Mike Caulfield: Wikity, One Year Later. The shortest explanation of Wikity I can provide is this: Wikity is social bookmarks, wikified. (Social Bookmarking) (more)

Decentraland Introduces a Wearables Editor: Creating and Selling Avatar Fashion on the Blockchain. If Second Life has taught us nothing else during the 18 years of its existence, it is this: that people are willing to invest considerable amounts of time and money on avatar customization. In some worlds like VRChat, the customization applies to the entire avatar; in others, like Sinespace, Second Life and Sansar, you can have dressable, human(oid) avatars, where you can mix and match clothing you purchase from content creators to make your own signature look.

Gavin Wood: Less-techy: What is Web 3.0? Organisations and governments routinely attempt to stretch and overstep their authority. Thus we realise that entrusting our information to organisations in general is a fundamentally broken model. (more)

Cortex Futura: Don't Fiddle With Your Note-Taking System. People in the PKM space often chuckle a bit at people who discover a new app every couple of weeks and switch their note-taking over. The folk wisdom is that these people are wasting their time, their sense of "productivity" is false, that fiddling with their system is a hobby and not serious work. Like most folk wisdom there's a kernel of truth, grown into a thicket of nonsense. (more)
Rosenstein dropped out of a graduate program in computer science at Stanford in 2004 to join Google as a product manager.[5] At Google, Rosenstein led projects in Google's communication and collaboration division. His projects initially included Google Page Creator, the precursor to Google Sites, and a project internally codenamed “Platypus,” which eventually became Google Drive.[6] He also invented and wrote the original prototype for GMail Chat [7] and many of the features in Google’s rich text editor.

Gordon Brander: Hypertext Montage. Thoughts, also, resist the single linear narrative. They exist as something more like a hyperdimensional cloud of associations. (more)
Tom Critchlow: Building a digital garden. The TL;DR is that I built a personal wiki out of files and folders and a few templates in Jekyll hosted on Github Pages. If you want to head straight to the wiki head here: http://tomcritchlow.com/wiki/. (more)
