#
[KevinMarks] one for site deaths https://songwhip.com/faq/sunset
#
[aciccarello] Was that a linktree style service for musicians?
geoffo joined the channel
#
[tantek] certainly looks like it
#
[KevinMarks] it was useful for sharing songs when people don't all use the same service too

Loqi ok, I added "2024-07-22 Songwhip(.com) "services will cease" per https://web.archive.org/web/20240530165251/https://songwhip.com/faq/sunset — unknown number of accounts, unknown number of user created / shared links" to the "See Also" section of /site-deaths https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=95600&oldid=95535

[Joe_Crawford] Benji shared just yesterday that he's using the site https://song.link/ for similar usage in his posting tool.

[tantek] Benji++ for a beautiful Micropub Client demo yesterday
#
Loqi Benji has 4 karma in this channel over the last year (5 in all channels)
#
[tantek] how do folks balance posting something small but partial quickly, vs posting something medium but say 80% complete in days or weeks?
#
[tantek] maybe this is the challenge of decomposing ideas down to minimal re-usable chunks

#
capjamesg[d] My new poetry layout is live: https://jamesg.blog/2024/05/30/tabs/
#
gRegor Usually it consists of noodling on the 80% draft for too long, forgetting or getting tired of it, then later deleting the draft :D
#
[tantek] oh no

[tantek] or more like :melting_face:
#
gRegor A bit of exaggeration on my part, but it's probably happened a few times :)
#
gRegor I've been experimenting with Obsidian and its daily notes feature to jot down ideas which I sometimes work into posts
antranigv and [benatwork] joined the channel
#
[benatwork] Not so much balance but I just do what feels right for the post with absolutely no concern for how it fits into the site as a whole 😉 eg I post a lot of three paragraph posts, but also just did a 3,000 word post intentionally for a particular audience that's having the impact I hoped it would.
#
[benatwork] I guess another way to put that is: my longer posts tend to be for other people; my shorter posts tend to be for me.

#
[tantek] gRegor, I feel seen ("am in this picture and don't like it" 😂 )
#
gRegor haha
#
[tantek] I would love to view a feed of *only* short posts on a site just to learn how others do it
#
[tantek] feed/archive etc.
#
[tantek] that's not quite notes, because those can be longer
#
[tantek] and it's also not not articles, because you can have short articles
schmudde and skinshafi joined the channel
#
[tantek] goodness sakes, many paragraphs, glossary, couple of references, and 80min just to write up a "simple" idea 😭 😂
#
[benatwork] (I use "asides" for those posts)
#
[tantek] [benatwork] idk what's main topic vs an aside on my site / blog
#
[benatwork] yeah, I more mean it as "here's a longer note that I'm jotting down" rather than "here's an idea I'm Publishing"
antranigv and [snarfed] joined the channel
#
[snarfed] anyone else get into XOXO? it'd be fun to get an indieweb group together there!
#
capjamesg[d] [snarfed] See #meta!
#
[KevinMarks] I'm in, and my son Andrew is. Waiting to see if Christopher gets in
#
[snarfed] 🎉
antranigv and timdream joined the channel
#
[tantek] [snarfed] are you going?
#
[tantek] a bunch of us have gotten in
#
[tantek] time to expand the XOXO 2024 page
sp1ff joined the channel
#
[snarfed] yes! I'm in and almost certainly going
#
[snarfed] which URL do I send my rsvp webmention to 🤔
#
[snarfed] I guess both https://2024.xoxofest.com/ and the https://events.indieweb.org/ event once it's there
#
[tantek] [snarfed] yes we likely should make an events.indieweb for all of XOXO 2024, then if/when there is a "Slack channel meetup", a separate event for that, then if we schedule a one-day Create Day / IWC a separate event for that
