backfeed to be a part of the Indieweb. Particularly when you're already doing the primary tenets: own your domain, own your data, publish on your own site. (Ideally this is what everyone should be doing in conjunction with webmentions and then all the social networks would be superfluous.)
What I find most interesting about micro.blog is that it is truly that for most people: an actual micro.BLOG! No one seems to be using the same way that they use Twitter which has turned into something I can't quite describe as simply or directly anymore.
@Mercy That's alright. I'd love to hear your thoughts about what you try and which one you decide to settle on.
@Mercy They seem like completely different products to me.
Known is a CMS which allows you to own your data, then publish and syndicate it to multiple platforms (including uploading to Anchor). It doesn't have any audio creation or editing functionality. I have seen people using this and WordPress lately for small personal microcast "channels" which can be subscribed to or syndicated out to other social platforms.
Anchor appears to have some production and publishing tools as well as a distribution platform of sorts. It looks like the material you publish to your own station can be listened to for 24 hours, but then disappears unless you archive it to your account privately. Fortunately you can export your audio with a little bit of gymnastics, but it's not intuitive. This seems more like an ephemeral audio version of snapchat to me.
I'm curious what you're looking for in a minipodcast? I'm considering something shortly myself and have been looking at Anchor as well as Opinion2, Spreaker Studio, audioBoom, tryca.st, and even others as simple as using my LiveScribe Echo pen to record and then distribute via my Known or WordPress sites.
