context

This article is a stub. You can help the IndieWeb wiki by expanding it with relevant information.

context is everything around and about something, typically the nearer the more relevant, such as the graphic design surrounding a post, information around a post like the reply-context for a reply or its longer thread and previous discussions on the subject, posts by an author (perhaps of the same type) before and after a particular post, or conditions around a post like location, weather, date, and time of day.

IndieWeb Examples

• Chris Aldrich has been using the Post Kinds Plugin to add reply-contexts to his site (especially for replies, bookmarks, reads, watches, listens) since ????-??-??. He uses the Simple Location plugin to frequently add weather and location related context to his posts since ????-??-??.

Silo Examples

• LiveJournal has functionality in their post entry for adding location, mood and listen data. see documentation at: https://www.livejournal.com/support/faq/32.html

It also has the ability to do custom mood themes.
