The Overweb Pattern
The Three Pillars
Safe Digital Space
Real People in Good Standing
On the Overweb, you can be assured that the personas you encounter are real people in good standing. No bots, fake accounts, or serial abusers. The Overweb has no throwaway accounts. Your history stays with you for better or worse.
On-Page Presence
Go Visible on Webpages
When you opt-in to being visible on a webpage, you can see the other personas visible on the page in a filterable list or even their cursors on the screen. For any visible persona, you can see the profile information they reveal to personas they are not connected with and request communication.

100's of Smart Tags
