    Values in Open Web Mind
    2026/02/12

    The knowledge hypergraph is all about edges between nodes.

    But it’s not just about relationships between entities.

    It has cold, hard numbers, too.

    If you’ve been impressed by what you can do with the relationships between entities in Open Web Mind, you’re going to be blown away by what you can do when you throw in those cold, hard numbers.

  • Minds and melds in Open Web Mind

    Minds and melds in Open Web Mind
    2025/11/28

    Open Web Mind is a knowledge hypergraph that holds all human knowledge.

    But it’s not a monolith.

    It’s made up of many individual minds.

    Each mind is its own knowledge hypergraph. Each has different edges, but these edges are between the same nodes.

    Which means you can meld your mind with other minds, and think as if your mind and those other minds were one.

    Open Web Mind is a billion knowledge hypergraphs that hold a billion individuals’ and institutions’ knowledge, melded into a combinedknowledge hypergraph that holds all human knowledge.

    It’s a billion minds, melded into humanity’s mind.

  • The simplest protocol ever

    The simplest protocol ever
    2025/07/31

    Open Web Mind is a hypergraph of nodes and hyperedges.

    Nothing more.

    Nothing less.

    It’s the simplest protocol ever.

    So how can something so simple hold something as complex as humanity’s mind?

  • What is a hyperedge in Open Web Mind?

    What is a hyperedge in Open Web Mind?
    2025/06/19

    I’ve talked about edges in Open Web Mind, representing connections between nodes.

    But there’s a more precise way to represent connections in Open Web Mind.

    Hyperedges.

    Hyperedges are what make Open Web Mind a truly powerful way to capture human knowledge.

    They transform the knowledge graph into the knowledge hypergraph.

  • Open Web Mind... why now?

    Open Web Mind... why now?
    2025/04/02

    I first imagined minds that might augment our own some three decadesago.

    Yes, I really am that old, and I have the grey hair to prove it.

    So why, three decades later, is it finally the right time for a mind for all humanity?

    Why now?

    Here are three reasons why the time is ripe for Open Web Mind:

    • Reason #1: Search is dead
    • Reason #2: Smash the system
    • Reason #3: Seeing is believing

  • What is fire in Open Web Mind?

    What is fire in Open Web Mind?
    2025/02/26

    How do you think?

    Fire.

    The billions of neurons in your brain fire trillions of times a second.

    How do you think in Open Web Mind?

    Same answer.

    Fire.

  • What is flow in Open Web Mind?

    What is flow in Open Web Mind?
    2024/10/22

    Why is it so hard to flow from one thing to another on the web?

    In our minds, we flow so easily from one motion to the next, one feeling to the next, one idea to the next.

    Why can’t it be like this when we’re on the web?

    Why can’t we flow as easily through our collective mind?

    Well, with Open Web Mind, we can.
