# Applications
This section explores possible further applications in the social and knowledge spaces in the form of a series of short essays.
## Building meaning together through federation
## Provisioning meaning together with federated heterarchies
- An Agora supports taxonomies in principle but mostly provides a set of basic tools to converge on meaning best effort through social processes based on federated [[heterarchies]].
- [[Agora trees]], meaning by default [[outliner mode]] text with [[wikilinks]], hint at sections containing [[Agora Protocol]].

- TODO: (Details on an [[open source algorithm]] for ranking and filtering based on the above go here.)
- TODO: (Details on eventual [[convergence]] as a phenomenon to be studied.)
An Agora tries to solve all of these based on social signals contributed to the commons:
- [[taxonomies]]
- [[heterarchies]], as represented by [[agora trees]] and [[path/like/queries]], can be reinforced by the Agora as more users hint at them.
- Hypothesis: this can do away with the need for fixed taxonomies or category systems, and the associated upkeep cost (and potentially gatekeeping) that comes with them.
- [[equivalence classes]]
- [[ranking]]
- [[filtering]]
If users write that [[x]] pulls [[y]].
## Collaborative world building
- We seek to provision and maintain a distributed knowledge graph tailored specifically to the goal of solving problems: those of its users and society at large.
- This [[knowledge graph]] will be a [[commons]].
