I mention the blockchain because it (potentially) serves a purpose. It's a verifiable, write-only storage method that can be easily shared among people yet still remain privately controlled. Those are unique attributes! If we look beyond cryptos to blockchain apps that store textual data (as they all really do), there might be a use case for blockchain with what we call canonical documents in Mimix. I'm not married to the idea and there's no buzzword fishing here. Mimix does not involve a token economy or altcoin. I must disagree that linking is a 90% substitute for what Ted called tranclusion. Linking is nothing more than the electronic version of the library card catalog. Linking does not help the user find the context of the referenced material nor help him or her to "link" back to his or her own writing later from that reference material. These were the goals of Nelson's transclusion and they're also part of what we're building with Mimix. As to the paucity of modern education, I agree with the results but not the reason. I don't think people prefer low-quality information. But I do think that corporations and governments prefer to supply that. We need tools to help us Think Better, as we have since Vannevar Bush first proposed his Memex in the 40's. The opportunity to give students and teachers more fine-grained and more accurate access to information can only help raise up the individual to a more powerful place in society. You are 100% right about Wikipedia. It's low-hanging fruit for canon. Many other datasets are, too, such as the legal documents, free books, and artworks offered by academic institutions. The trick is to integrate those works into the Mimix users' new, original, writing and the purpose of Mimix is to enable and simplify that integration in a way that was never before possible.
