@ricmac @blaine @redsage oh, wow. I really wish I’d been in closer contact with these guys fifteen years ago, when I first moved to the Bay.

I was deep into XMPP-pubsub at the time, while Blaine was pushing to decentralize Twitter with a similar protocol stack. It sounds like we’d have been intellectually simpatico.

Heck. Sounds like we’d get along today, too.
