Discovery

[EdwardHinkle]

There should be a "content discovery" section. This issue is a way to brainstorm ways to get content into that section.

Micro.blog Discovery Feeds

Micro.blog's Discover Feeds is a great place. Attribution is key here, and I should make sure it calls out that it's from the Micro.blog community and link to Micro.blog for more info at the top of the feeds. Hopefully this encourages more people to set up an account there and in the mean time allows people to see some interesting content.

IndieWeb Stream

The IndieWeb Stream planet, follows a bunch of IndieWeb related people and includes posts of theirs that refer to the IndieWeb.

IndieWeb News

The IndieWeb News planet is specifically about IndieWeb topics that people have syndicated there, rather than the IndieWeb Stream that just picks up items itself.

IndieWeb XYZ

This is an area with some random topics, it is meant to be like reddit. The one challenge with this service is people send it bookmarks, so I'll have to figure out if the display is good enough. There are a couple options: 1) Display the "Most recent" feed (https://indieweb.xyz/en) or 2) Display a list of potential "subs" underneath the IndieWeb XYZ header and then when you click on a sub I've included, you can see a list of the posts like for example (https://indieweb.xyz/en/bookclub)

Custom Planet

At some point I could try to create a planet that follows various feeds for some different topics.

Blog Search Engine

Part of discovery is searching a topic. I could try to build a blog search engine inspired by some of Zegnat's work at a recent IWC, I could try to utilize the custom Google Search that snarfed created.
