I picked this up because it's this month's IndieWeb Book Club pick. Wouldn't have found it otherwise, and that's exactly why book clubs matter. If you've got a place on the internet, why don't you joi...
I really am a big fan of having an archive of what happened throughout all the years of an event. Speakers, slides, videos, additional coverage and so on. FFconf now created an additional “Feeds” section with all RSS feeds of past speakers. Lovely.
BTW: FFconf is taking place on 13 November in Brighton this year. I try to make it again, but you should definitely go!

Naturally!
Is it the species they think it is? Who cares.
Happy World Bicycle Day.
I wrote a thing about how hard it is for a tinkerer sysadmin to learn how to do things.
If you have answers, I am all ears.
