Information blogging guidelines (IBG) is a list of templates and goals for displaying information on a webpage. There are 5 templates and 3 goals listed below.

  • There are __ _____ listed below alphabetically.
  • There are __ _____ listed below chronologically.

Goals

  • Minimalism and clarity of information
  • Standardization across IBG posts
  • Networks of IBG websites and blogs


My goal is to find people and organizations who are willing to convert their knowledge into the IBG format. I'm optimistic that someday there can be thousands of blogs and websites that use IBG to create a decentralized network of compatible reference works.

With the exception of Wikipedia, today the information on the internet is very disorganized. To address this, I believe we need a standard (or lingua franca) that enables different websites to work together on the same information collection project. And to organize the world's information, I believe it would be necessary to have a standard for creating chunks of information. Chunking allows information to exist in a more granular medium which allows greater flexibility when organizing and arranging pieces of information in a directory or list.
