Heading to the airport to fly down to SFO. Start of my first [[DWeb Camp]] experience, including facilitating the unconference-style [[Emergent Day]].

I should probably use some tags #DWebCamp or #DWebCamp2024 I’ll see about making a feed.
Made it to the @archive.org building. Lovely dinner and a tour that I’ll write up later. Now, rest, and tomorrow we drive to Camp Navarro.
Breakfast sandwich & a cappuccino at Joy’s Place in downtown SF, which has an Instagram friendly green wall. Pretty good!
For #DWebCamp I set up a HedgeDoc instance. It’s meant to be a default spot for notes, sharing, & collaboration. I just finished Robin Sloan’s Sourdough, so I made a /books page dweb.camp/books On theme for some of the d-food topics at camp this year.
HedgeDoc 1.x has a number of down sides — root page isn’t customizable, can’t easily show lists of all notes, very much a centralized app (although open source & self-hosted). But it’s very solid for synchronous, collaborative markdown editing. #DWebCamp
I talked to the #DWebCamp network team a bit last night. It’s only a 50Mbps back haul network from camp, so it’s best if things run locally, on the local wifi network. So…I might try and dump the database and install locally.
Stopped in Boonville. BLT + sweet potato fries + cappuccino + Yerba mate from Boonville General Store Cafe Bakery Deli omaps.app/8jmo6metzx/B... And cool yarn paintings! #DWebCamp

Helped setup camp with volunteers, did a walk through of the grounds with Wendy, and woke up early today. A full build day today and we welcome everyone tomorrow afternoon. #DWebCamp
So this is Nitro Coffee which is heated and will be on tap all day. I like this invention. #DWebCamp
Bacon! And happy breakfast people! #DWebCamp
A day of setup. I helped out with Redwood Cathedral and Tea Tent. Checking sightlines and signage as you come into Redwood.
Did a test decoration of my notebook for the event. Secret animal sticker! Find your animal friends at the event. And amazing “stamp” stickers by Ira! #DWebCamp
Opening ceremony practice run through. Mai and @iandavis.id in the amphitheater. #DWebCamp
Good morning! #DWebCamp begins today, with the rest of attendees joining us from 2pm today.
The attendees arrive! Registration begins. Met Spencer who is at The Embassy and he might be able to host the @causalislands.com talk next Tuesday lu.ma/zmua2lsj
LX suggested that our notebooks might be considered commonplace books en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonp... #DWebCamp

Yesterday: Opening ceremonies, +400 people in camp, back to my cabin at midnight because of late night chatting - Georgism & Pawnbroker 3.0. Friends old & new over breakfast. Thanks for letting me know if you came to #DWebCamp because of me talking about it!

I met Norm from USBCLUB usb.club ! (Groot, the emotional support branch, not pictured) We should do more with this with #DWebCamp crews
