This podcast is partly being used to develop Indieweb podcasting tools for WordPress. As a result, it will get better each time I post. At the time of this post, there was no direct download option being generated, so if there is one here now, I’ve upgraded. Also, duration is missing. But unlike previous episodes, the system will now autogenerate the enclosure for RSS feeds, so you can subscribe.
The current podcast feed on this site can be found in a variety of ways.
Audio Posts on this Site – This is a feed of all my audio posts.
An Indieweb Podcast – I have something called Series on my site, so this is the feed for this as a series. I probably should have a feed called Podcast.
Co-Host: Chris Aldrich of Boffosocko.com

Deprecating and Replacing Bridgy Publish for WordPress by David Shanske https://david.shanske.com/2018/04/28/deprecating-and-replacing-bridgy-publish-for-wordpress/
History:
ThinkUP from Anil Dash and Gina Trapani ultimately died trying to fight the API wars with various social silos. They spent all their time trying to keep up with no guarantee that the silos would cooperate. All their engineering resources were spent trying to keep up instead of innovating on a stable platform.
