Livin’ in a Knowledge Economy, with an Information Internet. 

Something didn’t happen to the internet.

We’re stuck living in a knowledge world with an information internet.

It was conceived as a distributed was to communicate between networks and devices. It birthed email. Anyone, anywhere could get a message to anyone else. Then in the 1990’s it birthed the first major application layer, The Web, a universally linked information system. The web catapulted internet usage from innovators to the mainstream.

But since no new communication layers have been invented.

VOIP just copied landline protocols.

Rather than be a full communication tools. It’s primarily used to exchange information.

The web started off enabling anyone to publish anything. Today, anyone can publish anything unless the government disagrees with the narrative. (Twitter, China) Even worse, the services we use will cooperate with the government to censor or silence you without any due process.

The world has changed alot in 30 years,

For 100,000 years we were talk-first.

Today, using the internet means exchanging information. Few conversations take place. Simulated communication is still far off. But it’s not because we don’t communicate that way on the contrary. Mimetic simulation is the base level of human communication we are birthed knowing. Next we learn conversation.

We now live in a knowledge economy, with an information internet.

Knowledge fuels Human Intelligence. Our knowledge may be mimed, spoken or recorded.

Economy is where we exchange our knowledge capital for other types such as financial,

Information fuel Artificial Intelligence.

Internet

In the last 5 years, a new type of internet application layer has now become possible. Earth has been covered by a Bandwidth Blanket.

In the last 5 years, Earth has been covered in a Bandwidth Blanket.

For the first time in human history internet connectivity
now supports a universally prompt conversation system.

We conceived The Arc, conversation internet.

Now anyone can talk without

Whenever, someone sets out on a task. The world’s information is now instantly accessible and useful.

Information vs. Knowledge.
When you search the web, you get information. When you ask a friend a question, you get knowledge. This knowledge may go beyond facts with things like facial expressions, tone on voice, confidence conveyed. This knowledge may also be nuanced, you asked this but I’d do this. Most importantly, this knowledge you’re getting is real-time. It came from a source that not only stored the knowledge but synaptically processed it against other knowledge to communicate with you. The mere fact, that you asked the question may have prompted the recipient to create new knowledge that they never considered before.

Knowledge is what we know. Information is what we record.

The web economy is ad-based. Instead of focusing us on our primary task, we are interrupted by the distraction of ads.

We should be able to locate conversations inside and outside our own networks to instantly exchange knowledge.

Yet the current systems are not built for this.

Consider calling. One party initiates a call by entering from their device the intended recipient‘s UUID (phone #). The recipient’s controller signals back to the initiator, whether the recipient’s line is available. If not, it signals back a ‘busy’ signal. If the line is available, a ringing sound initiatives. The recipient’s device alerts them of an incoming call. The recipient can choose to answer or not.

The outgoing signaling protocol includes:
• Who

The inbound signaling protocols identify
• Available/Not Available

We’ve barely scratched the surface on the potential for this communication.

It’s time for a new universal communication system.

As humans, we first communicate with each other mimetically (gesture & sound) then mythically (talk and listen in conversation) and finally symbolically (recorded and consume information).

In the 1800s, we electrified information with the telegraph and conversation with the telephone.

In the 1960’s, Kleiner we digitized the analog phone system as the internet (nee Arpanet).

In the 1990’s, Berners-Lee conceived and built a native digital version of the analog library system as the World Wide Web. It was this system that catapulted the internet usage from innovator usage to early adopters.

In the 1990’s, VOIP digitized the existing calling system. Yet the applications usage still wanes in comparison to the web.

Yet where are the new ideas?

We believe the next great leap is a conversation internet. Nothing exists as a direct comparison offline. So analogy is difficult.

We innovate from first principles. Yet we persuade from analogy.

Arcing Conversation.

Prompt. Imagine you could order your conversation by what, not who.
Seek. Imagine you were able to locate a conversation without interrupting (call) or distracting (messaging)
Talk.

The internet should be talk-first.
Instead of typing to search. We should speak to seek conversation.

Instead of managing open inbound communication,

The Jack (concept)
Naturally, if you have a universal prompt conversation system as an internet application layer, it makes sense to integrate it with the universally linked information system.

The Jack is a Universal Knowledge Communication System. Our mission is to accelerate the internet’s transition to a knowledge exchange, se we know more.

It is a Liberated-source software. Which means anyone with an internet connection

Talk vs text.
