# Plan
- A [[thing]].
- I have a plan. I call it [[Flancia]] for short.
- I intend to dedicate most of my [[free time]] to it.
- The plan, in a nutshell and if you'll allow me a literary flourish, is to write a roadmap to [[Flancia]] with [[you]].
- Flancia is a kind of [[eutopia]]; in particular a [[protopia]]. It is a place that doesn't exist, yet has both contact points with the [[real world]] and some [[good]] qualities. The working [[hypothesis]] is that it could actually be built through the iterative application of [[cooperative]], [[rational]], [[optimistic]], [[compassionate]] thinking.
- My current thinking along the aforementioned lines leads me to want to focus my free time in two ways:
- Engaging in [[philanthropy]] within my means.
- Promoting and building [[tools]] for the advancement of knowledge and cooperation.
- Because of the above I'm building an [[Agora]]: a goal-oriented [[experimenta]] [[social network]] specialized in [[problem solving]].
- You are probably reading this in some version of it right now.
- The Agora, at its most basic and general, is a protocol: [[Agora Protocol]].
- I believe [[wikilinks everywhere]], an [[MVP]] or application of the protocol, might have some potential to improve the health of the internet.
- This plan used to include developing [[palimpsest]], perhaps a generally interesting feature that might in time help bootstrap the Agora; but I know believe [[hypothes.is]] or [[memex]] are essentially the same thing, and the Agora should interop with them and complement them if at all possible.
- My plan also includes by default every pro-social action which makes aspects of my [[identity]] which I consider ethically sound and constructive available to others for judgment, cooperation or communication. In other words, I try to be fully open :)
- My current attitude towards the world is to try to do the best that I can regardless of my personal limitations in [[skill]] and [[knowledge]]; being open about both my plan and my limitations is an important part of my identity, as I believe openness as a social attitude results in interactions conducive to optimal mutual understanding and cooperation.
- I practice [[open ethics]] and [[open source]].
- See also: [[contract]].
- I keep a [[ta eis heauton]].
- I practice [[open ethics]].
- With your help I'd like to build many [[stoas]].
- Have I ever told you that in [[Flancia]] there is an [[Agora]]?
