ownhands update, but it has enough cool links I'm crossposting here so more people can see: some great alternative economy, digital commons stuff!
Thanks to PDX Time Bank (see Hourworld.org for more info), I’ve been fortunate to meet two amazing collaborators on the Own Hands Story Search tool: Rob Bednark and Matt McNamara. Rob has jumpstarted serious work on this project, and Matt put together an impressive prototype, integrated with a wealth of information from OpenLibrary, something I would never have thought of.
A quick plug: If you use the research-organization tool, Zotero, you may also be interested in Matt’s Zotero extension for Firefox, Webtero, optimized for web-based research.
Also through the time bank, I’m doing beta reading of Sara Bednark’s (Rob’s wife) novel, Delia, a very well-written tale of isolation and connection in the pandemic. I look forward to seeing this work published and will keep you posted on DW.
