I'm just learning about CRDTs because of this thread.

Which CRDT things did you find, did you experiment with any, which are you using and why?

(semi cross-posted from another comment)

Aral Balkan gave a talk on a CRDT called WOOT for text editing[1] that I found really helpful to get the general idea of the concept. (Really only the last 8 or 9 minutes of his talk.)

If you want more of the nitty-gritty on some of the different types of CRDT, there's fairly readable paper on the topic[2].

From there, you can start using Google Scholar to find the other papers that have been written.
