Federating Social Networks

  • 1 Mar 08 17:00> 2 Mar 08 17:00
    Mediamatic Lab | Oosterdokskade 5 - 5th floor, Amsterdam (view on map) | T +31 (0) 20 638 9901 |

The technical and organizational challenges of portable social networks are daunting but the promises are great! Finally we'll be using one profile to interact with people and documents in a network of federated communities.

This is the follow-up event for the Federating Social Networks workshop (Dec. 2007). We will show progress on the roadmap that was layed out at the FSN workshop and determine what is still to be done. And there will be discussions and presentations, and work on getting implementations going.

Followup

I really liked the previous event. But unless there is some mailinglist/forum/whatever that I haven't signed up for yet, I haven't heard anything about it since. Has there been any progress?
