Related: we are doing a holiday giveaway. Anyone on Micro.blog can gift a 3-month subscription to a friend or family member. We are all friends here, right? Let me know if you'd like me to gift one to you. [email protected]
We’ve extended our holiday giveaway through this weekend. If you invite someone to Micro.blog, they’ll get 3 free months of blog hosting.

Checking in over here. I've been following Mastodon folks via my Micro.blog account, and the integration is going well. Now, if I could get people to switch to following my Micro.blog posts, Indieweb nirvana would be achieved. Search for @ jean @ micro. welltempered . net (without spaces)

My word for 2019 is Grace, and yesterday was devoted to Grace Slick, to give you an idea of what you'd be subscribing to.

Happy Boxing Day! I'm testing something so I started following this Mastodon account from Micro.blog, where I'm @ jean @ micro.welltempered.net and I hope I don't fall into a black hole of infinite social media reply recursion.

It's a small experiment but successful so far. I'm using my Micro.blog account to follow and reply without using a separate Mastodon account or app. Open standards ftw!

To follow using Mastodon, you have to search to find me: (at) jean (at) micro.welltempered.net. (I'm not using zeppelin dot flights as my primary Mastodon presence while I experiment with this integrated option.)

I'm switching my Mastodon activities to @ jean @ micro.welltempered.net, my Micro.blog user ID. I'm following Mastodon users via the Micro.blog timeline, and have turned off cross-posting from Micro.blog to this zeppelin.flights instance. This account will be inactive at least temporarily, so I can test whether I like using my own Micro.blog account for Mastodon.

tl;dr Follow @ jean @ micro.welltempered.net.

[Spaces in user names because otherwise the "jean" name defaults to zeppelin flights.]

Ada was spayed today, a recommended procedure to avoid future health issues. The vet was concerned because she was really slow to recover appetite and normal body temp after surgery, but she is eating her hay and that’s what you want to see.
The Kids Are Alright, the film that confirmed me as a huge fan of The Who when it was released in 1979, is on Amazon Prime now. I really enjoy rock documentaries like this. 🇬🇧 🎸 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079400/

Apple’s Entrepreneur Camp For Women is a bold move that I am excited about. If your app company has a woman founder, co-founder, or CEO, you could be eligible for hands-on training, ongoing support and tickets to WWDC. https://developer.apple.com/entrepreneur-camp/

Guinea pigs restored to their rightful place in the main room of the house. I missed them. They missed proximity to the fridge.
