Digital Frontiers, IndieWeb Cowboys, and A Place Online To Call Your Own
The IndieWeb is a community of developers and designers and web-surfing wraiths connected by a belief in personal websites/domains as identity, digital self-publishing, and perhaps most chiefly owning one's content. In this talk, Henry will explore the key principles of the IndieWeb, and specifically focus on the concept of POSSE (or "Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere"), its benefits, and how it empowers folks to reclaim ownership of their online content or data. They will also discuss concrete and actionable strategies for implementing POSSE in one's own online presence (PERHAPS USING ELEVENTY?!?!?) and the potential impact it can have on the wider web
This is a talk session at the 11ty International Symposium on Making Web Sites Real Good.
