Entries for #p2p

I had dinner recently with Wes Felter while he was in Phoenix, and we got to talking about peer-to-peer technologies. It's been rattling around in my head ever since. Yesterday I was emailing with Wes and he suggested getting on #p2p-hackers on irc.openprojects.net.

I finally found an irc client for Mac OS X (Snak) and got on. While there I ran into Aaron Swartz, who in turn pointed me to the work he's doing in distributed information spaces (based on RDF-style tuples) in the Plex. Mmmmm, distributed RDF.


IM-less

Well, I am officially IM-less at work for the foreseeable future (and probably slightly beyond that). Our network guys are very security conscious and I don't fault them for it. The AIM protocol has been closed on the firewall.

So, I'm back to email, which in true internet fashion, seems so... slow. ;-)

In the evenings from home, however, I'll be on AIM, and probably #p2p-hackers as well. monkinetic or redmonk.
