Prophet: a path out of the Cloud

Prophet: a path out of the Cloud from Jesse Vincent

Jesse pitches Prophet at OSCON 2008 as the offline-first alternative to cloud-only apps. The framing: an open-source database with an API family resembling Amazon SimpleDB or Google App Engine, but built for peer-to-peer replication and disconnected use. The first app on top of it is a canonical offline bug tracker that syncs over local networks (the seed of SD).
