Agora is an intriguing experiment: each participant has a repository full of Markdown files on a software forge. The application pulls down all of them and weaves together files with the same name in different repositories, so for example when you click on "digital garden", you can see what everyone has to say about the concept. It's a great way to discover new people /and/ new topics at the same time: two axes of a possibility space.
