Mastodon, the blogging platform

I want Mastodon to take off as a blogging platform. That means hooking it up to existing blog platforms. I want our world to connect to theirs.

I'm lucky to have bet on WordPress, so my product gets the connection to Mastodon for free.

But the web is bigger than any product. The web is where new stuff gets developed. This is how we build, how we get back on track.

Somehow we need to get a simple bridge that lets all blog content flow to Mastodon. That's the goal.

I just wrote a couple of posts where this became clear to me.

Who has the code and expertise to create a simple interface from the outside world to Mastodon?

The interface doesn't have to be RSS. But it has to be maximally simple, and it has to cover the basic features of blogs that Mastodon supports. But it doesn't have to cover all the features. Start with posting. That's where it all begins.
