Links For You (9/15/2024)

Happy Half Way Through September… which isn’t a thing I guess, but, I’m just in awe at how much faster time goes in the fall compared to summer. With the kids in school, and activities, time just seems to fly by. In roughly two weeks I’ll (and my wife) will be in Vegas for the Adobe ColdFusion Summit. If you’ll be there too be sure to say hi. Before then I’ll be speaking online at the JavaScript Global Summit next week. All of these upcoming conferences is just enough to make me forget I got a rejection today. 😉 Lets focus on the positive, right, like some fun links for your enjoyment!

For my American readers, I hope you are able to enjoy a relaxing three day weekend. I’ve got big plans to do absolutely nothing and do quite a bit of it. My September is going to be busy so I’d like to try my best not to think about that for the next few days. Let’s get to the links! One Million Checkboxes – You Won’t Believe This… I use a note app to keep track of the links I want to share in these posts and generally, I share in a FIFO manner – the oldest added links first. But this… this link comes from a post shared recently on Mastodon and frankly was way too cool to put off. I don’t even want to tell you about this link, I just want... more →

Woot, welcome to football season! Ok, preseason, but I am beyond excited to watch my Saints play later today and, hopefully, look halfway decent. My wife and I are both big football fans and the start of the season is always a happy occasion. This past week I traveled to Atlanta to give a lab on Adobe’s Firefly Services APIs which went well, and I get to do it again next week in New York City. I hope your week goes well, and here are some interesting links for you to enjoy.

The past few weeks have been a bit crazy, although mostly crazy good. Since the last one of these posts, my family and I went on vacation in San Antonio for a few days, and currently, my wife and I are in New Orleans for a short break. Last night we went to the Postmodern Jukebox concert which was easily one of the most fun concerts I’ve been to. I’ll share one of their clips at the end, but let me just say that they were a real treat live. CSV for Eleventy First up is a great example of why I love Eleventy – its flexibility.

Hello from the incredibly hot Pacific Northwest. This week I discovered that not every part of the PNW looks like Seattle. I’m in Bend, Oregon, which is incredibly beautiful, but also just as hot as back home. On the flip side, the humidity is basically zero and the mornings and evenings are incredibly nice. My wife and I are up here for a few days as a quick break, and last night we saw a great concert featuring Ratboys, The Head and The Heart, and the Decembrists. Now to your links – enjoy!

Adding Social Share Links in Eleventy

One common feature of content sites (including this one), is links/buttons/etc to share a piece of content on social media. Typically this is Twitter, but many sites will include ways to share links on Facebook, LinkedIn, and more. A reader asked me a few days ago about how this could be done in Eleventy and I thought I’d share a quick example. Raymond Camden… more →
