Re: Now on your watch

Interesting. Something else to learn. I see they are using aria-label attributes on input fields to provide additional assistance – pretty smart. We could implement some of that fairly quickly in the default theme.

Re: Now on your watch

I suspect they’ll publish a blog post over at webkit.org soon with more details. But mostly it doesn’t seem difficult to handle.

Anyone up for editing a 5000 words article at that size? :-)

Re: Now on your watch

Probably fine for the public side theme. Can’t see much value in making the admin side work on a watch. I may get an Apple Watch in due course and play around with it and Textpattern though just out of curiosity.

That “5000 words article editing” was of course not soooo serious; but I don’t know, maybe things like an editor gets a notification from an author that an article is ready for pushing live (just one small action), or notifications about moderated comments or the like.

Agree though that the front-end theme is more important in this case.

Ethan Marcotte has some round-up of links (scroll down to the update).

One thing I had missed during the video: the importance of itemprop attributes and reader mode for long articles.

Why not ? Writing or editing articles works very well (I’ve done it quite often). Managing content is fine (uploading images, adding / editing meta data …). It is a bit harder to do templating (angular brackets – < and > – are still more difficult to type). Granted a laptop or desktop is more easy.

…but think of how you’d look dictating a 5000 words article into a watch in the first place.

What about a 24,000 words one? www.neme.org/texts/creativity-and-other-fundamentalisms
