I just minted @danicaswanson new essay (fast rope into understanding Zora and the creative economy bits to know about that party)

Design note: Contains embedded PDF (on IPFS I assume)

Super relevant to my coding/learning journey of the minute (namely wrapping IPFS into a S3 alternative library abstraction).

Thanks Phil! Design note from the writer side: I would've preferred HTML over PDF, but I couldn't get it to look right (and I spent way too much time on that).

Today there was talk in another thread about PDF vs. HTML on Paragraph, so I'm hoping there will be a set standard soon.

Zorbs are a meme associated with the Zora identity. 

I like to think of Zorbs as "attractors for generative value creation through collective attention" (as I wrote in the essay). 

I've had a "Why I Love Zorbs" draft in my files for over a year now. Maybe I'll return to it soon...

also, what's a "Zorb"?
Don't know yet, but I totaly got one in my wallet now 🙈

Just minted @trishd's first Zorb (thanks), nice reference at the end of your essay in the THANKS secion @danicaswanson AND also calling out the best of all possible section titles:

"NOTES FOR THE WORD NERDS"

Read to the end word nerds!

Artsy-fartsy dog mom. Owner of /acrafterscove and I collab with /blxstonesnctuary. trishd.bsky.social. On indefinite hiatus from the purple app.

Best of all possible section titles, eh...? Duly noted! I love it too. Maybe I'll rename my web3 editorial wiki project, or at least reuse that title for one of the sections. 

Always appreciate the word nerds who read to the end. Isn't Trish's first Zorb lovely? Glad you found and minted it!

Glad you enjoyed that episode and the refs in my essay. Happy to chat if you pursue projects on Zora with writers in mind. You might also want to follow @colin from Paragraph, who shares process thoughts here.

I should check with @jacob in case there's a referral reward for bringing in new Zora users this way... haha!

Thx. your cast ↑ about the artefact ("embedded" into the NFT) and imbibing the @jacob/bankless episode, with references to the programmable surface on Zora has got me thinking.

In relation to "writing" and the refs in your essay wrt writing as the artefact (and versioning etc)...a lot of design surface here Danica!
