My Week Ahead
My wife and I spend a lot of time together. We're not attached at the hip or anything, but we're really close, we get along, and we have plenty of things in common. Maybe it's...cool-as-heck.blog
I added a 'Tech I Use' page to my website.
Indieweb and static-site generator lovers, how do you host and organizelarge media? I want to share videos and photosets on the web but I don’t love the idea of just hosting them with YouTube, etc. Git isn’t great for large files and GitHub charges to host them so I don’t feel like I can just add them to my 11ty repo.
What solutions are out there? Ideally something that can be cheaply hosted and easy to integrate with 11ty, mirror, and migrate freely.
I'm pumped that #blogroll's are back but in the spirit of sharing follow recommendations for folks on the #fediverse, not just the #indieweb, I wanted to introduce the idea of a #fediroll. This is simply your shortlist of accounts you love and would recommend others follow! Here's my starting 10 below (there's many more I'd like to add in the future)

Yesterday morning, I woke up with my eye feeling weird. That is not the first time that happened. I have pretty severe allergies and I'll often wake up with crusty, itchy eyes. I chalked it...cool-as-heck.blog
I know I am late on Follow Friday but I wanted to share 2 #IndieWeb resources.
RSS search engine. Searches RSS feeds instead of the web
The below finds RSS feeds your Mastodon account shares.
feedle: Search and Discover Quality RSS Feeds from Thousands of Blogs and Podcasts
A search engine for blogs and podcasts, where every search is an RSS feed.feedle
I kind of miss having a search option on my blog.
I’m not sure how many people will see this, as I didn’t actively post before, but I’ve started a blog named Subtle Echo and posted the first entry today!
It’s a place to share my personal interests with the internet. Video games and the indie web are two big examples :).
I am still planning to slightly tweak the theming and create a favicon, but in the meantime you can check out my inaugural post.

Building a scrobbler using Plex webhooks, edge functions and blob storage // Cory Dransfeldt
I've written before about embedding music into my site and I've largely used Last.fm to do so. Their API is rather extensive, though it is showing its age — the default response format is XML, they've dropped artist images and have intermittently fai…Cory Dransfeldt
