Good Bye Storify
Today we will continue the curation of Gutenberg posts from around the web and test Gutenberg Embed blocks in real life. I have been using Gutenberg for content production on two live sites and every time i have to go back to the classic editor I briefly grinch. Gutenberg is a wonderful way to publish on the web.
From June 2017 to Jan 23, 2018, I posted 53 updates to Storify, hundreds of tweets, blog posts, videos and photos all around the development of Gutenberg. We will bring all of them over to this site before Storify shuts its doors this Spring.
And now some Gutenberg News

Will probably be sharing a blog post next week with lots of thoughts.
The buzz around Gutenberg really picked up in the last few weeks.

WooCommerce introduced how they envision product pages and product details to look with Gutenberg.
Imagine a predefined “Product” Template, assigned to the Product post type and loaded by default when you add a new product. Details such as featured image, product title, description, and price are new Gutenberg Blocks. Just fill in the blanks. https://t.co/fCNe8tjrKN

Matias Ventura, co-lead developer for Gutenberg, shows us how to use "shortcodes" blocks.
More #Gutenberg pasting flow — converting "shortcodes" when a block exists, like a gallery, and falling to the "shortcode" block when it doesn't. pic.twitter.com/pPUcqK0ohw
