Wasn’t expecting anything new in UI design from Twitter / X, but this in-app browser UI actually looks pretty good. It keeps some context for the followed link (like reply and favorite buttons) visible while reading an article. Reduces the “cost” of clicking out of the timeline.

What a powerful incredible day it was yesterday all across the U.S. (and the world)! Early estimates are that over 7 million protesters in all 50 states came out to take a stand against dictatorial rule, fascism and a corrupt administration that continues to break the law and violate numerous human rights and our Constitution.

Organizers say the “No Kings” protests drew more than seven million people across 2,700 cities. The crowds included high-profile politicians, A-list celebrities, and more than a few creative inflatables.

Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency. … Continue reading Make No Little Plans →

Is your data ready for AI? As more and more organizations enter the planning stages of AI adoption, it’s a

From Matt Mullenweg’s talk at WordCamp Canada:
Day One is a fully encrypted synchronized blogging and journaling app, that runs on every device and the web, and you can have shared journals with others. It’s the first place I go to draft an idea, or for example, to write this talk.
This was a little surprising to me. In a way, it matches the workflow I sometimes use in Micro.blog. I use our private, encrypted notes feature to jot down ideas or write a draft, then move it into a blog post. But most of the time I just start right with a draft post.

Here is a sentence you never want written about your soccer team: Twenty minutes after Saturday's 0-3 loss to Chelsea, Nottingham Forest fired the manager it had hired just 39 days ago.
That's right, Ange Postecoglou is out. His sacking was announced via terse statement from the team just minutes after Postecoglou himself had stepped off the grass at the City Ground. Pity the mid-level Forest executive who was tasked with intercepting the curmudgeonly Australian outside the dressing room and informing him that he no longer had a job. That guy probably got called some rude names, at least one of them starting with the letter "c."

I have a really interesting idea for Netflix. Do a MCP so I can ask ChatGPT to find a show I'd probably like on Netflix. Then Hulu would have to hook up too, and HBO and Apple and everyone else. That would fix a big entertainment problem because I've already taught ChatGPT exactly what I like in movies and serials by giving it all my favorite shows and why I liked them so much. This was the idea of Bingeworthy, which I never seem to find time to work on. I really just want the freaking functionality. Someone should buy Metacritic btw, their process, however it works, is really good at finding the good stuff. But please someone who believes in open APIs, it totally needs to be in the Chativerse.
I have to remember to use WordLand to post to Mastodon, because when I go in that way, I don't have a character limit and I can use styling. We were wrestling with this question at WC, how to market the feature in a way that would get people to go to WordPress to write for Mastodon. It would also be cool if you could turn on the ActivityPub connection in WordLand, without having to wade through all the menus and dialogs. Imagine if we had a confirmation dialog like this in WordLand.

I presented WordLand for the first time publicly, the new one with a timeline, so it more clearly shows how we can build a beautiful social network just from open formats and protocols.
No user lock-in, every part replaceable, and open to developers to add functionality without having to reimplement the whole thing. These are all the things I think that have stood in the way of innovation in the web for many years.
A social network that starts out with no centralization and open in every sense has a much better chance of being decentralized than one that starts out centralized and swears they're going to stop doing that -- someday, fingers crossed, etc.
