>I also think there needs to be multiple transports for posting content - if I want to send a message to my buddy Dan, I should be able to send it directly to him if he's online. If he isn't, though, I should be able to let other users whom we both know grab a copy to pass on to him later, or maybe have a "deaddrop" server or a "pub" where I can stash messages and have them get picked up by someone else later. Scuttlebutt is built around enabling this as a (the?) primary feature. It's not just "supported", the entire ecosystem does this by design. It even calls that kind of server "pubs" (they're normal peers, they just auto-follow anyone who asks).
