Lacking a social network that leaves us:

1. owners of our own content,
2. managers of own privacy, and
3. just as capable of discovering the serendipities within our social graph.

We set forth to build an online network that:

1. decentralizes the control of content by placing it firmly with its
individual users,
2. enables us to connect conversations without compromises in
ownership through the realization of the semantic web,
3. strictly commits any return greater than our efforts toward the
relief and advancement of humanity at-large.

Thusly convicted, we begin and carry forward our work on Loudly, a
decentralized social network in the public domain.
