I thought this might be of interest to people on the NB and the Dorkbot lists.

 

Cheers,

Hi Mitch,

We met shortly at HAR, where I attended your talk on hacker spaces. I  
was giving a talk on distributed social networks there.

I thought you and the Bay Area Hacker Spaces might be interested to  
know that we are organising a Social Web Camp that will be taking  
place on Santa Clara on November 2nd.

[[
Imagine a world where everybody could participate easily in a  
distributed yet secure social web. In such a world every individual  
will control their own information, and every business could enter  
into a conversation with customers, researchers, government agencies  
and partners as easily as they can now start a conversation with  
someone on Facebook. What is needed to go in the direction of The  
Internet of Subjects Manifesto? What existing technologies can we  
build on? What is missing? What could the W3C contribute? What could  
others do?

I will be presenting a simple solution using only existing web  
standards, that is easy to implement and that enables this. This would  
allow all the hacker spaces to create together a distributed social  
network for example.

Could you forward this to any people you think it might interest, and  
ask them to forward it too, tweet about it, or whatever is needed to  
get the message out? :-)

	Thanks in advance,

		Henry

PS. I'll be over the whole of November in the Bay Area, and look  
forward to coming to any of the hacker spaces, and talking on this  
subject too, and perhaps even get some implementations working.
