I decided to declare POAP2RSS officially launched. It seemed fitting for Independence Day!

How do you celebrate creating a service to make POAP activity available in RSS? You make a POAP of course! Now drop β€” POAP2RSS Created! πŸ’₯

Circular badge for POAP2RSS dated July 4 2025, featuring an RSS icon, a POAP award ribbon, and colorful fireworks on a dark navy background.

I cleaned up the RSS items that POAP2RSS outputs this morning. I decided to remove the titles on the items and add the POAP images which makes it great for adding to a micro.blog timeline. Now I can share my POAP claims automatically!

I’ve created my first project using AI to write nearly all of the code with me!

Introducing POAP2RSS!

For years I’ve wanted to get updates for POAP events and users in RSS. Now with the help of AI I’ve created it!

Still cleaning to do. Check out the code on Github.

I’ve supported the Electronic Frontier Foundation for over twenty years. I am excited to have this 35th anniversary coin, number 0061, as a keepsake. If only they did POAPs. 🀩

“Working to ensure that technology supports freedom, justice, and innovation for all people.”

In 2023 I shared Archimedes’ famous line:

Give me a place to stand, and a lever long enough, and I will move the world.

At the time, I suggested the real “threat” to capitalism isn’t socialism or communism but is instead technology itself.

With AI, that lever just got a lot longer.
