For interested Bay Area folks, we're hosting our monthly decentralized web meetup at the Internet Archive tomorrow night, and Jeremy Johnson from IPFS will be discussing some of their recent stuff. Details and tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/decentralized-web-meet-up-ticke...

(we ask for a small donation to cover food & facilities, but if this is a hardship for you, e-mail me and I can help out)

For some reason this reminded me of the scene from Stranger Than Fiction where she's teasing Harold, "Anarchists have a group? They assemble? Wouldn't that defeat the whole purpose?"

(I don't suppose I know how you would handle a distributed meetup, unless IPFS has some facilities I'm unfamiliar with...)

Heh, emphasis on "some," since he's only talking for 15min. ;)

Still nice, but 15 mins will barely scratch the surface I'm sure.

Wish I could make that. If someone gets a video, can you please post the link back on this thread?
