Travis has created a [seasteading sub-reddit](http://www.reddit.com/r/seasteading/). This is a site that allows you to share and vote on links, much like digg. This is a functionality I’ve wanted for the www.seasteading.org site from the beginning, so it’s great to have it!

(This is a small new section for the book beta. I will frequently post such sections as writing progress on the book continues. Comments welcome.)

The most successful floating cities can then inspire change around the world.
