Short overview of John Locke's commonplace book method. Nothing I haven't seen before sadly.

And probably not a method I would personally use unless I was thinking about paper solutions.

Mostly an advertisement for their other materials, but a reasonable overview particularly with

4 Benefits of Keeping a Commonplace Book

• To remember what inspired you
• To save hours on research.
• To find unexpected connections.
• To focus your future reading.

Supposedly helped to popularize commonplace books in the Renaissance.

This article has lots of examples of commonplace books and talks about a few of the older online methods for collecting and keeping them.

It doesn't touch on any of the newer applications with backlink UI like Roam Research, Obsidian, Foam, etc.

And as Kimberly Hirsh indicated, it doesn't include keeping one on your own website where you can truly keep it for yourself.

I'm curious to take a look after seeing this. Thanks for the recommendation.

I've tried Memrise and Duolingo before and like Duolingo a lot. I don't think they've got a French option, but I've also been using a platform called SSiW or Say Something in Welsh (they've got a few other languages too). I like their focus on verbal fluency over the methods traditionally taught in most classroom settings.

Having studied a handful of languages in the past, I'm quite impressed at how much and how well I can understand Welsh after only 20 minutes or so a day for about a month.

I'm going to have to circle back to this for a proper response.

Some icky growth hacking dark patterns that Clubhouse is using.

Amen!

A fairly comprehensive list of problems and limitations that are often encountered with data as well as suggestions about who should be responsible for fixing them (from a journalistic perspective).

A view into communities, identity, and how smaller communities might be built in new ways and with new business models that aren't as centralized or ad driven as Facebook, Twitter, et al.

A long, but worthwhile read. This goes into some valuable ideas about public spaces that the typical article on the independent web doesn't explore.

If one is worried about link rot for transclusion, why not just have a blockquote of the original in excerpt form along with a reference link to the original. Then you've got a permanent copy of the original and the link can send a webmention to it as a means of notification?

If the original quoted page changes, it could potentially send a webmention (technically a salmention in function) to all the pages that had previously mentioned it to create updates.

Automatic transclusion can also be more problematic in terms of original useful data being used as a vector of spam, graffiti, or other abuses.

As an example, I can "transclude" a portion of your page onto my own website as a reply context for my comment and syndicate a copy to Hypothes.is. If you've got Webmentions on your site, you'll get a notification.

For several years now I've been considering why digital gardens/zettelkasten/commonplace books don't implement webmention as a means of creating backlinks between wikis as a means of sites having conversations?

A broad overview of the original web and where we are today. Includes an outline of three business models that don't include advertising including:

• Passion projects
• Donation-based sites
• Subscription-based sites

I wonder how much this mini-article about Twitter subscription services may have been in response to Galloway's article last week?

Or will they, as he suggests they do so often, make a head fake to something they might do and then just do nothing (again)?

A synopsis of some of what Twitter has been doing wrong, opportunities squandered, and what it could be doing. Reasonable analysis of what some new competitors are doing to generate value in tangential spaces.

I was thinking about logic a bit this evening and looked up an old professor. Saddened to hear he's passed away.

Mobirise looks like an interesting IndieWeb-ish sort of tool for relative beginners. It also looks like it dovetails with Github Pages.

I'm curious how a model like Homebrew Website Club or regular DoOO meetups might be similar to or borrow from a teaching model like this class?

This seems like the sort of thing Greg McVerry would appreciate.

Glad to have you back Ben!

Interesting to hear the results of the experiment. Knowing that it only made you $10 on their platform is an interesting data point.

I can't wait to see what you come up with on the community front. Healthier competitors to Facebook's pages/communities is a problem we need more work on.

I identify with this a lot and I feel like I'm failing while working on an even easier "difficulty setting" than Kimberly.

Take care of yourselves people!

This could be an interesting read.

I like the phrasing of Caliban's mirror to describe this phenomenon

I don't think I've come across this paper before...

Looking at the link, it's obvious I read it on December 11, 2019.

The idea of bellwether counties seems to be disappearing.

Are there indicators here that could be leveraged to help pull people to the middle rather than being so heavily polarized or to prevent future gerrymandering?

Wow, that's strict.
