Nostr Atlanta #15 - Rush Hour Avoidance
684 John Wesley Dobbs Ave NE suite a1, Atlanta, GA, USJoin us for Nostr Atlanta! Calling all nostr users, content creators, enthusiasts, developers, and more!
We're trying to avoid the nasty rush hour traffic! Bring your laptop as this session will involve some tool building. Bonus: we're already here for the evening session! Suggest future topics to Andrew (Primary User) in the ATL BitLab Discord.
What is Nostr?
A simple way to think of nostr is as a censorship-resistant social media protocol. In other words, instead of social media being owned by large tech giants, it could be a free and open protocol, the way email is.However, nostr is being used for much more than just building social media apps. Nostr flips the current internet paradigm of "dumb client/smart server" to "smart client/dumb server", by using relays and public-key cryptography. Nostr empowers users to control their own data.

Agenda
4:30 PM - 6:00 PM
Beat the rush, informal round-table discussion of Nostr and adjacent topics.Location
