My relationship with the Social Web is a bit of a rollercoaster, it goes up and down and up and down 🎢

At the minute, we're up, in a big way. I dare say we might stay here with everything we're building at @newsmast, the leadership of @mellifluousbox, and the work @samvie and others are doing in the EU.

Let's keep it up!

The future of hope on the Social Web

Things are changing on the Social Web. Now is the time to start dreaming. For a long time, many of us have understood the potential of the Social Web. But, I think it's fair to say, there are also dark times, hopeless times.
