Terry Jones at Social Graph Foo Camp, February 2008
summary
London startup builds a global storage and search stack combining a low‑level blob layer like S3 with an index that digs inside objects like Freebase meets Finder, running on a tiny team of developers out of Basona. Objects have no single owner or fixed schema so anyone can add anything to any object and queries combine those annotations. Goal is a writable, searchable information architecture for everyday people; initial work is prototyping rather than deployed at scale.
