At Jester King brewery 🍻

Today I imported dozens of posts from past blogs and homepages dating back to 2001.

Check out my From the Archive category to see them. https://blog.nertzy.com/categories/from-the-archive/

I enjoyed Jason Snell’s write-up about the Power Mac G5, which was my first Mac back in 2005. https://sixcolors.com/post/2020/08/20-macs-for-2020-20-power-mac-g5/

Today I checked my Timehop and I had content from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, and 19 years ago. It’s amazing that my digital footprint is starting to span multiple decades! https://timehop.com

I migrated this blog to https://micro.blog hosting today. Definitely not missing managing my WordPress site. It’s the end of over fifteen years of self-hosting my blog. But the rest of my site remains self-hosted for now. https://blog.nertzy.com

It has been great catching up with my former coworker Joe Masilotti who happened to come to IndieWebCamp 2020 Austin with me! https://masilotti.com

Today at IndieWebCamp 2020 Austin I’m figuring out what my personal site https://nertzy.com has on it and running it through https://indiewebify.me to get some basics like h-card set up. After that, I’ll be looking into social reader apps. http://microformats.org/wiki/h-card

It’s been a fun afternoon of discussions at IndieWebCamp 2020 Austin today.
I just led a breakout discussion about what we can do to reclaim our personal data from social media silos #reclaimyourweb

Everyone is presenting their personal websites. I just hopped up and presented https://nertzy.com and how I have copies of my older blogs at http://old.nertzy.com and http://old.nertzy.com/old/ and how I want to merge that old content into my site someday.

I’m going to post a lot today

I’m at IndieWebCamp Austin 2020 this weekend. https://indieweb.org/2020/Austin

My wife and I tried out climbing at Austin Bouldering Project last Friday. It was a blast! https://austinboulderingproject.com

I just started reading the book Atomic Habits by James Clear. I appreciate his attention to detail and willingness to be open about the complexities behind his British Cycling example in the first chapter. Read his update here. https://atomichabits.com

I’m getting excited about Play Date, an upcoming handheld video game system from Panic. They released an update and things are looking really good for a release later this year! https://play.date/
