Conversation

How do you make writing a more deeply social activity, multiplexed at the level of the smallest possible thought chunks? I don’t mean more hyperlinking, transclusions, or awkward collaborative-writing games. More like longform that’s social the way a twitter convo thread is. 🤔

Code went from highly personal to very social with version control and fork/merge toolchains. That has not really happened to writing. I guess because it’s much easier with code given its hard-edged functional boundaries and potential for encapsulation and scope control.

Hollywood writing is probably the most collaborative known to the world. Especially TV. Movies are a serial relay race, but TV is parallel+multiplexed with a series bibleand showrunner coordinating things. Like a symphony orchestra.
