Announcing the Open Cafe
Via Nathan Cravens:
From http://opencafemain.wikispot.org/:
"The Open Cafe fuses the age old tradition of the potluck with the contemporary Open Source movement to share company, food, drink, and more in a community environment created anew with every day. A wiki page maintained by a community describes each day's menu and schedule of events for a physical location in your area. You, the participant, can establish a location, make the menu and event schedule as you please, anytime, day or night.
Did you discover no one is bringing coffee—the almighty nectar of the Gods—on Sunday? Fill in the blank by listing the type of Coffee and quantity you bring on the day's menu. No events happening? Set a time for a reading of your favorite poetry for others. No furniture good for reading? Bring out that old love seat from storage or invite others to join the cause! You remember your friend Mary is a painter; ask if she'd like to contribute artwork to the collective. You get the idea?
It is the web and emerging read/write culture that brings the activity of the Open Cafe to life. The ability to choose and Make life is the engine that will soon drive all forms of social organization. The Open Cafe is but a taste of an abundant way of living, one person and one Cafe at a time."
See you there! ;)
