So I need to be eating my own dog food right? Yeah I didn’t get it either, but if you wish to understand it keep reading.

Take a look at the IndieWeb Camp and see what they are saying. They talk about eating you own dog food (selfdogfooding), and other such wonderful things, when it comes to the web and you. They speak about creating a centralized place for your data, that isn’t in a company made silo.

This is me offering up what I can do, which isn’t much, and offer it to the community. If you like using markdown and want to build a flat file based blog and note system online, then my offering will not be only for me.

Check out the details below if you are interested… More to come!

below is from the sample pages at the open source github repository.
