Button Sluts and Web Actions

Introducing the Concept of Web Actions
It’s been over a month now since IndieWeb Camp took place in Portland, OR.  Over the course of the weekend I was introduced to concepts and terminology new to me – like web intents, sharecropping, and the NASCAR idea – and I had the opportunity to brainstorm more freely than I typically get to on a normal day.

After learning about the concepts behind web intents, I was captivated by the idea of organizing basic website actions (like tweeting, emailing, hearting, likeing) into their root categories.  I was also inspired by the notion that we – as web creators – are often needlessly cluttering sites with ill-placed social media buttons and confusing action forms.
