Complain as we might about the corporate silos of Facebook and Twitter, they have helped break the monopoly of Google search. Before, if you didn’t rank well, for whatever reason, in Google your site, blog, whatever was pretty well dead.

Blogger @iamjeffperry suggested a community of indie bloggers. twitter.com/iamjeffpe… That sounds like a good idea. Cc. @c @manton

I’m trying to think about this from an #Indieweb perspective:

  1. Said community should be Web based: not Slack, not chat, because we’re trying to build a better Web. On the Web others can lurk, read think about what is being discussed even if they don’t want to join in.

  2. Sharing wants, needs of bloggers and micro bloggers not so much about code but things we’d like to see, problems, how to make it more simple to implement, etc.

  3. How to actually set up said communtiy. What script would one use? I’m old school so I immediately think of forums like Simple Machines, but I can see where forums are not mobile friendly and harder to use. Maybe there are better CMS based systems?

  4. Is the idea of an Indieweb (m)blogging community useful?

Okay @Jeep I leased a #Jeep in 2013. About 2 years into the lease I started getting phone calls selling extended warranty. I’m still getting them and I turned the Jeep in 2 years ago. Only 3 companies knew I had a Jeep 1. Jeep/Chrysler, 2. Chrysler Credit Corp., 3. Your dealer. Which one of you sold my name address and phone number to shill extended warranties to me? It’s one of you three. Let me make this clear: I didn’t buy the Jeep at the end of the lease because of those phone calls and I’ll never buy a Chrysler product again. You pooped in your own sandbox.

The more I think about it the more I think I should keep my pull-no-punches political posts on a Wordpress blog. That way I can better control when, where and how posts get syndicated out. Plus comments are conventional, righton the posting page.

I think my Bridgy brid.gy experiment is failing. Oh well, I’m not out anything. I’m guessing my MB theme does not support webmentions or I’ve done something wrong in connecting. Probably the later.
