SOLID is a spec that TBL & co (like Dmitri Zagidulin) have worked on. It is quite good and based on linked data. It was mostly worked on the other year, but I think it is only now starting to be marketed - which means TBL thinks it is ready for people to implement.

We wound up implementing something very similar, about the same time (I wish I had known about SOLID earlier), except using CRDTs and graphs (which can support Linked Data). Our implementation is live and functioning already, including:

- Realtime updates across a decentralized network.

- End-to-end encryption with P2P identities.

- Backs up to localStorage/disk (if you Electron-ify/etc. it) - Can also be backed up by remote storage services.

It is as if IPFS and Firebase had a love child, and we've tried really hard to reduce the API to just a couple lines of code to get fully working P2P social netowrking dApps in place.
