This article was written to explore a question: what difference can web3 bring to CONTENT? ha
The introduction of bi-directional links is for bridging web2 context with web 3 id-ized content. The concern is that the original and majority of the context is still on web2 pages(URLs), and the content we abstract from that context could have a parallel “identity(ID)“ enabled by web3 infrastructure.
Later, we could do things like block mapping and text computation on IPFS(probably not on IPFS, but some middle layer for semantic computing), while the context are addressable on web 2.
Treat every piece of content as an object, we could have a fresher and more interactive relationship with the content. Imagine you are building “the block website“!
This 👆thinking stems from a missing experience. For a long time I suffered from repeatedly OCR (optical character recognition), PDF highlights, web pages (URLs) clips,…etc from separate medium. And then to make it “in one place“, i become a tester & expert of TOOLs, i tried so many note-taking tools, plug-ins, and their corresponding plug-ins…and
You’d better not change your software, lose the PDF or anything, otherwise things are too tough to think about🤯. Mediums never exist as "objects" with “us(objects)”, we are trying to organize them until realizing they are dandelion.
Simply put, can I do it once (cOpy, highlight, clip, cut,generate) and these things can follow "me" ?
So the question is, how do I operate on the content itself, and establish a relationship with it?
From the beginning, whatever text you generate is under your signature.
Whenever you generate text, either note-taking or clipping content with its context, you can easily keep that in word blocks.
Take mirror for example,
1. You can pull up the plugin at any time to see the previously saved blocks
2. Copy the block ID (with bidirectional links)
3. For readers, jump directly to the specific part of the web page (like scroll-to-text)
As you see, as we accumulate a block network of text, a semantic network needs to be constructed for block search.
Thoughts for the Block Network 🕸️ :
Create a set of intermediaries (e.g., a group of people taking notes)
Store the semantic relations of blocks on a network of these intermediaries
spend up the retrieval of blocks (either yours or others' can be queried) keywords/categories/time/factors
Like i mentioned in the post, word block aims to explore a new experience between content and individuals, but in essence, it is still the relationship between people, between like-minded people.
1st, where we stand is the signature economy instead of an Information silos, we connect via open creation under MY signature.
2nd, "social" has a vivid landscape in web3, where people could be matched to each other for various purposes. if word block is a literature system, there will be “drivers“ helping match "words" or thoughts.
when people want to find similar "blocks", refer to each other's block, and be united by block curation, that's the kind of "social" via block-based knowledge graph!
3rd, I want to connect the web2 context(the existing literature history) with the web3 capability of composability, computability, and interoperability (make a parallel new world of things). I summarize as:
Dismantle web page, present in blocks, match via blocks.
