Internet of "Just Janitor Things"

I suspect these are simple bluetooth low energy beacons. Will find out more on my next visit. I have to wonder about the cost-benefit of these. It seems like you should already have a regular schedule for cleaning. So that leaves out-of-band events. Seems like a sign with a phone number for call/text would have worked as well...

1500 Word MTU Experiment: Day #1

1500 Word MTU Experiment: Day #1

[lynx-ified version below]

End of day #1 with Known. I'm quite pleased with the results.

Good Stuff

* brid.gy is awesome. Having +1's, likes and comments consolidated is so nice.

* Webhooks! I'm thinking of writing one to automatically archive pages to archive.org.

* PuSH appears to be fully working. Again, could extend things there..

* Google+ renders images well.

* The editor saves drafts.

* Lightweight page editor should be useful.

* AMP support is there (add ?_t=amp to any page) Some validation issues, but works.

* Real anchor tags and hyperlinks. No more writing [1] [2] in posts with multiple links (like lynx)

Rough Edges

* The built-in Photo type doesn't send the permalink to Twitter, so now I have a weird post without context. Flickr, Facebook working perfectly, might try another setting.

* I need to get to writing a Google+ outbound connector. I'm doing those by hand now.

* TInyMCE sucks. It has always sucked! If only Medium would open source their editor. At least markdown is an option.

* Looks like syndicated Google+ links are using profiles.google.com instead of plus.google.com.

* Some profile pics cloned from G+ are coming back with size 0. This shows as broken images.

* Long status posts have extra long permalink URLs.

* Built-in analytics are weak. Would rather avoid using GA for that.

* Limited import options. Will need to convert Typepad export file to Wordpress format.

* Bulleted lists line-height is tight, tight, tight.

Overall I'm pretty happy and excited about getting more content in place.

And who knew that a post on SSL/TLS certs would be soooo exciting?
