Where are you promoting things ...on a platform (it was a tweet), ironically. I tore my jekyll-based site down earlier this year because I have a bad habit of redesigning it every other Tuesday. it’s a strange compulsion, but your site an

Hi kicks! I didn’t know you were on HN, ever since discovering it I’ve been promoting the IndieWeb, and yours was the first site I came across; to me the IndieWeb and microformats is the web we should have gotten instead of one dominated by

I’ve found Panera Bread’s online ordering system to also be a well crafted order flow. To your question, I wonder if the exact reason they don’t is because they view their order software as something that gives them a competitive edge in th

Once again the lack of media coverage on this is appalling. I often encourage (and practice myself) looking for a tip email address to your favorite outlets and sending them...well a tip when there’s a story going on they haven’t yet repo
