IndieWeb NYC Meetup 2020-01-25 Wrap-Up

IndieWeb NYC's meetup for January 2020 met at Think Coffee on Mercer St on January 25th around 2pm.

Here are some notes from the meeting!

dmitri.shuralyov.com — Made even more progress on integrating IndieAuth into his site! In addition to letting people log in to his site with GitHub profile URLs (github.com/username), he has finished changes to allow folks to log into his site with their own URLs via IndieAuth. Along the way he learned a lot about and contributed to the IndieAuth spec! He wrapped up and deployed it at this meetup!

martymcgui.re — Since last time, create a very minimal indieweb.nyc site for folks that want to track IndieWeb events in NYC. This was just a few week's ahead of Aaron Parecki's launch of events.indieweb.org. 😂 Marty plans to continue updating indieweb.nyc but now has the events there link to events.indieweb.org.

Other topics of discussion

Tiara, Matt, and Jason were missed! Jason has been involved in the IndieWeb for a while, and we're excited to have him join the NYC community!
The new IndieWeb events site is great! Marty is looking forward to using it for future IndieWeb NYC meetups.
Thanks to Tantek for pointing out a Twitter thread about webrings and Tor onion sites. Marty spent a good portion of the meetup looking through folks sites (and checking that the .onion mirror of his own site (onion link) was working.
