I don't find the story of Michael Casey Lewis funny nor one of personal failure. Instead, I see a tail of someone so institutionalized they had to go right back inside. Hard to see any other conclusion.

@OnlineCrsLady privacy through data empowerment. Make your site public, private, delete when class is over. Make it a learner not an institutional choice.

@OnlineCrsLady actually that is 109% what I am doing. I annotate and bookmark sources here. Synthesize the thinking into articles on the blog and then publish chapters in our book. No SaaS needed, just the web.

@btopro That's the beauty of HTML. I could get the same file online and on a stone tablet.....why I love it. Knowledge as it's meant to be. Storable, reproducible, remixable and easy to learn. Fear modern Wed dev tools will recolonize literacy all over

Also this k it is easier to peak curiosity one domain at a time rather than trying to convince masses. If I reach 5 out of 100 and they reach 5 the web gets better. Plus maybe we shouldn't look to #HigherEd to sort out #edtech. Ain't much we don't screw up.

But I agree we need something like CPanel and Installatron for #OER. The networks I am rolling out using @withknown, Matrix, and @wikimedia are very doable if there is a tech lead. @reclaimhosting has this almost down to one push. Known set up takes work.

@btopro the web is 30 years old the lack of faculty not knowing how to read or write the web isn't an artifact of HTML being too hard but three decades of bad leadership and hiring decisions. How is it 30 years later we are in same place?

@mattl it isn't just programming feel like process fights waste so much productivity in so many industries as they are only resolved by writing more processes for people to argue about.

In #highered space want tools with the Othello model... Minutes to learn lifetime to master. Have the great UX you want but rely on open protocols and HTML so folks can peak behind the curtains and decide to redecorate all they want thus upping their game.

I also define anyone as #IndieWeb for having a place they control online, preferably from their own domain. All the other stuff is just cool extras that eliminate dependance on the corporate social web. Own your content, be in control, make better connections

I also try to avoid "Build for the masses" as a metric to success. Leads to vaporware in the industry and white papers in academia. Not how innovation systems work. You build out from the self and onto the world.

@btopro I wouldn't send faculty a W3C spec. I sent you one. For faculty I would do something like: https://alistapart.com/article/webmentions-enabling-better-communication-on-the-internet But I also want to push back on narrative it is about making the tools frictionless. We also need faculty to step up and learn how to handle the rough edges.

@btopro Be better off asking in dev but I think this is how many webmention clients work, they parse the mf2 and store json (I think??). reply could be trivial. Site A and Site B talking. Microformats provide context. You should make a webmention client for HAX sites https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/
