Web writers, the AI has been trained on your public work, and it shows. You all have taught AI some truly terrible writing habits HFY writers have taught AI it has to start stories with “Bob sat on the bridge of the Earth Ship Big Birtha”. So AI does just that, even when I was […]

Long-time readers will know I love reading the blogs of my fellow geeks. For my focus in this introduction/r [Read More]
OpenMentions MentionsSo, I recently made a little toy I call Today In Emoji. It shows you some emojis that relate to the day. If you mouse over them, you get some text explaining what the relevance is, and some are links to more information. [skip to the code] It might look something like this: There’s a [… [Read More]

I was interested in which sites sent the most mentions to the openmentions.com endpoints. This is not especially important, but it could indicate who the most active and [Read More]

OpenMentions MentionsI can be one of the hardest human beings to make contact with on the planet (for a chronically online guy). I am part hermit, part geek. Also, I get lost inside my own ideas. This guide is mostly for people who know me, but generally for anyone who wants to make contact (like, say, […]
OpenMentions MentionsI blog, post, write, comment, maintain, or output content in so many spaces that I might actually miss some. Here is the list of everything (that I remembered while writing this post). I’m probably going to make updates after I publish this one. The Fantastic Site of Lord Matt, Super Geek That [Read More]

How do you (personally) IndieWeb?Some of you may know that I help run OpenMentions.com. And by help I mean it is my baby and so all the work is mine too. For a while now a few shortcomings and missing features have been bothering me. Today, I set out to fix or improve them. Trending topics The trending topics […]
OpenMentions MentionsYou have an IndieWeb-ish blog. Great. Now what? This post is my guide to connecting with readers in the IndieWeb way. I make no claims to completeness or dependableness but I think this is mostly right. Feel free to correct me with replies, mentions, or comments. Table of contents Why do I think I a [Read More]
OpenMentions MentionsWe live in the age of the “big” web. A web where a few tech giants control all our content. Well… Not all of it; just most. The web that the giants do not control is sometimes called the small web. The web that existed before big tech and that will exist after it too. […]

OpenMentions MentionsIt’s that time again – time to share the links and other stuff that I’ve been sitting on but have yet to do anything with. In case you missed last month’s divestment post, I have a problem with keeping too many tabs open and a general tendency to have far too many files sitti [Read More]

Like, for example, commenting on a blog post with another blog post on an entirely different website.

WebmentionThe IndieWeb is slowly moving from innovation to rely adopter so it is time to start thinking about content discovery. After all, what’s the point of a game for two people if you are the only one at the table? One of the ways IndieWeb can become easier to use is to become easier to […]

OpenMentions MentionsThe last time I questioned if blogging was dead I accidentally won a laptop. That was a long time ago.

TwitterThe round-robin has returned to my blog once more. I am still looking for bloggers who would like to take part in hosting this weekly event. Hosting means you get to list 10-ish things that you liked that were recently posted. Ideally including the best of other active hosts. Round Robin will come o [Read More]

It was not until I started reading the post that I realised what was missing from my life. It used to be that when you discovered an interesting website you could be pretty su [Read More]
Blogs And BloggingLove it or loath it, PHP is used for a lot of the web. PHP is astoundingly well adopted by developers. In the spirit of starting a conversation, let me pose a few questions to you – how do you feel about PHP? Me, I enjoy coding with it but am frustrated by the utterly […]
