I created my very first location-based POAP. Our “Peanuts Tree” is a popular spot on Cannon Lake and you can now mint a POAP if you visit it. I’m going to place a QR code by it so visitors can get more info. Will anybody do it? I don’t know, but it is fun either way. See screen recording of mint.

I’m wondering what MCP endpoints I would like to have:

  • My blog
  • Weekly Thing
  • OmniFocus, that could be amazing
  • Manuals for stuff I own
  • My media library
  • My photo library
  • My house, or whatever that would mean
