@dbounds You can. Known is a simple way to publish a social stream and easily syndicate it to other software & networks.

@jgmac1106 @mhawksey Yes. Definitely need some glue to hold it all together - and if the integrations are lightweight this should work well.

@jgmac1106 @mhawksey Makes sense. We'll support it for sure, but institutions should have concerns about lock-in etc.

@jgmac1106 @mhawksey It technically could, but I think it would be better if the backbone was itself open. Google is far from that.

@sirmlivesey In the end they bought it by acquiring a contextual ad company! Worked out okay for them.

@daniellemorrill I'm not their demographic, but I've found the principle to be solid: slick visual design can create audience alienation.

The more social media is monitored to algorithmically measure us, the more we'll begin to game our activity. Soon: robots all the way down.

This is the worst thing I've ever put in my ears.

@tilgovi Yep. Scope for an official plugin perhaps?

@icco Let me know if I can help in any way!

@codeguy A little late, but sticking a hand up for Known, too: https://withknown.com/opensource
