PermawebDAO and more with Co-founder Benjamin

from Permaweb Pioneers

Benjamin's curiosity in "web3" technologies made a big leap once he decided he was done with "web2" after some great conversations with Sam Williams which eventually led to Benjamin becoming a co-founder of Arweave.news.As a budding programmer, the possibilities of Arweave sparked many thoughts, one of which was archiving the internet as we know it. "The robust promises of Arweave got me really interested in it as an alternative to the Way Back Machine... I thought wow, can't we just port all of this information over to Arweave instead?".After further exploration and discovery, another big "aha!" moment occurred in conversation with Sam regarding front-end interfaces and development on Arweave, "all you really need to do to make a Permaweb application is to be able to write front-end code and use a couple of libraries that query the Arweave blockchain for data". This insight enabled a huge leap in thinking through the potential of what can be built on Arweave and the accessibility of it from his set of already known tools, languages, and emphasis as a developer. Of course, the insights have continued on and Benjamin is now on his path in founding PermawebDAO, which currently represents a collection of products and services built on the Permaweb. There is more to come on this front, so be sure and give @xylophonezy a follow on Twitter. And of course, follow @onlyarweave on Twitter for all things Arweave :)
