If you care about the indie web growing, by all means write, by all means create, by all means curate. But most of all, just read. Or listen, or experience. Spend an afternoon clicking around, like everybody used to. The more people who do that, the more everything else will slot into place without even having to think much about it.

Craig and Jason are walking the walk here:

- Treat social media like the tool it is.
- Build your technical skills.
