+We started the Hubzilla project by asking ourselves a few questions:
- Imagine if it was possible to just access the content of different web sites, without the need to enter usernames and passwords for every site. Such a feature would permit Single-Click user identification: the ability to access sites simply by clicking on links to remote sites.
Authentication just happens automagically behind the scenes. Forget about remembering multiple user names with multiple passwords when accessing different sites online.

-After asking and striving to answer a number of such questions, we realized that we were imagining a general purpose communication network with a number of unique, and potentially game-changing, features. We called it the Red Matrix and started thinking of it as an over-lay on top of the internet as it exists today; an operating system re-invented as a communication network, with its own permissions, access control lists, protocol, connectors to others services, and open-ended possibilities via its API. The sum of the matrix is greater than it's parts. We're not building website, but a way for websites to link together and grow into something that is unique and ever-changing, with autonomy and privacy.

It's a lot of work, for anyone. So far, we've got a team of a handful of volunteers, code geeks, brave early adopters, system administrators and other good people, willing to give the project a shot. We're motivated by our commitment to a free web, where privacy is built-in, and corporations don't have a stranglehold on our daily communication.

- A professionally designed user interface (UI), interface that is adaptive to any user level, from end users who want to use the Matrix as a social network, to tinkerers who will put together a customized blog using Comanche, to hackers who will develop and extend the matrix using a built-in code editor, that hooks to the API and the git.

You can still use it to send postcards. At the same time, when you wave your passport at somebody, they do accept it as proof of identity. No longer do you need to register at every single site you use. You already have an account - it's just not necessarily at our site - so we'll ask to see your passport instead.

+[b]8. Can I build my own website with in the Hubzilla?[/b]
Yes. The short explanation: We've got this spiffy idea we're calling "Comanche", which will allow non-programmers to build complete custom websites, and any such website will be able to connect to any other website or channel in the matrix. The goal of Comanche is to hide the technical complexities of communicating in the matrix, while encouraging people to use their creativity and put together their own unique presence on the matrix.
