Can you elaborate more on this? What do you mean by making text files on my computer into a social network? Is that just a metaphor or are you actually doing something like that?
- cookingoils 6y agoIt's more of a metaphor for how to think about/approach the site. Logs and lists are stored in a centralized db so nothing new happening behind the scenes. Supporters are able to download their content as txt files, so you could use it as an online version of TextEdit.
