We updated our essay on revitalizing classified ads in local publications with a software specification in development called flohmarkt that offers an open-source backbone for want ads, as well as a mechanism for running classifieds from neighboring publications.

Thanks @killick @smallcircles for ideas and tip

Is there any #Fediverse or #ActivityPub development underway for classified advertising?

I've proposed reviving #WantAds as a revenue source for #LocalNewsMedia, particularly as online commerce becomes difficult for small business and riskier for customers. See the white paper on TechNewsLit.com: https://technewslit.com/explores/explores20240511.html

The Fediverse seems a good fit for #ClassifiedAds as an open-source backbone and ability to federate into regional networks.

Ideas welcome.

About a month ago, I photo'd a pileated woodpecker for the first time, in Banneker Park a few miles from our home. Today, I saw one of those critters in our backyard. This is the male of the species, noted by the red stripe near the beak.
