My WebLog is now my WebHome

…which means that we have finally started testing first prototypes of what’s destined to become the beginning of Open Social Web! Every blog, social profile and personal site should be connected into a network of WebHomes. Open, decentralised and free (as in freedom).

    Step 4 on http://www.webhome.org/software the file in the zip has no file extenstion. If you give it .php it tells you plugin has no header information. If you try and install with out adding .php it just says failed to install in wordpress plugins.

    Is this something i should ask Alex About as i see it as alot of his code in the file ?

    Also on webhome.org why wouldnt i be able to sign in with my OpenID. Is that not the hole idea of this project, to be able to use one (uno) id for everthing now ?

    Alex will reply regarding the files.

    As for wehome.org, we’ve just installed vanilla-forum, but you’re right it should support OpenID, we’ll figure it out ASAP.

    Thanks for the reply. If and when i get webhome installed i would be happy to donate some of my time and server to help test it out. (without all the cry babyness) seen elsewhere about this project.

    @Jason
    Filename has .tgz file extension, but it looks like you have difficulties with this file, so we will prepare .zip file too ASAP.

    Try to get .zip file here – http://www.webhome.org/software, I have already replaced it. I’m sure you will not have any problems with .zip file.

    BTW: Becoming like to login with alextrofimov.com to other sites :) instead of new login/password every time :)

    Thanks Alex
    Thats seems to have fixed the problem. I see many files in the .zip now. I will install it here in a minute and let you know if any problems come up.
