[capjamesg] What is an archived category?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "archived category" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "archived category is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[capjamesg] Has anyone seen a category page that is “archived” in that you know you aren’t going to add more posts to it?

#
[tantek] hi wturrell, what software are you considering using to consume the microformats?
#
wturrell tantek: to be honest, I'm not really. Have just moved blog from WordPress to an SSG (Jigsaw), and am trying to get in habit of marking stuff up correctly. I have the Firefox microformat extension installed and that's all.
#
Loqi hey [tantek] wturrell, can you move the tech talk (Microformats, SSG) to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?
#
[tantek] yep, good call
#
[tantek] wturrell, I wouldn't worry about marking up books except maybe with some visible information like ISBN since that's plain text findable

#
wturrell tantek: thanks (I quite like linking to the publisher's page rather than a store these days)
#
[tantek] yes! we do have some pages on that too
#
[tantek] what is a book
#
Loqi 📕📙 A book is a written work typically longer than an article, often mentioned in read posts, sometimes in collections of a personal library, or even published in its entirety on IndieWeb sites https://indieweb.org/book
#
[tantek] what is ISBN
#
Loqi An ISBN or International Standard Book Number is a unique numeric commercial book identifier, re-used by some sites in custom URLs for redirects or searching for books and related data https://indieweb.org/ISBN
#
[tantek] ^ bunch of useful tips there for linking to books
#

#
[tantek] anyone have experience with https://tagpush.app/ ? cc: [snarfed] [social]
#
rMdes-bnc yes, I have create an integration with it for my indiekit activitypub plugin
#
rMdes-bnc I follow specific tagpush hashtags and when I use these same hashtag, tagpush boost my posts
#
rMdes-bnc did the same with https://tags.pub/
#
gRegor Not this specific app, but https://newsmast.community/@music reposts anything with hashtag #music, I've experienced it reposting me
#
gRegor They have accounts for several other tags, seems like the same idea
