Small Web: computer science colloquium at University of Groningen
Recording1 of the live stream of a computer science colloquium on the Small Web I presented at the University of Groningen on June 11th, 2024. (Transcript)
Update: I was going back and forth between calling the personal social network Place and Yarn. In the talk, I refer to it as Yarn. As I’ve been working more on it, I’ve reverted to its original name, Place.
Two weeks ago, I presented a computer science colloquium on the Small Web at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands to post grad students and professors.
In the talk, I take you through what the Small Web is and the current state of Kitten, Domain, and Yarn Place, showing you how to:
-
Set up a Small Web place at your server and your own domain in roughly ten seconds.
-
Communicate privately using end-to-end encryption between two Small Web nodes.
-
Use Kitten’s Streaming HTML workflow to easily make hypermedia-driven Small Web applications.

This is a recording of the live stream I recorded on my laptop using a webcam loaned to me by the department and the microphone on my in-ear headphones (so please don’t expect the same quality of image as in the videos I stream and record at my home studio).
Also, I don’t know exactly what was causing the jittery screen sharing video but I did go in and edit good quality transitions of all the slides (which, along with how long it took to edit the transcript/subtitles) is why I’m only just releasing the video. ↩︎
