Thought I’d take a look at Plume. Some shenanigans to get my blog to approve Plume - or the other way round - but twe got there - and this is my first post. Lets see where this goes.


🔗 A Node on the Web

Email was supposed to be an open, decentralized protocol. Instead, a handful of monopolies have effectively privatized deliverability: they decide whose mail is trustworthy, whose isn’t, and independent servers are guilty until proven innocent.


🔗 Why I left Mastodon - Justin Pot

.. or just use Micro.Blog


I just looked at: valid.rss.chat for john.philpin.com - and no dice …

Turns out that my blog isn’t ‘malformed’, it is because Micro.blog’s RSS feed output does not currently conform completely to the RSS.chat interoperability profile.

I can wait.

🔗 Trump To Order Redesign of Aircraft Carriers Because They Don’t Look Right

This comes after Trump just a few days ago ordered the Navy to go back to steam-powered catapults (the thing that hurls the planes forward off the ship for takeoff) from the new electromagnetic catapults.

“Lasting innovation is built on connections.”

So true … across;

industries ➕ sectors ➕ geographies ➕ disciplines

and time … continuously ➕ continually … so that we keep in mind that we are in a marathon - not a sprint.

CONTINUAL creates the nodes of our community

CONTINUOUS forms the fabric that will sustain our community

TOGETHER … not ‘and’ … ‘➕’

🖋️ What Are These 'Systems of Engagement' Of Which You Speak?

Stop your focus on record-keeping and command-and-control systems. They are history. They are and always were. The future is ‘Engagement’. BUT - where are those systems?


How Pete Townshend’s drunken night with two Sex Pistols inspired The Who’s last classic song with Keith Moon.

But if you aren’t of that persuasion have no fear - what I really wanted t share was this:

🔗 Neil Vogel, CEO of People Inc., calls Google an “intentional bad actor” for using the same crawler for both search and AI.

Question - is Neil Vogel the ‘best thing since sliced bread’?

(Little Kiwi humour there.)


Looks Looked like a really interesting idea until I got to this screen. It speaks volumes.
