@aral@adrianshort if independent thought, leading to new consensus, then fair enough. But the "indie" part needs to be temporary. -
@rgarner Independence and the individual are at the _heart_ of Indie Tech. Nothing temporary about either.+@adrianshort -
@aral@adrianshort but independent from what? I'm guessing you mean 'large centralised services run for their owners' benefit'? -
@aral for example, where is the basis of agreement? RFCs used to work, but.. Heck. Twitter wholly inadequate. I should go watch your talks. -
@rgarner This one’s the shortest summary: http://indietech.org/video :) -
@aral 35 minutes into avoiding digital feudalism, I'll get back to you ;-) -
@aral agree totally about the missing quadrant. What I struggle with is where our basis for machine-to-machine openness still is. RFCs?
