View By Shared Interests

I am looking to learn from colleagues about alternative economy and technology, about the evolving technology needs of progressive community, and the barriers to greater social justice and sustainability that can be addressed with technology and smart thinking.

Think of it as "residential zoning for the internet". For the first time, there is free space for communities of shared interests to form. Member of the community are able to obtain an identity related to the community to be used for personal web space or spam-free email.

We are looking for partners able to provide digital identity, social networking and community software.

We are looking for beta communities: we provide the tools and space; you provide the rest.
