I wrote about the Indie Web a couple of years ago, and it’s good to catch up with the impressive progress since then.

I have been watching reading and following links from this summit you posted and documented, really interesting thanks. Can you explain how your Indie Web plugin for WP functions on this site?
I’m still learning how it works — I had to take all that stuff out for a reinstall. Will be posting soon. Meanwhile, take a look at Indie Web’s own explainers: http://indieweb.org
The IndieWeb plug-ins for WordPress enable comments by Webmention – this is a good page to read to get started.
Hi, Dan. This is the wrong place for this, but your contact form on dangillmor.com doesn’t work for me on either Mac Chrome or Mac Safari. Maybe one of the >.
Checking this out…thanks.
