To Timeshift Or Not To Timeshift
Damn. I need to shift my clocks again.
Most people don't know this but, even living in CA, I live on east coast time. For about 5 years now, all…

I love your style
Since I have been in Kalkan a number of times people have praised my look and style, the first time was the hotel bar manager, Josef, who said:
I really love your harmony.
Today we had a leisurely day. We had a lie in and a late breakfast at the hotel. Once we were done th...
Wonders of Web Weaving, Episode 9
The ninth episode of Wonders of Web Weaving is out:
In Episode 9, I chat with Rachel, the author of kwon.nyc and curator of "The internet used to be* fun *(It still is, but it used to be, too)". We talk about, among other things, metaphors for the web, creative mediums on the web, physical creative spaces, and more.
I hope you enjoy the episode!
Wonders of Web Weaving also has an RSS feed you can use to follow along from wherever you get your podcasts.
All the trees have tinnitus
We decided the night before not to stay up to watch the Mexico v England game, as it wasn't going to kick-off until 03:00 in Türkiye. This was a great decision as the rain in Mexico delayed kick-off until 04:00 our time. When I awoke at 07:15 I put on the stream of the match...
How my images are dithered
I don't know much about dithering. But when I visit other people's sites and they dither their images in cool ways I always wonder how they do it. So in case anyone is wondering, here's my current method for dithering these pink images.

Getting to Kalkan
It turns out that the Holiday Inn at Gatwick was a great idea. We both managed to get a good few hours sleep and awoke at 03:00. A quick turn around and we were outside the hotel waiting for the Gatwick Hoppa a shuttle bus that goes around the hotels before dropping off at t...
Download our App
Today we leave home to go to Kalkan. When we originally booked our flight was at 20:40 but in April we received a notification, from Tui, that our flight had been moved to another flight. This was probably something related to the stupid war that Trump had started.
Our new f...

How do I know the system is working?
A few weeks ago, I received a bug report for Artemis that indicated a user’s reader was not being updated as expected. This error was caused by a feed that caused the polling code to error out and stop. My code assumed a value was present and, if it wasn’t, the program would...
Forest
You look up from your bed of grass flowers, opening your eyes to see the layers of branches grown by the trees in the grove that surrounds you. The blue sky peeks through the gaps between the leaves. The sunlight that shines through and onto the leaves and branches leaves yo...
Star
First star — in the sky next to the tall Gothic monument in the town square, a square with many outdoor restaurants — people laugh and take pictures, eat ice cream, stroll, enjoy the moment. I love watching the world. Of seeing colours and tenors and of hearing sounds that you can only appreciate when out in the world — the sound of a bike breaking in the cobblestone, manoeuvring with ease through the town square.

What does a blog post sound like?
As I write, I hear the keys on my keyboard pressing down – the sounds are fast, rhythmic, comforting. I hear the whirr of a hard drive in the background, and the occasional car walk past. Every so often, bird song comes into the foreground; I hear the calls of birds in the d...

Brainstorming a loginless web reader
At IndieWebCamp Nürnberg, Tilman worked on a “feedroll”, a collection of feeds aggregated on a single page that demonstrates the capability of following different websites with a web reader. This, and a discussion with friends, got me thinking about what a “loginless” web re...
Author/reader interaction on the indie web
Every so often I hear or read about the significance of readers as part of the indie web. Indeed, the indie web is about much more than making personal websites: it is a space where there are many personal websites to explore. You don’t need a personal website to explore the...
A week in Nürnberg
James’ Coffee Blog has been on a bit of a break while I went on holiday to Nürnberg, Germany. I set off last Friday and returned the Friday after, during which time I attended an IndieWebCamp, an in-person Homebrew Website Club at Technische Hochschule Nürnberg, and spent ma...

I had a lot of leftover images from the Fireworks Studies gallery that I had to cut out to keep the album focused, but which I liked…
