I love going to the European meetings of the Homebrew Website Club because I can do it during my lunch and then get back to work.

One of the key things that I enjoyed was the talk about linking to libre.fm. I’m excited by the possibility of sharing what music that I’m listening to with others but not sure about having to maintain another system to connect to my blog. Thus far, I’ve been using Robb’s Lantern website to get information to share media online.

Another thing that we discussed is the desire/need to make websites accessible. Mark Sutherland mentioned that he was using WAVE and I mentioned that I was using ARC. I was kind of embarrassed to say I used the tool just to run it again and find a number of issues with my site.

There was also a small discussion about hidden information on the website. I’ve been trying to get authorship as defined on the indieweb site to work correctly. I’ve since went back to my old way of having the data there but hidden with css.

Dodgeball is one of my favorite movies and Vince Vaughn has been a lot of movies that I've enjoyed over the years. That being said, it can be hard to watch him for an entire season unless you like that kind of humor. Thankfully, this show has a wonderful array of additional characters that reel you in.

To be honest, I didn’t get a chance to check this out when it first came out and it wasn’t on my list of things to checkout. Silo was supposed to be my next show but I couldn’t bring myself to watch something so dystopic. So, I chose this one because I wanted a mix of crime story and comedy, and I’m very happy that I did.

All in all, this is very well executed detective story that shows that Apple TV really know what they are doing…

I just wish more people would watch it.

Overview

A detective turned restaurant inspector in Southern Florida is pulled into a world of greed and corruption after a tourist finds a severed arm while fishing. And yes, there's a monkey.

I’ve been reading John’s posts for over a year now and I’ve enjoyed his writing and the links that he’s curated on his site.
