Has my Twitter POSSE stopped working?

 

I've now got the ability to create status updates in @WithKnown and have them feed into micro.blog! Hooray @manton for the RSS feed fix!

 

Congratulations @t on 100 Days of Positive Posts! Thanks for making the world kinder and richer!

 

Mobile UI suggestion: Chat bubble or menu option to create post from home screen · Issue #24 · microdotblog/issues https://github.com/microdotblog/issues/issues/24

The Timeline, Mentions, and Favorites all have a "chat" icon in the upper right to allow one to create a status update. Why not also include this on the main homescreen (or a "Create Post" button just above Timeline) so there's one less step to posting? It also makes it easier for new users to figure out how to post.

 

Internet Archive moves toward ignoring Robots.txt for more commonsensical archival procedure.

Replied to a post on github.com :

Perhaps putting these fields and the phone number onto the main account page would be better UI? It will also bring forward the statement about IndieAuth (I like the description by the way), which will help to make other posting interfaces and applications more apparent--particularly in the early Beta days when they're so limited.

Additionally adding a field for Instagram (wrapped with rel-me) will also let users potentially use https://ownyourgram.com/

Similarly a swarm/foursquare field for aaronpk's ownyourswarm would be useful, though he may have to do some tweaking to get it to work with micro.blog as it's relatively new.

Other than that I think I mentioned most of the other commonly used IndieAuth data pieces above.

huffduffer and Not Huffduffer http://johnjohnston.info/blog/huffduffer-and-not-huffduffer

John describes an early experience with Huffduffer and then goes on to describe how he rolled his own version of something similar. While having your own tools is great, it does make it somewhat difficult to do the social sharing portion if you don't build that into the picture. I wish Jeremy Keith had been able to help him out as I'd love to have an idea of what John is regularly listening to and enjoying.

 

Hilarious gRegor!
