Oort Cloud: Participatory Publishing Experiment

[via Paul Hartzog’s Weblog]

Back in September, Paul hartzog wrote about “Social Publishing” on Corante’s Many-to-Many. Paul about a concept he was thinking about where:

“…authors create and distribute their work, and readers, individually and collectively, including fans as well as editors and peers, review, comment, rank, and tag, everything.”

Recently, with a colleague Richard Adler, Paul has started Oort-Cloud.

From the Oort-Cloud FAQ:

What is Oort-Cloud?

For now, it’s a blog that gives us a chance to present some fundamental ideas, get feedback about them from other people, and comment on events and concepts that are, or might be, relevant to what Oort-Cloud is all about.

But Oort won’t always be just a blog. Oort-Cloud will be a community of readers, authors, editors, and critics. What Oort-Cloud will be beyond that depends on you and the rest of the active community.
