!mustard on the galaxy tab… http://micro.jpope.org/attachment/10511
-
@jpope can I bother you?
-
But of course.
-
@jpope thank you. I have installed statusnet but don't know what to do now! LOL I can't seem to export my dents from identica or tell people

@jpope i moved.
-
Well, there isn’t any good way to move your dents over at the moment. The account backup doesn’t pull your whole history. @samatjain does
-
have a script to backup your whole history but, there isn’t a way to import those on another instance yet.
-
The main thing on your instance, is to make sure you have the OStatus plugin active. You will probably want to make sure the
-
‘fancy urls’ is active and working before subbing to people. What’s the URL to your instance?
-
@jpope where do I do that at?
-
@lstench It looks to me like you've already got fancy urls turned on. Your URLs don't have 'index.php' stuck in the middle.
-
@lstench Actually, everything looks good when looking at the version page. http://lydiastench.com/status/main/version
-
@lstench First thing, go into your admin page and make it 'invite-only' or you'll be buried with spambots in no time.
-
Looks like you have fancy URLs working just fine. Welcome to the wonderful world of owning your own social network. :)
-
@jpope okay seems I have fancy urls active.
-
@lstench You may want to look through some of the linked info here http://jpope.org/statusnetlinks
-
@jpope okay ostatus is enabled.
-
@lstench You’ll most likely want the daemons running to help with performance.
-
@jpope so what do I do from here?
-
@jpope I've never needed daemons actually. It was just a bunch of extra complexity for me
-
@jpope huh you lost me?
-
@lnxwalt280 will do.
-
You don't _need_ daemons, but it improves performance about 10 to 1 when posting. Worth the effort for me.
-
@gomerx hee-hee and it didn't cost a thing.
-
@lnxwalt280 done.
-
@lnxwalt280 so does that mean I have to invite everyone?
-
It means that only people you invite can join your instance. You don't have to invite anyone.
-
@jpope thank ye, bookmarked for later perusal.
-
You have to invite people to have accounts on your server. I doesn't afect who can subscribe.
-
@lnxwalt280 I am confused nevermind just saw @gomerx dent. can I still interact with identica? How? I 'm using identica now how 2 switch?

Really? Man, I found it barely usable without the daemons running. Would take 10 – 30 seconds to post a notice.
-
Well, you should be good to go. Lemme try subbing to you and we’ll see if it works.
-
You'll start subbing to people and replying to them, and they'll start subbing back.
-
You now have one follower. :)
-
You’ll need to subscribe to whoever you want too and hopefully, they’ll sub you back. ;)
-
See, I think the problem is normal people only post once every few minutes and can afford to wait. Only us obsessives need daemons. :)
-
@jpope Make that two subscribers.
-
2
-
You could be quite right. Maybe if I didn’t post 8000+ notices within three months I could have a lighter setup. :)
-
@jpope I can't seem to subscribe to anyone :(
-
What does it say when you try?
-
@lstench let me know when you get it sorted so I can subscribe :)
-
Worked for me. Try subscribing to http://lydiastench.com/status/lstench
-
@jpope what's my account id?
-
You'll need to get their profile url or thier account id in the form of user@domain and put that in your subscribe box
-
Nope. I'd run the daemons just to save myself 27 seconds a day. My server isn't doin much else.
-
@laurelrusswurm well you can subscribe. I just don't know how to subscribe to others yet!!! feeling very dumb right now. LOL!!
-
Go to your profile page. Click on the remote button (right side bar). For identi.ca people enter address as http://identi.ca/<user_name>

You'll get used to it. It's a bit tricky at first.
-
@gomerx I noticed that I have almost no offsite traffic without the daemons running.
-
Sometimes you have to keep trying to get it to go through. You can also subscribe using "<user_name>@identi.ca"
-
Looks like you figured it out. :)
-
@gomerx doesn't seem to be working :(
-
@gomerx got it!! How do I add you?
-
My profile is at http://dent.gomertronic.com/gomerx or @gomerx@dent.gomertronic.com
-
@gomerx so I can just use someones url?
-
you have to tell me where to subscribe... i'm talking to you on your identica account here :)
-
@laurelrusswurm i think it's this http://ur1.ca/872oh
-
Subscribed!
-
#lstench now you need to load an avatar :)
-
thank you!!
-

-
@lstench way cool that you have your own instance up and running!
-
@lstench you got ya own status running?
-
@laurelrusswurm yes it is :D. Need help making my blog look like something...
-
@m4nima1 yes sir!!
-
@lstench awesome. so you running it from ya home machine?
-
@m4nima1 nope paid hosting.
-
@lstench your blog looks like a blog (your posterious food photos are gorgeous... how about sharing photos & recipies of vegetarian dishes?
-
@lstench k. good stuff.
-
@laurelrusswurm I am thinking about it. I think I want mixture of stuff. Do I have to stick to one topic? Or can i jump between 3-4?
-
@m4nima1 thankie :D
-
You can do anything you like. Personal blogs can covers 3-4 things (or more) because we all have more than 1 interest.
-
@laurelrusswurm That's what I'm thinking that's why I decided to use my name as I couldn't think of a good domain name.
-
@lstench better to do it now than later :)
-
@laurelrusswurm true I have been owning it for years, just wasn't sure I want to use my name. KWIM but seems as if everyone knows it anyway.
-
@gomerx I often get timeouts when posting without the daemons.
-
@andyc you gotta watch those daemons. They'll stop the timeouts but steal your soul.
-
You’ve got 13 subscribers now, @lstench :-)
-
THat's true. And if you're not paying close attention you don't know what you're missing.
-
Is it just me or does everyone go ‘Dddd – eeeee – eee – mmmon – s’ in a scary, horror film voice when pronouncing ‘Daemons’ ?
-
I try not to pronounce it, because it's spelled funny and I get confused.
-
@gomerx LOL
