“When you look at the web, the next thing it really needs is a little bit of structure.” Folks have been saying this for years, but @spolsky & co are creating an open protocol called Block to try and make it a reality. WordPress support is key. by @rwwmike thenewstack.io/joel-spolsky-o…
What’s a way we can make it so that the web can be better structured, in a way that’s actually easier to write for a web developer than if they had left out the structure in the first place? thenewstack.io/joel-spolsky-o…
@spolsky @WordPress @matias_ventura Maybe we can combine efforts?

@codinghorror @spolsky I used your weekly calls for learning English. Thanks a lot for publishing those back then. It was also a huge leap forward in user experience from websites like experts exchange and various forms.

@rbieber @codeslubber @WordPress @BeaverBuilder @spolsky But, in spite of all that, I’d sure like to be able to plug off-the-shelf widgets into Wordpress and have a marketplace of interesting plug-in widgets. He’s talking about wordpress, not CORBA.
@codeslubber @WordPress @BeaverBuilder @spolsky Standardization. The parts themselves may be unique internally, but all the connections are standard sizes, so you can easily mix and match different manufacturer’s gear together. We need uniform pipes, I think.

@spolsky OLE for the web! What can possibly go wrong!? In all seriousness, this seems well thought out, and I wish it the best of luck.
@spolsky Very nice! Have you heard of Microsoft’s adaptive cards initiative: adaptivecards.io/samples/ There seem to be similarities.
@spolsky This seems generally impressive. For application developers building on this protocol and creating new types of blocks, what sorts of future facing limitations will they need to bear in mind? I'd love to see a discussion and limitations section.
