Hi Lena
I have heard Beakerbrowser talked about a lot by people involved in the
p2p web movement over the last year or so.
I found it really confusing at first...
The web was always p2p and decentralised right?!
But since the grand centralisation of the web by the megga platforms it
is good to see work emerging around re-decentralisation of the web.
I wrote a bit about art in this context here
<https://decentralizedweb.net/screening-room/>, for the Furtherfield
screening room for the recent DWeb Summit, featuring 3 works by Annie
Abrahams and Michael Szpakowski.
And then there is this (rather dense but really useful) talk by Dymitri
Kleiner -"You can't code away their wealth"
<https://blog.p2pfoundation.net/cant-code-away-wealth-dmytri-kleiner-explains-construction-p2p-alternatives-conflictual/2016/05/25?cn-reloaded=1>
in which he explains his view on the politics of end-to-end as opposed
to client-server communication infrastructures.
Thanks for posting!
best
Ruth

hi everyone,
just stumbled upon p2p websites, so no servers would be needed
anymore.

Sounds like an interesting idea. Does anyone has experience with it?
btw. strange feeling to write something after years of only
following the list...

hi,
is there anyone else on this list who has sites hosted at the
canadian company ultrahosting? i have my sites there because way
back in 2002 i signed up for a rhizome fundraiser, where they
partnered with a company called broadspire to provide web hosting
for artists & rhizome got a small cut from every customer. over
the years broadspire got bought out or merged a couple of times &
at some point turning into ultrahosting.
since last wednesday my sites have vanished from the web - i can
still see the files via ftp, & email is working, but my sites are
offline & i can't access the plesk control panel or mysql. i
raised a support ticket & got the automated reply, but nothing
further. in the past they have been pretty good at responding
within a few hours - now it's almost a week.
i called the company a couple of times on friday & sat on hold for
ages then left a message. no-one has called back. i've hunted on
their website for other contact details & emailed sales & careers,
but no response. the website has no notice of any major problem. i
followed links to their twitter & fb accounts & found these
defunct. the blog on their website isn't working & some of the
contact forms fail. it's all a bit mysterious & suspicious!
so, while i set about finding a new hosting company (any
recommendations?) i just wondered if anyone else on this list is
also with ultrahosting & perhaps having similar problems?
