Inspired to finally for out my Feedland space today after reading @Dave ’s 🔗 doc

Simple instructions and it ‘just worked’ - so much to the point that I am happy to link to it from my 🖇️ Blog Navigation.

The link takes you to my 🔗 news feed which is a ‘river of news’ driven by my 🔗 subscriptions - early days yet but it’s a start.

The impetus was that Dave was also talking elsewhere about adding BlueSky feeds to the list. I tried it out - and added a couple of my own. I didn’t use the handy dandy ‘sub’ short cut that Dave demonstrated.

Would be great if I could edit the title - maybe you can, but not found out how yet.

// @andysylvester - because I know you are tracking this stuff.

I am very much liking the location / check in feature on the micro.social app. It has given me some ideas that are not so much about ‘checkins’ - but are related to ‘location’. Thank you.

There is an odd issue though @manton @gregmorris - any thoughts?

🖇️ In this post I noticed that the image used in the post is duplicated with two different file names in the media library.

• https://john.philpin.com/uploads/2025/image-20250405-221255-ed6d1232.jpg

The post itself uses the second image - so where has the first image come from and why?

Pretty sure this is happening because of the micro.social app - since this behaviour is also on the other post which came via micro.social using location.

The Tinted Rose 📍

Talking of excellent beverages … The Tinted Rose is just down the road from PPO. Smaller, more subtle. Beer choice not extensive - but great cocktails and an excellent wine list.

🔗 Big Tech: Proceed with Caution - Gapingvoid

Imagine a ‘connect-the-dots’ (Ed: playbook). The people in an organization are the dots. Their relationships are the lines connecting them. That complex web represents an organization. And culture, which occurs in the spaces in between, is the picture that emerges based on how those dots are connected. If you erase 10,000 dots, what happens to the picture?

The reason why there are thousands of quotes across the internet from Steve Jobs, Richard Feynman, Maya Angelou, Henry Ford, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Ben Franklin, Eleanor Roosevelt, is because their ability as communicators is what drove their success.
