This is awesome! I have on my list the goal of enabling webmentions from my Jekyll site. I currently have a backend server that handles Micropub and rebuilds my Jekyll instance on the fly when I send a slash command from my private slack channel. My backend is Node.js using express, so I’m excited to take a closer look at what you’ve done!

Testing a post with weather information

My newwwyear goal is to add the current weather based on my current location to all of my posts and to have better post context (likes, replies, bookmarks, etc) based on using my local copy of XRay to parse for information.

Awesome! I don’t know if I’ll be able to finish that feature in my Micropub endpoint soon enough to include it as part of my newwwyear goal, but it’s definitely up there on my list!

@colinwalker Hey, something I noticed is that your h-feed on your posts page doesn’t have author information for either the posts or the feed in general. This makes the feed show author as unknown when it is parsed by feed readers :) it should be as easy as putting an anchor tag with the class u-author, the href to your domain, and nothing in the content (so it doesn’t hyperlink any text). Let me know if you have any questions!

Jasmine’s Christmas Portrait -
Thanks for this great piece, Aaron! I really enjoyed reading it and it echoed a lot of my thoughts as I started implementing IndieWeb technologies into my site early this year.
It started that I had begun blogging and wanted to make sure my stuff was readable using microformats. Then I got interested in posting my microblog posts instead of twitter. Then I started tracking what I watched, what I ate, and the journey has just carried on.
The interesting thing I’ve noticed is two things: First, as you said, thoughts are much more helpful than in Twitter because you are more thoughtful about them. Second, it’s interesting how things that initially might interest you can change over time and having a website allows you to own that change in mind and adapt as you see fit!

My newest iteration of my iPhone dock. Left to Right: Things (task management), Indigenous (my work in progress IndieWeb app), Micro.blog (my primary social network engagement), my extra folder.Extra folder includes: Teacup (Micropub food logging), Quill (Micropub posting), Swarm (Checkins for my Website), shortcut to IndieWeb irc chat logs, Overland (location tracking), Prompt (SSH app to connect to my server. I use saved scripts in it to track what shows and movies I watch), Instapaper (saved articles to read), Twitter (rare reading to catch up on certain people I follow), Instagram (rarely post a photo that I want to share with friends on there) -

If you are unsure whether you should go see Star Wars: The Last Jedi in theaters, the answer is YES. Don’t question it again. Best Star Wars, maybe best movie, I have ever see . Hands down. Don’t miss it.

Further thoughts the future of owning my reading
As I’ve been doing my 100 Day of Reading Chapters challenge I’ve been thinking about my use of Goodreads and the various functions I use it for:

I find that I have a lot of issues with heart burn. I was reading a book today that said this:
Don’t drink and eat at the same time. Too much fluid mixed with your food distends the stomach, aggravating indigestion. So try to drink most of your fluids in between meals.
I don’t quite understand why mixing food and fluid makes your stomach swell (distend), but I have almost always heavily mixed my food and drink (almost always fizzy soda). I’m thinking I might need to experiment with this a bit and see if it changes much.

Thanks! 😁 I’m hoping to utilize other 100 Days projects for other things that I want to self dogfood. I’m thinking about doing 100 days of listening to audiobooks after I finish this one. I’ll have to figure out how to set it up though. Audiobook chapters and books all vary in length so it might have to be something like 30 minutes of listening or something like that. Luckily I have 100 days before I have to worry about that 😁

Just read an interesting article about some odd space debris. It discusses what is strange about this debris and if it could signal extra terrestrial life or not. Great read

Owning my Reading and 100 Days of Reading Chapters
One of my goals in 2018 is to own my reading data rather than using Goodreads for all of that information. This will allow me to track information the way I want rather than have to do it like Goodreads wants me to.

Making RSVP posts less painful
Following the IndieWeb mantra of “manual until it hurts”, all of my RSVP posts have been manually posted by hand to my website because it’s not something I did often and I hadn’t had the time to sit down and fix that.
