Hey Folks in/near NYC! @IndieWebCamp NYC is just 5 days away, 9/30 - 10/1

Last year’s IWC NYC was my first in-person IndieWeb experience, and I was completely caught up by the thoughtful people working first-hand to build a more personal, more social web; a web where your content, identity, and interactions are yours, instead of food for surveillance-powered ad-engines like Facebook.

Since then, I’ve started a Homebrew Website Club in Baltimore, a weekly IndieWeb Podcast, made tons of improvements to my site, and even created some IndieWeb tools, like a micropub media endpoint for storing photos, video, audio, and more, a tool for posting events to your own site, and a tool for posting audio, such as podcasts.

So come on out for two days of participatory discussions, user experience design, and face-to-face help improving our personal websites and the future of the IndieWeb!

I’ll be recording interviews for the This Week in the IndieWeb Podcast, if you’re interested in sharing your IndieWeb journey and thoughts.

There will also be some amazing people to meet, like IndieWeb co-founder Tantek Çelik, IndieWeb WordPress developer David Shanske, awesome designer Hannah Donovan, and many more!

Registration is super-affordable! Free if you have your own personal site! https://2017.indieweb.org/nyc.

Hope to see you there!
