 \maketitle
 
 \begin{abstract}
+    This document describes how one can implement a distributed social network
+    or publishing platform using the IPFS\cite{ipfsbennet}, \cite{ipfsio} and related technologies.
+    It proposes a block data format for a blockchain and conceptual ideas for
+    implementing "profiles" upon this data format.
+    It also describes profile discovery algorithms and lays out problems with
+    trust and how they could be approached.
+    Finally, it proposes an architecture how a client for such a social network
+    could be implemented, focusing on reusability of components to be able to
+    make them available to a broader audience, for example for federated caching
+    or even embedded usage.
