Join the Conference
Join the Knowledge Standards Foundation for a free, serious, graduate-level, months-long seminar:
The Technology of Decentralization
How and Why to Use Neutral Standards to Build the Encyclosphere and Other Decentralized Networks
What is the Encyclosphere?
Imagine all the encyclopedias in the world, connected into one decentralized network, the way all the blogs are loosely connected. You’ve heard of the blogosphere; now, we’re building an encyclosphere.
“No small group of elites deserves the power to declare what is known for all of us.”
Dr. Larry Sanger
Co-Founder of Wikipedia
What is the Knowledge Standards Foundation?
A global group of volunteers creating the standards and tools for the future encyclosphere. We’re making a network, not an app.
How Can You Help?
We need developers, designers, writers, editors, thinkers, marketers, promoters and fundraisers—if you can imagine a role being useful to kick-starting a network, we need that. Join us by coding, chatting on Slack, blogging, and more.
