#17: Kenton Varda - Sandstorm

Author: Francis Irving August 20, 2014 Duration: 20:26
Kenton Varda, creator of Protocol Buffers, on his new personal cloud platform Sandstorm. How can we get more open source web apps?

Redecentralize interviews, hosted by Francis Irving, is a monthly series of compact conversations with the people quietly building a different kind of internet. This technology podcast moves beyond the hype to focus on the individuals and the practical code behind the movement to distribute control away from corporate silos. Each episode is a focused fifteen-minute discussion that asks direct questions: what specific problem are you solving, what does your technology actually do, and what does a decentralized future look like in tangible terms? You’ll hear from developers and thinkers working on protocols for communication, data storage, and digital identity, exploring the trade-offs and challenges inherent in redesigning the web's foundations. The tone is curious and grounded, more a series of thoughtful tech briefings than manifesto deliveries. By listening to this podcast, you gain a clearer window into the ongoing architectural shift of our digital world, one concise interview at a time. It’s for anyone who senses the internet is heading in a troubling direction and wants to understand the tangible, if incremental, alternatives being built in response.
