Some further correspondence with Jordan MacLeod of Elevatorcorp brings out a bit more on the intention behind their program. My questions:
I would love to see MHP as part of such a peernet structure. If course for now, this is all in the realm of...
I understand that Wildblue provides satellite internet connections. What escapes me is what this has to do with a user-generated local cloud of personal computers. Care to elaborate?
"The End of Money and the Future of Civilization" is of course the title of Thomas Greco's most recent book.

Profile Information
- About Me:
- I have been networking for some years and am interested to see humanity become a more compact, stable, intelligent reality.
Needed changes, brainstormed together with Robin and Susan in January 2003 on Terceira island, Azores:
Genova, the Azores and our Common Future
My focus is principally in three areas:
Natural health (Health Supreme)
Physics and new energy (my blog)
and economics/new monetary systems. This last one does not have a dedicated site, so both Health Supreme and the physics blog have some stuff on it. Some articles are on my earlier site as well.
My desire: help prepare humanity for our entry into a new space age ...
- How did you come across this network?

Broadband takes to the skies
This is a recent item on BBC news, describing how airplanes will be connected linking up to satellite broadband, allowing passengers access to the internet.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7822430.stm
So my wife asked an interesting question: What about using the airplanes as a network forming relay to give internet connectivity to those on the ground?
Although not a stable connection when looking at one plane at a time, th… Continue

Can Consumers Collectively Own 'Producers'?
In today's world we have for the most part - a strict separation of production and consumption, which together constitute "the market". The incentive for a market economy is a division of labor. Some are good at organizing, others are good at doing various "jobs". The enterprising spirits who are good at organizing become producers or purveyors of commerce, meaning, distributors of things produced. The less enterprising who yet need some resources to survive contribute by selling their manual or… Continue

- hi Sepp
Half a year after you welcomed me to P2Pfoundation, i finally got back to the website. Shamefully late!
Thank you for the comments about our book Breakthrough Power. Suggestions for possible publishers of foreign editions are always welcomed.
I very much appreciate the insights that you bring to forums in our world.
Best regards, Jeane Manning

I'm tempted to delete that comment, but will instead post this as notice of my mistake: Ning has an interesting little feature ... apparently someone is sensitive to the "shatter the thread" effect that wall-like functions have. "Follow thread" ... that's a new one for me ... sweet!
That's the sort of "spring-loaded web-page" that I've been straining to see implemented. Wonderful! Very glad to be wrong!

- *NB: Ning's "Comment Wall" instroduces almost 100% entropy by shattering the thread; this is more like Discussion on wiki UserProfile pages than anything else.*
Let me start a blog thread with you ... I spent a while exploring yours and other blogs on NewMedia ... re-finding Tom Atlee had me in flash-back mode; dug up some of my stuff from '95 ... plenty to explore!
cheers
p.s. a still-born project from back-when: "The Green Future Foundation" ... magnetizing collective intelligence is ever-fresh!

- Sepp! How very nice! As I go about my morning ritual I'm composing a reply in my mind to what /seems/ to be a very legit DreamHost donation.
It's the first time I've set out a begging bowl (though I've been a street musician on and off since '78) so I wasn't positive that the originating address was the donor.
Thanks so very much! And very kind of you ... I won't sing the blues here but let's just say it makes a substantial difference. Very good of you to respond; good to know that such as you are out there.
cheers

Teemu Arina said… - Don't know about Stephen. About the finnish smart-kid post:
- ammount of schoolwork depends of institution, I atleast had more than I could cope
- test requirements are defined by curriculum, so there is standardization, but not something like SAT
I would say, that one reasons why we do well is that we are a small country, there are more teachers per number of students than in many other countries. Many schools are more based on groupwork, but universities are very much the lecture format.
The prime reason though, is the quality of school food. We have very healthy and nutritious food in schools, that keeps people awake.
