I spent the weekend at IndieWebCamp Nuremberg, the fifth edition in this city — two days at the tollwerkstatt as part of Nürnberg Digital Festival, in good company with a bunch of IndieWeb folks.

The highlight of Day 1 was René's session, “Make the web great again.” It gloriously derailed into everyone trying to out-do each other with the silliest, most gleefully useless links the web has to offer. I hope there is a blog post soon, but for a starter: esd-systeme.de. A reminder that the indie web isn't only specs and Webmentions — it's also delight.

Day 2 was Create Day and I built a Web Feed Roll for this site. It deserves its own post, so more on that very soon.

Everything is documented in detail on the IndieWeb Wiki: indieweb.org/2026/Nuremberg

IndieWebCamp Nuremberg 2026, Create Day. I had a chance to launch sylLabel notebook and migrate my magic 8-ball to its own page. sylLabel Local storage, no server/tracking, one .html file. A quick place to write, draft poetry-prose, prosetry on the go for appealing screen-captures and what-not. Years ago, I hunted for a syllable counter because […]

A bike tour, my birthday, playing two gigs with two bands, attending one other concert, Halde Hoheward with Florian, and the usual random frames in between. (43 photos)

Read about my what is going on currently in Naty’s life, in a zoomed-out kind of way. I plan to update mine only once in a while.

Screenshot of the default view of a new website on Neocities Note that it helps a newbie visualize a website as a set of files. Note that it includes a link to download the entire site. This came up because I’m listening in on a session at Nuremberg IndieWeb Camp 2026.

I love Daniel Eatock’s website! The way he publishes his art and ideas for decades on this beautifully simple website is a tremendous accomplishment. And very inspiring. That is why I wrote a page on my digital garden about it. Already part three of a series on inspiring websites.

When I announced that I was open-sourcing a quiz maker earlier this week, I noted that there were several limitations to what I had built. Most importantly, my quiz maker was a Python script, which substantially limits how many people can use it. After writing the blog post,...

Content warning: This poem is about the ongoing heat in Europe. I strike an optimistic tone toward the end, but if you would prefer not to read about the heat, I offer you one of the Scottish poems I have written in stead. Nature’s weary tears fill the air; invisible, warming. Relentlessly, days proceed. Hours pass; Celsius rises. Midnights: warm like day. We stay inside. Blinds closed, water glasses full, cookers off. Flowers bloom early. Eyelids weigh; we yearn for rest that does not come. Heat ravages the continent. London is Rome. Roads reduce to liquid, power lines sag: infrastructure is under stress. Headlines depress. Hope: We come together, reaching with open eyes. Her resiliency: Our future?

Last week I took some days off for a family event. It was a lovely trip. It’s commonplace to dread flying in the United States these days, and so it was terrific that it was uneventful. In addition to family time which I won’t share, Kelly and I got to tool around D.C. and Virginia...

Had a lot of fun yesterday at #loscon26, wearing the #CoderDojo hat. I had the chance to present @coderdojonbg and support the participants in taking their first steps into hardware programming — which was also slightly outside my comfort zone. The community was really cool and pleasant — thanks @simondueckert for the opportunity. Wishing all participants much more fun for the second day today!

Attending my first Trading Card Show and thinking about selling my vintage Pokémon card collection, and the usual link dump.

Yesterday was the hottest Broken Arrow Skyrace 23k of the four I have run. And the hardest. Sometimes you give it your all and your all is not quite enough. Made it much farther than last year, under worse (hotter, dryer, dustier) conditions.It was already in the mid-70s Fahr...

I am continuing to experiment with writing some fiction on this blog. Here is a story I wrote today. Where were words when you needed them the most? Lena had been searching for the answer to that question for her whole life. For Lena, telling a story to light coming from a ...
