Collecting

1. Little Signals: A series of interaction experiments

2. Keisuke Oka’s Arimaston Building in Tokyo, Made Entirely by Hand

   An awe-inspiring entirely hand-crafted concrete building in Tokyo, Japan. It reminds me of a physical manifestation of the IndieWeb. More of this in every aspect of life please!

3. A reminder.

   A reminder that your community, with all of it's shades and beliefs, is the most important thing to focus on right now. Meet with people face to face and talk to them, whether you are part of their culture or not. That’s why I’m so glad to be spending this evening with Ladies That UX Brighton @LadiesthatUX_Br@hci.social 🏳️‍🌈💜

4. The state of this browser!

   My system memory is full thanks to having ~100 browser tabs open. Thinking about creating a collection on my website to dump them all and calling it The state of this browser!

9. rolltime - A New HOPE (2022): ActivityPub Four Years Later: The Good, the Bad, and the Fedi

   This talk by rolltime helped me to understand the concepts and history of the Fediverse how it has been implemented and what make it better than a straight-up Xitter replacement. They have some interesting thoughts and provocations for creating more curated and valued engagements.

10. Indiekit is up!

    I finally found some time to get @paulrobertlloyd’s Indiekit – https://getindiekit.com/ – up and running on my own domain. Paul’s host recommendation of railway.app was excellent and I can’t recommend it enough, especially if you’re a n00b like me. Now back to the docs!
