I think I understand what you’re working towards Chris and it’s very interesting. One of the problems I have with the current Post Kinds plugin…
But Frank, it already does this. If there is no mf2, it tries JSON-LD and OGP.
I use an OS project called Weewx and a combination of sensors. Most often, inexpensive Acurite sensors with an SDR dongle to receive.
Refbacks for WordPress Version 2.0 Released
The Refbacks plugin is now updated after nearly two years. The plugin doesn’t need much attention, it always worked it’s based on the Webmentions plugin, and we’d done some work over there that I brought over, including a new retrieval class, improved type support, etc.
The way I implemented Refbacks is essentially this. When someone visits a page on my website, and it has a referer string, it forks into the background a process to retrieve that page, verify it does link, and creates a refback comment. Semantic Linkbacks parses microformats and enhances that comment. It excludes links on the same site, as these are handled already by webmention or even pingback.
One of the things I’ve used this for in the past is to show mentions of my site on the Indieweb wiki.
Last month, Herb Solow passed away at the age of 89. Solow was well known as the executive in charge of production of the original Star Trek. I recently found this picture of the time I met him and Bob Justman in Boston in 1997 when they were doing a signing of their book, Inside Star Trek.
Coming up on the 25th is the IndieWebCamp Create Day. This is an online event where people will work on projects while sharing in a common Zoom room, so they can collaborate with others, or just bounce ideas and feel togetherness. People are invited to demo to others what they worked on. If you have no other plans that day, why not join us for a little while, or a long while.
Remembering Six Flags Atlantis
As part of my continual nostalgia series, today I’m continuing my Florida memories by remembering Six Flags Atlantis, below brochure is from my own collection.
Six Flags Atlantis was a water park that existed in the 1980s, and ultimately was demolished after damage from Hurricane Andrew in 1992.
Where the park once sat is a series of retail shopping establishments.
WordPress allows for custom archive templates. For the longest time, I’ve wanted to change the archive for my photo posts to show them in a photo grid. So, I’ve now done that at /kind/photo. You have to click the photo to see the full context, but I like the presentation of all photos I’ve posted. This does not include photos in other types of posts, but it’s probably the most visual item I’ve put out in a while. I hope it causes me to post more photos.
Waikiki Beach Hotel, Sunny Isles, Florida
For the 80s and into the early 90s, my family would spend time at the Waikiki Motel in Sunny Isles, Florida. The entire stretch of beach, once littered with 3-4 story hotels, is now filled with high rises, which block the view of the beach from the street and cast a shadow onto it.
I have many family photos of time at this place.
