@athsrueas @geoprotocol Great job!

I'm building education data collections and visualizations from public open data as part of my work with @geoprotocol as a curator. Preview for first of many. athsrueas.github.io/Open_Data/ Check it out if you have ever wanted to compare nations across metrics easily!

@robin_rrtx @AvailProject All the best🙌

quick life update: I have wrapped up my time at @AvailProject after almost 2.5 years with the team. It's been a hell of a ride these past 2.5 years. Right from the pre-mainnet DA days all the way to launching both DA and Nexus mainnet together. Really cool to see everything we've built and achieved as a team. Being part of this team as a DevRel was more than I could ask for. Over the years, we built Avail to be a Top 3 and most cutting-edge DA Layer with multiple rollups on top, and an interop/chain abstraction solution for apps and much more. I remember when I joined the team back in 2023 when it had just split off from Polygon and was trying to find its footing as its own entity and brand, while also trying to be a place where developers would enjoy building on top of. Since then, they've established a great presence in the industry, worked with tier-1 teams, and acquired others. So cool to see this entire growth of pre-mainnet to post-mainnet maturity in the trenches LIVE on a day-to-day basis. During this time I was able to build and execute across multiple vectors: - Build and manage the dev community, including the Governance & Research Forum. - Improving DevEx and relaying user feedback to Product. - Started doubling down and improving my content game, with some of my work reaching 150K+ impressions - Build demos and support integrations for partners. - Rebuild and migrate the docs for improved devex - Led and organized events for Avail during the conference circuit ... and so much more Beyond the work, it's been great getting to know each of my teammates personally. Got to meet some wonderful people along the way and also make some friends. Including but not limited to @prabalbanerjee @anuragarjun @naruto11eth @thunder @christineRPM @ri5hitripathi @vibhu_rajeev @qedk_ @Swetha @alisonclaire @0xabhk @PriyankGupta03 @ScottMilat @kyleArojas @chandlerdkk and a lot more people who I've met and worked with in the past years. Some of them who have moved on since. I'll keep cheering for the team and everything they have planned ahead. As for me, what's next? More info about it coming soon. Until then, take care, you beautiful people. You will be missed.

News should leave you with understanding, not just an opinion. What if every story was presented with individual claims that can be cited and challenged, sources linked, and every perspective laid out clearly? All in one place, updated as events unfold. Introducing Geo News ↓

We just launched Geo News! Because the problem with the news is no longer access. It’s orientation. We are flooded with headlines, hot takes, and algorithmic fragments, yet it’s harder than ever to answer simple questions: What is actually happening? What are the main narratives? Where do they differ? What claims are being made? What evidence are they based on? Geo News is designed to help with exactly that. It maps stories across sources and perspectives, so you can explore coverage with more context and less distortion. Not just what happened, but how it is being framed, what is contested, and what sits underneath the discourse. Think of it as a way to break out of the feed and into a fuller picture. Less noise. More context. Better shared understanding. Try it out - link in the comments

@geoprotocol Enter the Geoverse🔮

Big challenges don't get solved alone. Introducing Geo Community Calls. Find your people inside the Spaces that matter to you. Join together. Build something that lasts.

DeepWiki by @cognition is seriously underrated. Generated detailed Geo SDK docs for @geoprotocol and it’s now my go-to. Docs: deepwiki.com/geobrowser/geo…

The GRC-20 spec is officially frozen! 🎉 After years of development, we have a new knowledge graph standard that is web3 & AI native 🌈 A global interconnected knowledge graph is a major unlock for human + agent coordination. Check out the spec! 🙌 github.com/geobrowser/grc…

Knowledge isn't just what you see in your feed. It's buried in endless noise. What's one topic where the lack of real structure has frustrated you?

We’ve already had over 5,000 signups for the Geo Curator program! Exciting to see so many people passionate about our mission. Here’s a quick breakdown of the 400+ curators already accepted: → AI & technical backgrounds: 35–40% → Health, life sciences & nutrition: 20–25% → Politics, governance & society: 20% → Education & research: 10–12% We’ve had applications from over 50 countries, with standouts clusters being: US, UK, India, Brazil, Nigeria, & Western Europe. Grateful for the depth and range of perspectives already contributing.

Time to rebuild the foundations of knowledge with @geoprotocol

@geoprotocol Exactly why we are building 🔮

At the core of every civilization is a System. For organizing. For believing. It starts with Knowledge. And it starts again now. geobrowser.io
