liked The Colonization of Confidence., Sightless Scribbles
“They are selling you a solution to a problem they created. They want you to feel insecure. If you feel insecure, you pay the subscription.”
“You are not bad. You are a jazz musician in a world trying to sell ringtones.”

bookmarked The internet used to be fun
here’s a collection of articles that to some degree answer the question “Why have a personal website?” with “Because it’s fun, and the internet used to be fun."
(It still is, but it used to be, too)

Every time I visit Ricardo’s garden his open tabs become my open tabs.

I’ve seen a few indie web directories popping up lately, so in an attempt to keep track of them all I’ve started on a directory of indie web directories.
Then I was introduced to Russel’s paradox, which asks if a directory should include itself?
The answer is no, you make another one.
bookmarked Endgame for the Open Web - Anil Dash
all the signs are pointing to the fact that we might be in endgame for “open” as we’ve known it on the Internet over the last few decades

Added support for photos and videos
Three days after posting Changes to the Site and it’s already out of date.
I wrote that I was going to optimise my photos so they would be smaller and I could include them in my posts, since that’s all I was planning to do.
Then I realised I needed a video in my post. If you’ve read Museum memories you’ll know why. …
Museum memories
This is my entry for this month’s IndieWeb Carnival: Museum memories.

Changes to the Site
I’ve made some recent changes to the site and have a few ideas for what comes next.
Changes:
- Notes: shorter posts that don’t need titles
- Bookmarks and likes: a way to share links without writing full posts
- Replies: posts that are part of a conversation with another site
- Webmentions: now appear below posts
Ideas:
- serving media through a CDN
- dynamic image resizing with imgproxy
- publishing from my phone using micropub
