In talking to @bonstewart I was using the word resilient more in terms of the web and artifacts (https://resilientwebdesign.com), Bonnie meant it more in terms of communities. Maybe #ProSocialWeb is realization that these are not different.

@benwerd Will have to go and look into past. Buttigieg didn't rule out @phish at inauguration so there is that....yeah so refreshing to see policies from @ewarren, no politician ever has policies... any combination of Warren/Harris/Abrams makes me smile

@benwerd Really digging on Kamala Harris but California is already in the win column, wonder if Abrams could flip GA, don't think enough old white people have died yet in Texas for Beto to flip the state. Warren is from Massachusets, love the policy but the geography all wrong. Don't know much about the other 74 candidates. I hate the electoral college.

@benwerd Call it ageism if you wan't but I also do not want to bank on someone making it to 80 to fill out a term. Though I think Buttigieg will end up as Governor for Indiana (probably a harder election than US Pres). Beto..seems to memeish..but I backed Edwards over Obama...what do I now. At the electoral college level Biden does make sense. Wins PA withou
Greg McVerrySeven Steps to #ProSocialWeb
1. Begin with You Ghandi never said "Be the change..." still doesn't mean it ain't great advice. We need to be the web we want to see. 1 In fact in my recent efforts into #OpenPedagogy (my approach to getting at #ProSocialWeb) I have focused on the words of another Yogi (correctly attributed) Change yourself and you have done your part in the changing the th

@bonstewart and @davecormier for me this message from @dsearls https://twitter.com/dsearls/status/1121121327195119616 resonates with #ProSocialWeb we don't need new service to replace the silos just need to embrace our social nature in places we control

Ursula Franklin writes about importance of friction in holistic tech.... The difficulty leads to unique art. The push for friction free is path to conformity. Social media silos no different #prosocialweb

This also goes back to growth measures of silos. They wanted friction free to boost numbers. Truth and writing never come without friction. It's usually a slow ride down a sandpaper slide. Writing is hard. The Web is hard. Do the work. #prosocialweb

The web is 30 years old but how many teachers in a k12 cant read and write by building websites..... Again... Answer usually close to zero... This level of ignorance is by design and not accident. Three decades of bad hiring and no firing. #prosocialweb

Entrenched power and systems also hurt #prosocialweb. Web is thirty years old. Every industry is a tech industry.. Yet how many departments in #HigherEd have someone in that field who knows web and tech.... It's usually zero... How does that happen?

So I think the #prosocialweb has to deliberately design for diversity and inclusion. Let us recognize if we do not increase efforts around web literacy we will amplify the inequality of the past.
