Teotwawki Net: Distributed Discussion System You Control

,----[ Quote ]
| TEOTWAWKI Net is an electronic, community 
| networking system intended for deployment anywhere 
| there is no permanent communications 
| infrastructure, other than what people actually 
| carry with them. It currently provides a 
| distributed, de-centralized discussion group 
| system, implementing a private version of Usenet, 
| communicating over 802.11 ad-hoc Wi-Fi links (or 
| physically with USB flash storage devices), and 
| runs on XOs and most generic GNU/Linux systems 
| that have standard wireless networking adapters. 
| The system might be expanded in the future to 
| incorporate other models of collaboration, such as 
| with wikis and other forms of social networking.
