@fedicon I never thought of expanding the open social web to making all the web social! Great presentation!
Thanks @adamtewodros !
I didn't say it explicitly in the talk, but one way to think about it is an upgrade to the web itself. In addition to websites, universal clients, hyperlinks etc, we add people as first class objects with associated retrievable information (like their social graph) and the ability to send structured content between websites.
There is no need we have to stick with the same concepts we've had since the early 90's -- and arguable those were missing even then.

@luca It turns out that if the identities users used to comment on newspaper bulletin boards were the same as what people use in other places, if you blocked somebody on your home instance, you wouldn't see what they wrote on the newspaper site either. At least I believe this can be implemented.

j12t@j12t.social luca@sironi.tk a number of publishers just removed the comment section wholesale, which is an even worse end result.
Bringing them back under the umbrella of the open social web would be great.
