End of day #1 with Known.  I'm quite pleased with the results.

Good Stuff

• brid.gy is awesome.  Having +1's, likes and comments consolidated is so nice.
• Webhooks!  I'm thinking of writing one to automatically archive pages to archive.org.
• PuSH appears to be fully working.  Again, could extend things there..
• Google+ renders images well.
• The editor saves drafts.
• Lightweight page editor should be useful.
• AMP support is there (add ?_t=amp to any page)  Some validation issues, but works.
• Real anchor tags and hyperlinks.  No more writing [1] [2] in posts with multiple links (like lynx)

Rough Edges

• The built-in Photo type doesn't send the permalink to Twitter, so now I have a weird post without context.  Flickr, Facebook working perfectly, might try another setting.
• I need to get to writing a Google+ outbound connector.  I'm doing those by hand now.
• TInyMCE sucks.  It has always sucked!  If only Medium would open source their editor.  At least markdown is an option.
• Looks like syndicated Google+ links are using profiles.google.com instead of plus.google.com.
• Some profile pics cloned from G+ are coming back with size 0.  This shows as broken images.
• Long status posts have extra long permalink URLs.
• Built-in analytics are weak.  Would rather avoid using GA for that.
• Limited import options.  Will need to convert Typepad export file to Wordpress format.
• Bulleted lists line-height is tight, tight, tight.

Overall I'm pretty happy and excited about getting more content in place.

And who knew that a post on SSL/TLS certs would be soooo exciting?
