airbnb is not the new economy, couchsurfing is
maybe the best name for this economy is: gift economy
it's all about cooperation instead of competition
there is a natural tendency for the many gift economy initiatives to unite but how to accomplish this unity?
i want to contribute the power of the semantic web to this unification motion
in particular i want to use DEMO (ee-institute.org)
i have a simulation on how this could work, see: guts4roses.org/simulation
if you want to cooperate please contact me at jeroen[at]guts4roses[dot]org
i am looking for cooperation/a team
One person thinks this is smart
Hi Jeroen, What a nice idea 'Gift Economy'!
You might want to look into Transition cities www.transitionnetwork.org and
Slow Cities www.cittaslow.org. They do interesting work and are focusing topics and values you seem interested in.
