- I'd like to start a blog carnival themed around leftist digital politics.
- I think blog carnivals are great. A fantastic way to ritualise togetherness in a community, and an excellent nudge to blog regularly.
- I've been doing the Emacs Carnival for a good few months now.
- I've not yet found time for the Indieweb Carnival, but I'd like to.
- We used to do node club on Agora too, which is pretty similar to a blog carnival.
- A carnival on lefty tech politics would be a good motivator to write, and a fun way to find the writings of others too.
- Bookmarked:
- I had a thought that alongside the 'indie' web (IndieWeb), what I also like is the idea of a 'slow' web.
- It captures what I've said before about not really doing that well on microblogging.
- I like the people and the content on the microbloggy side of the Fediverse, for example, but the pace and volume of it doesn't work well for me.
- Of course, there's plenty of prior art and thought around a slow web.
- There's a summary and links on the Indieweb wiki.
- It captures what I've said before about not really doing that well on microblogging.
- Blog carnivals are part of the slow web, for me at least.
