III. Collaborative + Shared Fiction

Writers, authors, who are open to a collaborative + shared fiction can use the fediverse. It can either be in long form or microblogging form.

In a microblogging form, each author writes up to 10,000 characters worth of story, then pass it on to the next author who will continue it. And so on.

Then a tool parses their thread so it can be viewed as one book, and it autogenerates the credits.

The shared part is, allowing other authors to create another branch of the same world that is happening elsewhere or elsewhen (or both). Same world.

IV. OpenBadge integration?

V. Internal communication

IIRC, #Mozilla already did this back in the Laconica/StatusNet days. Again, IIRC, they setup their own private instance, and only select accounts were allowed to communicate to the rest of the fediverse network.

All the employees have an account in the internal instance. They communicate there to send updates during their participation in some event where they need a fast way to send updates to each other.

Then the select accounts that can connect to the “outside world” are used to send updates to the fans/guests.

If this can be duplicated, other companies can copy (and improve) what @mozilla did 10+ years ago.

(aside: Did Mozilla publish a case study of what they did then? And how they did their setup?)
