@maxticket good question. Google might favor them, but I've become a fan of a few of the SEO plugins for WordPress. It's helped traffic too.

I'm having trouble justifying learning / dealing with the particular usage of those tags - given they seem to have no impact in any browser or any other consumer

tantek: You've sat on these standards groups. When do they say...no one adopted our standard...?

#
tantek
GWG - very rarely do they say "no one adopted **our** standard" - quite the opposite, creators of standards are nearly always extremely defensive (emotional attachment) about **their** standard.
#
GWG
I just think about the issue regularly.
#
GWG
Why people persist with an idea long after it has not worked out the way anyone wanted to
#
tantek
However, since the collossal failure of XML to replace HTML, it has become more acceptable for someone e.g. in W3C to say "no one adopted (or bothers with) *this* standard" about some other W3C standard
#
tantek
GWG, emotional attachment, and fear of admitting failure
#
tantek
most such irrational persistence can be ascribed to a source of fear of some sort
#
tantek
the irony is that failure to admit failure is an even *bigger* failure
#
tantek
whereas OTOH admitting failure *as fast as possible* allows one to correct for it and adapt as quickly as possible
#
tantek
short term emotional reaction (attachment, fear) seems to override long term desire for success
#
tantek
the hard part is figuring out rationally what amount of time is "as fast as possible" as sometimes (often) it takes *years* to gather adoption/reaction data to a standard
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: also classifying what counts as "failure to adopt"
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: agreed, that is challenging as well
#
KartikPrabhu
I have seen arguments that microformats is antiquated since "most people" have not adopted it and its proliferation is only due to default use in Wordpress themes
#
GWG
KartikPrabhu: That is why default incorporation is often helpful in adoption
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: there is also the 2 year amnesia effect when it comes to web tech
#
KartikPrabhu
GWG: yes, but it is also seen as an argument against adoption
#
tantek
anything > 2 years old is treated as antiquated as best, or forgotten completely
#
KartikPrabhu
I think the work here on using microformats to do things like response-context and comment display has not yet gotten "out there"
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: to be fair, there were several key issues with classic microformats that took us a while to gather data on to understand the depth/nature of, and incorporate solutions into microformats2
#
KartikPrabhu
true. and in that sense mf2 has limited adoption so far
#
tantek
the biggest problem was not being real world use-case driven *enough*
#
KartikPrabhu
with people moving on to "linked data" and JSON and all that
#
tantek
which we are fixing with microformats2, and driving it by *requiring* real world use-cases *before* adding *anything* (properties or new formats)
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: no one is "moving on" to "linked data" - except from RDF/RDFa
#
KartikPrabhu
though those have pretty significant drawbacks IMO as frequently discussed here particulary the side-files anti-pattern
#
tantek
it's the same crowd, different triples-related buzzword. a rebranding at best.
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: yes. I meant the "dev" circles
#
tantek
they're not even "dev" circles - they're academic theory circles and some government
#
KartikPrabhu
or as you might put it "web academics"
#
tantek
people have largely moved on from XML to JSON though
#
KartikPrabhu
which might be an "improvement" but too little too late I feel
#
tantek
and not realizing that they're making all the same assumptions / statements about JSON being "it" for APIs etc. the way they were about XML being "it"
#
KartikPrabhu
yup. without the APIs doing anything visible/concrete
#
tantek
thus JSON is simply the dev-machine-syntax of this decade, while XML was of the previous decade
#
KartikPrabhu
just collecting data for collecting sake
#
tantek
few people have the perspective to see fashion trends that are 10 years long
#
tantek
btw - re: before about bad hentrys - aaronpk, kylewm I didn't see any objections to *not* implying properties when doing backcompat parsing of microformats

now I'm wondering what a good (if any?) slug would be for a like/favorite post

tantek
no real pattern to like post slugs - most put nothing, second most put some sort of auto-slug of the post they're liking, even if the liked post has no slug of its own
#
tantek
upon consideration, putting a slug on a like (especially more of a slug than the liked post) seems like a bad idea as it potentially does more "SEO" than the original liked post, which seems like bad form from a community / peer respect perspective
#
tantek
I wouldn't my like of a post showing up higher than the liked post in a search result

#
tantek
can't think of a good use-case for a slug on a like post, and can think of downsides (any form of out-SEOing the liked post or author thereof), thus going with no slugs on like posts for now.

in order to make storing like posts as minimal/efficient as possible, I'm re-assessing/questioning all aspects of everything I store about a post in my flat file storage

hence some of the questioning about HTML5 article and footer for example, both of which I currently use but am looking at dropping

As a side-effect it looks like I'm adding to my 2015-01-01 launch commitment, under the covers at least. A drastically simpler storage format.

I'm not using them for any styling hooks nor hyperlink fragment destinations

I believe I may have put them there only as legacy thinking from when id attributes were an essential part of the permalinks of my blog posts (2002-2008)

what is a sidefile?
#
Loqi
The sidefile-antipattern is a violation of the DRY principle by the use of secondary files (typically in some one-off XML format) to provide information that is a duplicate of information available in primary files on a website (in HTML), and is an antipattern due to typical DRY violation problems such as out-of-date, missing, corrupted, or outright false data https://indiewebcamp.com/sidefile

kylewm
thinking about the "isn't it just wordpress" confusion from yesterday; i do feel like the homepage could do a better job answering the question at the top "What is the IndieWeb?"
#
Loqi
The indieweb is about owning your domain and using it as your primary identity, to publish on your own site (optionally syndicate elsewhere), and ownyourdata https://indiewebcamp.com/indieweb
#
kylewm
exactly, Loqi
#
Loqi
grins profusely
#
kylewm
like, this version from last February does a better job (imho) of answering the question http://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=7060
Sebastien-L joined the channel
#
tantek
kylewm - that wasn't the impression of the broader more diverse crowd at IndieWebCampSF
#
tantek
and it's always better to say what something is *first*, *before* saying how is it different than other things
#
tantek
better to have your primary identity be defined in a way not dependent on comparing yourself to others
#
aaronpk
agreed, so why is the first sentence "the indieweb is a people-focused alternative to the corporate web"
#
tantek
because that has been a strongly resonating one line summary
#
aaronpk
but that's comparing it to something else
#
tantek
(do a google search on it)
#
kylewm
tantek: what wasn't the impression of the crowd at SF?
#
tantek
aaronpk - that's a hook
#
tantek
it's what gets folks like journalists and such somewhat interested
#
kylewm
I'm not saying get rid of the elevator pitch that Scott wrote; I'm just saying it doesn't answer "What is the indieweb?" anymore
#
tantek
the key is its brevity
#
Loqi
The indieweb is about owning your domain and using it as your primary identity, to publish on your own site (optionally syndicate elsewhere), and ownyourdata https://indiewebcamp.com/indieweb
#
aaronpk
it does a good job of that, but we don't have an actual one-sentence definition on the home page
#
kylewm
it doesn't say "Create and publish content on your own site," anywhere
#
tantek
we could prehaps do with a briefer version of that /indieweb definition as a one sentence before the "people-focused alternative"
#
tantek
kylewm: and that still won't help the "isn't it just wordpress" crowd
#
GWG
What is the corporate web?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "corporate web" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/index.php?action=edit&title=corporate+web
#
kylewm
I think it would
#
tantek
because even when pointed out that the page has a HEADING answering that question, they're blind to it
#
tantek
it's not a amount of text or right text problem
#
tantek
they're stuck in a viewpoint
#
tantek
they don't want their flippant dismissal to be invalidated

"How is it different than something like WordPress?" sans tone is not a flippant dismissal, imo.

Something called JetPack

maybe my proposal would be, move the "Your content is yours/ you are better connected /you are in control" block above "What is the IndieWeb?" and bolster the "people focused alternative to the corporate web" with the practical description "publishing on your own site"

Is that for new ones, voxpelli? Or will it fix the ones on my older posts?
#
voxpelli
KevinMarks_: The data is there now, but I haven't pushed the facepiles out to existing embeds because that would require everyone to update the styling of their sites
#
voxpelli
Right now I pushed the facepiles it to a new experimental embed and I will push a new opt-in embed version with it eventually – would preferably want some feedback/experience on the new facepiles first though
#
voxpelli
KevinMarks_: If you like to test it before that you can try it right now if you like by adding a version=cutting-edge query param to the /api/embed script that you include – but I will push other experimental stuff eventually as well, so should move to a new stable embed soon

Does bridgy allow publishing comments on a status (our own status), or just new status?

It looks like we don't have a page for "RTFAQ? :)" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/index.php?action=edit&title=RTFAQ%3F+%3A%29

pretty soon I plan to start a cordova app to do some things such as an mp-client and hopefully notifier. I think getting indieauth methods correct will be the most complex bit though
#
ben_thatmustbeme
if anyone is interested in such a project with me

going to do some more testing with data locally, and verify posting UI (what little I have)

I've even got the clustering display working on my home page (locally)

I think I'm not going to bother to fave POSSE copies

#
tantek
I was thinking about this - all it does is send the person a duplicate on their original (via Bridgy), and give more credence/relevance to silo copies
#
tantek
neither of which is good
#
tantek
so why go to the extra effort?
#
tantek
this is different than POSSEing replies to POSSE copies, because that helps keep both threads going, allows people to reply to either etc.
#
tantek
and I'll likely use Bridgy to update Twitter/FB when I fave things there

as part of this I got rid of <article> tags on my home page since no browser did anything with them

and I'd setup all the CSS to style .article anyway for backcompat
