Summary: Some of the topics and themes we plan to cover this week or this month

TODAY we started a number of new series ("Why People Everywhere Should Quit YouTube", "Inside the Real Linux Foundation", and "The End of Sirius Open Source"), adding those on top of existing and long-running ones (GitHub for two years now and EPO for 9 years already).



"...we're trying to take up the pace of blogging, which means more regularly writing news/updates on strategic topics, maybe more videos, and perhaps multi-part series that are investigatory in nature."The video above explains the direction and priorities not only of the site; we have IPFS, capsules, IRC and so on. Daily Links still matter a lot as well. But we're trying to take up the pace of blogging, which means more regularly writing news/updates on strategic topics, maybe more videos, and perhaps multi-part series that are investigatory in nature. Talking to politicians and former colleagues took up a lot of time lately, but that will pay off (deferred).

The next couple of videos will focus on YouTube and on Sirius 'Open Source'. Articles about Sirius might even last until the end of this year, seeing the pace at which things are progressing (British authorities are very slow).
