discussion item reputation, credentials, certification as currency (0) in Emerging Futures Network
I don't have a good language for this discussion to start, so I'll just start. The variety of currencies and flows is of great importance to us: we see relevance in paying attention to diverse flows, and the incentives/disincentives surrounding the...

discussion item Facilitating Flow (0) in Targeted Currencies
I noticed that most if not all of the discussions thus far focus around money or alternatives to money. And money is one way to faciltate flow. However there are other ways to faciltate flow too. Like faciltating the flow of information via this spac...

discussion item Some thoughts about reputation, and why we care... (0) in Targeted Currencies
You could say that the future of humanity relies on our learning to harmoniously and efficiently share the finite resources of this planet. Lessons from communism teach us this won't be achieved through central control, and inequities inherent in cap...

discussion item Comment (6) on "Get Mine" vs. "Grow Ours" - Two Responses to Scarcity (14) in Targeted Currencies
Great stuff. CM, if I understand, you have demonstrated the kind of goofy thinking that Arthur refers to above. Forgetting, of course, that the water that plants "consume" evaporates and falls again downstream. The water we have to worry about is ...

discussion item Comment (5) on Questions on OS-Earth and other models (0) in Targeted Currencies
BTW, the DVD I've been touting (The Upward Spiral by Paul Krafel) is all about healthy/unhealthy flows. Erosive flows feed back on each other multiplying their erosive effect creating a downward spiral antithetical to life. Nourishing flows feed ba...

discussion item Comment (1) on Questions on OS-Earth and other models (0) in Targeted Currencies
Interesting that you bring the concept of turbulence into the discussion of flow. In fluid dynamics, that is generally what you want to avoid, and lifting surfaces don't function in that mode, but in dynamic systems analysis, all the interesting thi...

discussion item Comment (5) on Questions on OS-Earth and other models (0) in Targeted Currencies
Currency. Towards the beginning the root of the term is explored, current , currency, from Latin. *When we speak of currencies, we mean "the tools for catalyzing currents."* This leads me to our first question. A current may only be a current if th...

discussion item How do we NOT talk about currency? (0) in Targeted Currencies
The coolest thing about the projects that we're involved with is probably the "side effects" or outcomes of people changing the way they interact with each other. Building trust. Inspiring Generosity. Meeting needs. Including people. Establishin...

discussion item Comment (11) on Facilitating Flow (0) in Targeted Currencies
I think I've got a better handle on how to communicate about the importance of currencies in facilitating flow. It came from trying to communicate with my geeks doing software development, why they should care about the currency stuff we're building...

discussion item Comment (5) on How do we NOT talk about currency? (0) in Targeted Currencies
*This is excerpted and patched together text from an IM dialogue with Jean. It illustrates a new non-currency way of talking about these things.* Also, see a more coherent post about this topic. "Packetizing" Information Think of computer netwo...

discussion item Comment (1) on How do we NOT talk about currency? (0) in Targeted Currencies
Ted: So there are ways of counting (we don't have to say accounting) things in different domains: Reputation, feedback, incentives, statues, performance, value, tickets, coupons, rebates, certifications, degrees, medals, ribbons, stars, etc. What I...

discussion item Comment (0) on How do we NOT talk about currency? (0) in Targeted Currencies
I posted this thread over 1.5 years ago. The issue is still very relevant to me, although it is apparent that I have not asked the question in an engaging enough way for anybody to have actually engaged with it. So. Suggestions about how to frame t...

discussion item Comment (5) on What are Targeted Currencies? (9) in Targeted Currencies
Tom, I think that’s a great question. Unfortunately I don’t know if I understand the goals of the Omidyar Network well enough to answer it fully. Let me take some steps towards an answer and add some more questions… First, the Omidyar Networ...

discussion item Comment (5) on What are Targeted Currencies? (9) in Targeted Currencies
Sorry about the confusion. It is understandable because the phrase actually refers to multiple things. When I use the phrase *"targeted currency"* I am referring to a special purpose currency that is targeted to a specific community (which may or m...
