A content addressable base architecture upon which to build interlocking, overlapping public/private information spheres is, in my opinion, one of the most critical infrastructure projects of our time.

Camlistore http://camlistore.org/ is the most advanced software of this genre that I have seen. I hope that it may serve as a foundation for a truly open and distributed network of "social" data such as "likes" and "circles", as well as and many other types of content nodes and relationships between them.

Brad Fitzpatrick, chief instigator of Calimstore recently described it thus:

Think of it as a universe where everything is content-addressable and everybody has their own personal, private repo of all their data (files, content, likes, bookmarks, whatever) and they can search their own stuff, or selectively re-share it out to friends. People can use hosted servers or run their own, an

An Architecture for a Distributed Open Web

Nodes and Edges

Every digital resource can be considered a node. You should be able to ask for a node (via HTTP, git, etc.) either by its content identifier, or by a friendly URL-style identifier.

The relationships between nodes can be mapped as graph edges comprised of subject-predicate-object triples. There are mature tools for working with data in this format, such as RDF and SPARQL.

An Open Source Budget for the Federated Social Web

This budget is designed to answer the question, "If you had up to 100 million dollars that you wanted to donate to creating the greater open social web, as the logical next step after today's proprietary data silos, how would you divide it?"

This document is created intentionally as a straw man -- though necessarily incomplete and surely flawed in many ways, it is intended to at least stimulate debate and further ideas. If you wish to contribute, please fork this proposal, changing it in any way you see fit to create a better version.

• $5-25M - Federated Social Web: distributed autonomous social network (filter: Evan Prodromou)
• $25-50M - Planetwork / N2N

Question:

We are in the testing stage with a product that is an app so we are not shipping, after purchase it will be available electronically for the customer.

At checkout when I enter my address and select check box for use as Billing address also, then I get an error message that says something like, "cannot ship to selected location." How do I proceed?

Thank you

I think GitHub is a great platform to explore for decentralized, collaborative research and writing -- especially when paired with http://prose.io.

I put together a Collaborating Like a Hacker guide to GitHub (for non-geeks) -- https://github.com/harlantwood/The_Project/blob/master/Collaborating-Like-a-Hacker.markdown.

If you want to copy Creative Commons licensed content into GitHub, see http://www.forkthecommons.org (in alpha) -- which I created as part of the http://enlightenedstructure.org/Software_Zero project. This "fork" part is working well at alpha level, feedback welcome. The next logical components to tackle, IMO, are diff and merge. Friendly. Think of an interface like prose.io, but with a 2-pane diff/merge interface.
