Sharing Age

http://www.bergonia.org/Gov/Flag-red.gifEvery now and then mankind goes through a profound change, we call these the Ages of Man/Earth.

Now don’t worry I’m not going to go Rich Schefren on you and start into a 65 page sales pitch about how we’ve just entered into a new age, no offense Rich ;)

But, as a spin off on his Attention Age Doctrine, I will try to show you that right now there is a significant shift happening in the digital space that’s well worth your time to investigate.

Perhaps in time we’ll look back on this stage of the Internet’s development as the “co-operative/ co-mpetitive Age”

Dude, what are you getting at?

On paper Socialism made perfect sense. Since you operate as part of the economy, as a cog in the wheel, if you will, then you should have a stake in the ownership of that wheel. Everyone who puts into the system should in turn be entitled to a share that allows them to take back out of it too.

Problem was that in reality, it damned well sucked to live in a world run by communism (later)

But in a sense the Internet is a new world right? A world where many of us live, at least in a sense, since we spend so much time here. And in this new world it is possible to change the rules, if we wish, you know, to make the world better.

Well if you contribute to this world (by way of a blog post, a forum thread, etc) then should or could it not be possible to take a percentage share in its ownership?

Its happening, Social networking and Web 2.0 are forcing us to rethink the rules and in this new world it is becoming possible to become an owner simply by being a contributor…

Watch this space…??? Web 3.0?

    I think that was what Rich Schefren was saying in his report. And it also seems that a lot of your other posts overlap with his thoughts in his report as well.

    Maybe you should reread his reports to remember where a lot of your ideas came from.

    Just a suggestion.
