Hi everybody,
I put a quick description of the Diaspora session on the wiki (I hope
this was the right thing to do). It currently reads like this:
==Distributed Social Networking With Diaspora==
Proposed by: yossarian
Number of people: 5-10
Duration: 60 mins
Required space: indoor /barn
Facilities: projector, outbound network access, an available wireless
lan in the barn
Description: To a greater extent than any other computer system in
history, Facebook has connected humanity with itself - and with a
ruthless surveillance-based business model. What alternatives exist?
People obviously want the connectedness and communications options which
social networks bring to the table, but are there ways to meet these
needs without a centralized system? We'll examine a few of these
political questions, and then dive into setting up our own "pod", part
of the Diaspora social networking system.
-----------------------
Is this what people are after? Any suggestions/different take on things
that would make it more interesting?
Greets,
yossarian
