In Which A Book Lexicon is Born
Hi everyone, We recently held a sync to discuss creating a shared book lexicon for the Atmosphere Protocol. I’ve shared the full recording (thanks Ronen!) and notes from the meeting here: Fathom with some early notes here: https://app.notion.com/p/Book-Lexicon-Session-1-211b2b43aabb8007b098d063972ca58c (also do we have a ATProto version of Notion yet?)

Taxonomy for ATmospheric Lexicon and App Directories
I kept going to pull quotes but just like, all of this. lol Something really basic like a taxonomy of concepts has the potential to skew heavily social, because at a technical level there’s almost nothing to it: you have an identity with some labels (synonyms, language-tagged strings—not sure how those’ll be implemented), you might have a definition, and then you have a handful of semantic relations, and the concept scheme class to yoke them together. (Again, I’m using SKOS as a template for th...

ATmosphere technology to support organizing and activism
I’m working on a post about anti-surveillance organizing and activism on decentralized social networks, and one of the points I’m going to make is that the ATmosphere offers a lot of Innovative and very useful functionality for organizers that doesn’t exist on centralized social networks today, and complements decentralized implementations of classic social network activism tools like blogs, newsletters, microblogging, live-streaming, etc. Here’s some of the examples I have so far … custom f...

The Open Social Web generally rotates to these discussions: 10 Friendly name of the network (ATmosphere vs Bluesky; Fediverse vs Mastodon®) 20 Branding (ATmosphere vs Atmosphere/atmosphere; Fediverse vs fediverse) 30 AI / LLM 40 Twitter / X 50 Meta 60 ActivityPub vs ATProto 70 Moderation 80 Goto 10
Just came across @semble.so and am very excited! It’s like a way of having personal knowledge bases (think Notion/Obsidian) that are connected into a broader social network. So curative action - classification, collation - can shift from individual to a collective/social sense-making.

the community knowledge garden has long tables, not tall fences ;) come plant some seeds, harvest some produce, till the soil, or simply sit back and watch the bees pollinate. Our collective attention is an ecological system, let's tend to it that way 🐝🌼🌱🍄🍃
