Has completed her migration of Hack Education. And her personal blog Audrey Watters. To a Jekyll based mode of operation. Read her own thoughts about the new found freedom Jekyll is giving her over her. Content, data, workflow and the publishing of her projects—she is pretty excited.

Kin Lane: Making Sense At The100K Level: Twitter, Github, And Google Groups

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/02/making-sense-at-the100k-level-twitter.html

Monday, February 23, 2015. Making Sense At The100K Level: Twitter, Github, And Google Groups. I try to make sense of which companies are doing interesting things in the API space, and the interesting technologies that are done by these companies, that sometimes take on a life of their own. The thing I wrestle with with constantly, is how do you actually do this? And the Swagger Github account. Just a side rant from the day. This is not a critique of the Swagger community, just an outside view on the ...

Kin Lane: Cybersecurity, Bad Behavior, and The US Leading By Example

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/01/cybersecurity-bad-behavior-and-us.html

Tuesday, January 27, 2015. Cybersecurity, Bad Behavior, and The US Leading By Example. As I listened to the the State of the Union speech the other day, and stewed on the topic for a few days, I can’t help but see the future of our nations cybersecurity policy through the same lens as I view our historic foreign policy. In my opinion, we’ve spent many years behaving very badly around the world, resulting in very many people who do not like us. From http:/ ift.tt/1uZSQyK. Posted by Kin Lane. I am a progra...

Kin Lane: An Archive.org For Email Newsletters Using Context.io

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/02/an-archiveorg-for-email-newsletters.html

Friday, February 6, 2015. An Archive.org For Email Newsletters Using Context.io. I’m not going to beat around the bush on this idea, it just needs to get done, and I just don’t have the time. We need an archive.org for email newsletters. I cannot keep up with the amount of newsletters flowing into my inbox, but I do need to be able to access this layer, as I have the bandwidth available to process. Using Context.io. A specific bill in the current Congress -. Receive an email when there are updates to a s...

Kin Lane: The Rebooting Of WordPress With Just Page, Blog, Image, Link, and Comment APIs

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-rebooting-of-wordpress-with-just.html

Tuesday, January 6, 2015. The Rebooting Of WordPress With Just Page, Blog, Image, Link, and Comment APIs. Even though I had moved my blog(s) from WordPress three years ago, there was still some serious WordPress residue on everything. Many earlier blog posts have very WordPress-esque HTML, and the graphical template I used was originally a WordPress theme, so there was HTML, comments, and many other fingerprints of the early WP template in there. However let’s imagine you could! Then let the ecosystem bu...

Kin Lane: Micro Attempts At Being The Change I Want To See in Government

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/07/micro-attempts-at-being-change-i-want.html

Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Micro Attempts At Being The Change I Want To See in Government. As I worked to understand the agencies that power our federal government. I quickly realized, I needed a logo for each of the 246 federal agencies- something that didn't exist. I could find many on Wikipedia, and Google for the others, but there was no single source of logos for federal agencies- even at the Federal Government Directory API from USA.gov. Unacceptable, I created my own, and published to Github. Now I...

Kin Lane: Why Are You So Hard To Get A Hold Of?

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/01/why-are-you-so-hard-to-get-hold-of.html

Wednesday, January 28, 2015. Why Are You So Hard To Get A Hold Of? This is another post in my ongoing series of regular responses I give to people. Meaning when I get asked something so much, I craft blog posts that live on kinlane.com, and I reply to emails, tweets, etc. with a quick link to my standardized responses. One I get less frequently, but still enough to warrant a response to, “why are you so hard to get a hold of? From http:/ ift.tt/1tvcNME. Posted by Kin Lane. I am a programmer and entrepren...

Kin Lane: Use Of APIs By Regulators To Audit Telco Behavior

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/07/use-of-apis-by-regulators-to-audit.html

Friday, July 3, 2015. Use Of APIs By Regulators To Audit Telco Behavior. I keep reading stories about federal regulators investigating, and issuing fines to telcos like AT&T paying $105 million for unauthorized charges on customer bills. And Verizon and Sprint to pay $158 million for cramming charges on customers' bills. Maybe I am biased (I am), but I can't help think about the potential for APIs, and OAuth to help in this situation. From http:/ ift.tt/1H5wvCf. Posted by Kin Lane. I am a programmer and ...

Kin Lane: When Will My Router Have Docker Containers By Default?

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/01/when-will-my-router-have-docker.html

Wednesday, January 21, 2015. When Will My Router Have Docker Containers By Default? This is something I’m working on building manually, but when will the wireless router for my home or business have Docker container support by default? I want to be able to deploy applications, and APIs either publicly or privately right on my own doorway to the Internet. I could envision webhooks management, and other Internet of Things for household automation living in this local, containerized, layer of our online wor...

Kin Lane: A Better Understanding When It Comes To Licensing Of Data Served Up Through APIs

http://kinlane.blogspot.com/2015/06/a-better-understanding-when-it-comes-to.html

Friday, June 19, 2015. A Better Understanding When It Comes To Licensing Of Data Served Up Through APIs. Through my work on API Evangelist. And heavy reliance on Github, I have a pretty good handle on the licensing of code involved with APIs- I recommend following Githubs advice. And the creation of API Commons. For three licensing options for open data:. Public Domain Dedication and License (PDDL). Mdash; The PDDL places the data(base) in the public domain (waiving all rights). The guidance from Open Da...
