Microformats

After yesterday’s post, it was time to finally try to handle a blog post and Cooklang recipe in one file. The solution to how to format things was simple: inline the recipe in a Markdown code fence and pre-process it.

You’ll probably read this recipe and think wait, this is just overnight oats but you’d be wrong, because this is a recipe for overnight oats that someone who cares about you remembered to make for you last night. At least that’s how I interpret my 3-year-old’s mis-hearing or pronunciation of us...

Back in 2023 I quietly published my /uses slashpage. Today I gave it a pass to update things that had fallen out of date.

Unlike social media microblogging, there’s not a great story for continuing the conversation of a blog post that’s part of the IndieWeb. Replying to a blog post most often takes the form of a reply to a POSSE¹ syndication like a Mastodon post or promotion link on Hacker News.

/now answers “what are you up to recently?” and you should have one.

Mentionable is a gem that provides support for inbound Webmentions and microformats in Rails apps.
