“Re-decentralising the web” by Calum Ryan & “Narrowing the gap between native and web apps: Web Push Notifications” by Massimo Franciosa
Re-decentralising the web Permalink ¶
by Calum Ryan @calum_ryan
We'll see how the IndieWeb has a part to play in re-decentralising the web: making the case for less dependence on centralised services like Facebook and Twitter without necessarily abandoning them altogether. We'll discuss practical ways forward to achieve this not only as individuals but as a community broadening awareness and inclusion beyond the tech bubble. Plus a look at the latest W3C specifications including Webmentions and Micropub.
