Humanity's Party Invitation 1 : WWINTAT ScotsEconomics

ScotsEconomics is the home of every way in which cross-cultural love and entrepreneurial practices systemically interface with valuing economics and vice versa. My father helped coin the term Entreprenurial Revolution for this, where revolution implies that we are concerned to map all systemic levels including:
micro, eg what individual entrepreneurs do that values economics
macro, whether a global market sector values or devalues entrepreneurial people
inter, every level and economic dynamic in between, which today has many new media interfaces of the www interactive kind as well as the 20th Century's broadcast one-way kind

Going back to the 1800 origin of entrepreneur (preneur in French connotes take back) the Scots entrepreneurial & economic lenses are specifically interested in occasions when places or the whole world is undergoing extraordinary change from the perspective of whether the compound consequences will sustain or destroy local communities. We will provide some extracts from writings around 1840 of Scot James Wilson (founder of The Economist) to illustrate this demand to see that healthy society generates strong economics over time, not vice versa.

It is also the case that in modern times (ie industrial revolution on), the Scots became one of the first worldwide networked nations. Before the web, most of our peoples lived outside Scotland and have cross-cultural representation in more places around the world than most nations. (Happy to list any other nation who qualifies top edit global village economic observations)

Moreover, our clan structure has always insisted that economics fully appreciate the compound productivities and learning curves that come from inter-generation focus to a deep innovation pursuit

Moreover, as an early survivor of having what was then the world's biggest Empire take us over , we are particular conscious about where economics includes open and collaborative models of democracy that care for the smallest future voice or make courageous attempts to ensure that no race or creed is systemised around here as underclass or in other ways discriminated against. We can wholly sympathise which such parallel economic and social reforms as Gandhi (see Einsteins review of the compound economic value of his leadership)

ScotsEconomics is also concerned with sustainability investment , mapping social network 5 by 5's and open collaboration around the deepest future history gravities and the way these can systemically inform the most valued innovations that humanity develops

Humanity's Party : Invitation 2 Billanthropy Squared?

According to our 1984 future history which entreprenurial revolutionary readers devoured in five languages (update genre reference : Freidman World is Flat), 2006 is the 23rd year into the greatest communications revolution - one of such global times local magnitude that should we fail to design the most transparent globalsiation systems to include the smalest voices in the future, the system will take us exponentially through the hell-like world of Orwell's Big Brother, or worse: the end of children anywhere by 2100. Quite an Inconveient Truth. Quite a WWINTAT. In our 984 book, the way to resolve this was between a marriage of the scale of world service broadcasters like the BBC and the iterative searching from every local coordinate that the likes of google and changemakers web jams could offer. This isn't happening, and now needs networkers to linkin to enormous pledgemaking parties for humanity if we are to free the governors of the BBC so their chief correspondents like David Attenborough (nature) can ask crisis questions however inconvenient it may be when no immediate soundbite answers make sense. Hey we are a colaborative elarning species - saying I dont know is ok to a question that needs worldwide collaboration to answer

If the BBC will not help sustain humanity, will the world's richest philanthropy epicentre open source a world service?


Could Billanthropy Squared be a way to change sustainability and humanity of global media for ever?


Billanthropy is The Economist's brand of Bill Gate's Microsoft2.0 -the intended antidote to spreadsheeting the world into boxes, where the poorest always get to be the human remnants (a label I dislike that a personnel director of a Big 5 accounting firm used in presentations of how HR's main competence was firing the most innovative, because innovators take more than 90 days to pay back which doesnt match CEO's rewards any longer)

It's just that Billanthropy could end up being a bit top down unless civic society ensures it open sources - a business model Bill may not be world's most experienced at, though actually I am confident he will be. so what's the first step in Bill Squared?

I think I have innovated a way forward to get any deeply concerned virtual community to debate which Change The World (CTW) methods it values most, or even wholly knows of

if you have a minute to test browse, click here

I can't recall if you have to register before it will let you see; this is the community space where nearly 15000 people interested in exploring microfinance communicate thanks to the gracious hosting of Pierre and Pam Omidyar

Naturally since they are among the most innovative CTW resources of 2006, this is also a no-cost marketing format that aims to get people to have a look at Ashoka's 16 global academy videos -or any other entrepreneurially revolutionary methods - and debate how they can be related to other significant happenings like how civil society can influence Billanthropy - the world's biggest philanthropist's web, or getting Blair's people's judges on the G8's promises to Africa connected everywhere humanitarians chatter. The latter is particularly urgent if we are to succeed in furthering Grajew's 2 aims on Africa as I understand them:

*make the world social forum in Kenya in January more exciting for economic reform than the world economic forum; not too difficult if we remember to politely ask schwab to collaborate
*up the annual ante for global corporates who do or dont join benchmarking syndicates on sustainability valuation

------
note: of course what can be laid out is constrained by the lowest common denominator of what virtual community software permits- so I realise the format isn't the prettiest in the world- but a question for you- what other virtual communities should this conversation format be tested in next?
