"Why isn't the internet more simple?" I guess it's the same reason why we don't use modularity in operating systems and applications. We have gotten used to how things have been done until now.
Recommend reading this article since this ideas have been in my head for some time. https://joshondesign.com/2017/08/18/idealos_essay Disclaimer: this isn't my article. Doesn't mean that this things can't be disrupted. "Indexing data is hard. There isn't enough value for every given website to do it." Well a lot of websites have their own search feature and a modular FOSS search engine wouldn't be out of the question. The database would need to figure out what is the context of the content and then tag those contents.
The data could be feed to a repository or pass around different computers if we would use a decentralized protocol. Given the modular nature of the system you could be hooked to more than one repository and your application would only need to figure out if the data feed is a duplicate and sort the content by metadata. I'm curious to what would the web look like if a large numbers of websites decided that they don't want Google. A verification system would also be need to verify that no one website tempers with it's data in order to rank higher in the results. Then again this would be a very modular experience so you would have a lot of choices regarding verification systems,wall crawlers, database repositories.
True, the last part is true, that you would have more choices but isn't that what we want? Also i'm not saying that I wouldn't want Paypal and Gwallet to not exist just saying that there is a lot of interesting things out there I would wish to see happen. |
