I want to build a meta-layer that sits on top of basically every cloud platform be it dropbox or facebook. The best one sentence pitch I can come up with is "A dashboard for your online life" it should ideally do things like present all your storage as a single filesystem, present all your social networks as a single feed, and beyond that allow interactions between services like saving an image from your social network to storage as easily as moving a photo from one folder to another on a local machine. I want to commodify all these web sites and make them as easy to script as bash.
- jdale27 10y agoI think that is a great idea, and perhaps not unlike what the Semantic Web was possibly intended to enable. But it seems not to have been very successful. Or am I mistaken?
- thescribe 10y agoI think I'm thinking of a more limited scope than the semantic web. The semantic web needs everything, I just need the top 100 services people use.
- crystalPalace 10y agoSounds very similar to urbit or sandstorm. The key difference being the single filesystem and single feed which are not explicit features of either of the aforementioned products but could be created on them or might be planned.
