This month’s IndieWeb Carnival theme is “Good Enough,” so of course I had to participate.
Resurfaced a very old post from another place, another time: My First Program. Perhaps you have a first-programming story?
TIL: You can no longer programmatically ping search engines with updates to your sitemap in an anonymous way. And I learned other things. Sitemaps on Pika.
I’m very heartened by the positive response to Pika, and very impressed with the writing that is happening on the platform. We haven’t yet had any epiphanies on how best share that writing with the world, but we definitely have that desire. It will be an interesting challenge to work on!
In February Good Enough took a little break from Pika to build a prototype for our next thing. So far we’re pretty happy with it, and we can’t wait to share it with the world! goodenough.us/blog/2024…
So a majority of the blogs in the world will soon be opted in to acting as training grounds for AI Tools. Not gonna happen at Pika. Pika Blogs Do Not Train AI Tools
Doing that product launch thing for Pika today on Product Hunt. 🎉
We’re really proud of the beautiful blogging experience we’ve created with Pika!
If you’re so inclined, drop in to Product Hunt and let us know your thoughts.
Proper launch for Pika is imminent. The team has worked hard through sickness all month to get here. It’s a modest product in terms of feature checklists, but it feels so nice.
I think I found that URL redirection service I was after: Redirect Pizza.
We at Good Enough have been cranking on Pika this week. None of this has really landed in the product, so it seems an update is in order.
Just deployed draft posts to Pika. Felt a bit uncomfortable as it doesn’t have quite the refinement that we like to have in a feature - even if it’s early days. Should clean up in the next week or two, though!
Pika Pages have arrived! It’s still a little rough around the edges, but I can now run my personal site on Pika. pika.pika.page/posts/pik…
This week’s Pika status, along with some personal-site inspiration: Pika Gliding Along.
After nearly 20 years I, with help from Good Enough, finally wrote blogging software. Now, now, Pika is just an alpha version, but it’ll grow into something special. I can feel it! Read more if you’re interested.
We plan to open up an alpha version of our blog software later today or tomorrow morning (US). It will be very basic to start, and the next significant developments probably won’t happen until early 2024. Still, if early adoption (and influence) is your jam, keep your ears open!
Trying on the IBM Plex font family.
One. More. Blog. Software!
Our little alpha at GE is coming along. Hopefully something play-withable early next month.
Things are coming along. (Still currently with a mission of “software to make my personal blog+site.”)
I think I’m a RubyMine (JetBrains) person now.
Here I go with another killer idea. We’ve decided to write personal blog software at Good Enough. That’s a pretty open market, right? 🤣 Our reasons aren’t that we see a big hole or have a big idea. I shared my very basic reasoning on the GE blog.
You running multiple monitors. This might save your sanity.
Wow, Firefox.
Still referencing RailsCasts after all these years. 😂
