Non technical? Second call for any of you who missed the first call! If you're not a techie, or have access to someone who isn't, would you be kind enough to cast your normie eyes on this page for me: http://object.network/ ? Bear in mind it's aimed at folk who are all wound up tight about the issues listed up front, so if that's not you, pretend you are! 😄 (in fact, why aren't you?) Feedback is much appreciated, so go for it! I'm tough. 🤕

I fully agree with what you're trying to do. Data should just BE, and ways to create, share, and view it should be trivial. Good luck with this!
I've considered making a drag and drop JSON viewer and editor, that you can just plug APIs into, and then create functionality and views around. So for example, make it easy to get at the data in existing things like FaceBook or your bank account, and combine and interact with or however you want. Maybe something like that could be a good bridge from existing infrastructure, into something like what you're building

I did have a JSON version of this, and wrote a Node/Heroku server to adapt from multiple sources into it, including Twitter and dbpedia APIs and screen scraping from websites!
There's a talk I did about that at skillsmatter online somewhere

I'd love to see that. I'll look, but let me know if you find the link

I've been frantically updating the object.network page recently to try and explain things as simply as possible!
Yeah:
is really bad
😄
The "mapping the web" bit was added by someone else for some reason, I think there was a mix-up
