At 1 pm Pacific (about 30 minutes from now), The State of the Micro.blog Platform will start, with @manton and @vincent. What’s new and what’s coming–hear all about it at Micro Camp. If you have questions, ask them in the camp chat or reply to this post. We’ll answer as many as we can.

Thanks for another super informative presentation about MarsEdit, @Miraz!

Slides, transcript, AppleScripts and more are here: miraz.me/2023/05/2…

@annahavron Edited the post as well. It should update without the period. Thanks for the heads up.

Tune in to Micro Camp to see @Miraz show you all the cool ways MarsEdit (developed by @danielpunkass) makes your microblogging life easier.

The next presentation comes from @Miraz: Take the Captain’s Chair of your Micro.Blog with the MarsEdit App for Mac: Time Travel, Replicators, Warp Speed and More

(Spoiler alert: Star Trek references 🖖 😉)

A license to MarsEdit is one of the door prizes, btw.

Thanks @mandaris for sharing your personal insights! 👏

A reminder: enter the door prize drawing! You’ll have to decide which prize you want to go for. 🎟️ 🎥 ☕️ 🍵 📝 🚀

We’ll announce the winners at the beginning of the closing community happy hour at 2 pm Pacific.

Starting in a few minutes: @mandaris ’s presentation Learning in Public: Creating A Micro.blog Theme As A Path To Personal Insight. Even if you have no ambition to create a blog theme, you will find the personal insights relatable. 🙂

Thanks so much @annahavron! Great presentation.

And that’s a wrap of Micro Camp Day 1. Thanks to everyone for watching, commenting, participating, and especially thanks for your patience with the technical hiccups.

We’ll start back up tomorrow at 9 am Pacific time, with presentations from @bitdepth, @annahavron, @mandaris, and @Miraz. 🏕️

@Ron @cygnoir Hmm. Other people are getting in. Copying the link directly from the Zoom: us02web.zoom.us/j/8928064...

@terrygrier There is a YouTube channel and a chat on Discourse. There will be a Zoom link for the community session, because that's an open discussion.

@jeffperry All the sessions will be recorded and posted, with the exception of the State of the Community discussion. We don't want people to feel pressure in an ad hoc discussion of community issues about being captured for posterity.

@prealpinux 😎 🏖️
