@simeonGriggs As the proud owner of a similarly over-engineered personal website (Sanity+11ty), I applaud this post. Also: is that an Open Graph preview I spy? or is that "OG" in a more ... colloquial sense?

@karenmcgrane Thanks, @karenmcgrane — that means a lot to me coming from you!

@carriehd Thanks @carriehd!

@chrisfahey .@GinnyRedish's _Letting Go of the Words_ is a great resource for designing online experiences as one would a conversation. After that, I'd say cozy up to some semantic HTML (though that alone can only get you to "correct," not "meaningful")

Getting excited for my panel with @andybywire, @valswisher & @JesiahM at Structured Content next week! You can still register (if you want to attend locally but can't swing the cost, hit me up).

@namedgraph Good question, @namedgraph — funny enough, the full diagram actually _does_ have something in that space (it's a structured content design workflow element — https://t.co/6FbmzTTFxc). That said, it's all iterative, so another resident for that space could be found!

@datao @kvistgaard @KGConference Thank, @kvistgaard — I'm glad you enjoyed it!

@aaranged @KGConference Thanks @aaranged!

Many CMSes offer only ad hoc (if any) support for standards-compliant taxonomy management. This seemed like a miss to me, so I created a SKOS-compliant taxonomy management plugin for my fav, https://t.co/8scTYvPkAa: https://t.co/9QAzUzfmYf Feedback (& pull requests) welcome!

[Andy Fitzgerald @andybywire]

Also: I can see you've done some, uh, "redecorating" since I've been gone. This should be fun.

Hey Twitter! Long time no see. Live conferences are back, so so am I. And I’m super excited about this one: I’ll be speaking about Boutique Knowledge Graphs at @KGConference 2022 next week. In person in NYC and online everywhere. Please do join if you can: https://t.co/WiTCQ3jud4

@fedebadaloni Grazie mille Federico!

[Andy Fitzgerald @andybywire]

@jeffmacintyre Thanks so much for sharing, @jeffmacintyre! (TBD if I'm ready to give Twitter back some of my attention — it's _so_ hard on my sanity!)

[Andy Fitzgerald @andybywire]

@undrstndng Thanks so much for sharing, @undrstndng — you all are definitely an inspiration for my pursuit of clarity!

[Andy Fitzgerald @andybywire]

@brownorama @theiaconf Thanks for the great conversation @brownorama!

[Dan Brown (he/him) 👓 @brownorama]

Ever since I saw @andybywire speak at @theiaconf about content management, I knew I wanted to have a deeper IA conversation with him.

If you're fascinated by the distinction between carbon-based and silicon-based beings, do not miss this interview!

@TheodoraPetkova @NovasTaylor @KGConference @IKEA Ha! Great meme — it's fun to think how that little two-sided wrench fits into the workflow.

@LarrySwanson @jarango @IamFelipe @sanity_io @eaton ... (though once you've done that, wiring up your own search with something like Lunr feels easy)
