Moved

I've just moved to the Amazon in Brazil. I suffer from anemic bandwidth, so currently I am a bit handicapped.

To Do

multilingual wiki

start brainstorming about best structure for multilingual wiki

• sisterwiki structure:
  • en.host.com/wiki/page <-> pt.wiki.host.com/wiki/page
  • one-to-one correspondence among languages via subdomains

- requires administrator to create subdomain

+ symmetric and non-biased

+ subpage organization permitted

vs.

• subpage structure:
  • single domain using subpages: host.com/wiki/page <-> host.com/wiki/page/pt
  • dominated by English hub as default

+ does not require administrator to create language subdomains

- ugly structure with one language at top of hierarchy

- subpage organization not permitted

hosting

• Need a place to host SMW+ - preferably in the southern hemisphere South America (aside from poor bandwidth in northern Brazil, latency to NZ is a problem).
• Or use Osirus?
• Or what is the status of Diaspora?

best practices: user page, user talk

My user/talk pages are becoming disorganized and lack direction or standardization. What's the best practice for these pages? seems to me:

• user page (my page): what I have to say about myself and what I'm doing
• user talk: discussions and interactions between myself and other users.

any comments?

The Sovereign Individual book covers a lot of the foundations of the change to come, my interpretation is that this is about the days of centralisation coming to an end and the new distributed bottom-up paradigm coming about... One of the biggest breakthrough's for this new paradigm to really take off is that we need a secure p2p payment system which is an open standard. There's some notes on that at Currency and some at Human Ecology --nad 00:58, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
