As information becomes increasingly open, and we are presented with an endless wealth of knowledge, finding the right words is increasingly important. Until you can combine the phrases to articulate the thoughts that you have, it used to be that you’d struggle to communicate. Now you will also miss out on what has already been […]

Big Mother
I’ve had enough of all this damn choice, I’d like a gentle dictator to allow me to focus on the elements of life I enjoy. All the other bull I can do without. Who wants to remove the choice for me? I’ll give you a monthly budget, and my needs. You can tell me what […]
The internet for designers, an introduction
One day you may compete with amateurs, and consumer collectives. Right now the the internet can give you the power to create and sell with ease. The old methods of distribution can be ignored, likewise the old methods of production (on some production techniques) are no longer necessary. Therefore the 2 obstacles to creating reality […]
Tap into the knowledge pool
Chances are your organisation is hierarchical in its format. As a result your organisation is engaging in a process of constant self monitoring and filtering to fit with what your employees perceive as the company line. Few ideas will make it up the chain, and if they do, the person who had them will have […]
A way to end spam forever
Spammers are tirelessly creative in new ways that never cease to amaze, constantly seeking out new ways to penetrate the inner sanctum of my inbox.

I hate the […]
Social Inertia
Another social phenomenon, which I first observed (or moreso interpreted) whilst out with a drunken group of freinds and trying to leave the pub to move to the next one. The polite thing to do is to let everyone know that you’re going after this drink and then get ready to leave. Two hours later, […]

Wikiparliament is where politics meets the peer society (ebay, wikipedia, amazon, ect) and power and with it responsibility are returned to society. Wikiparliament will begin outside of the current political template and through the blueprint below transfer the publics […]
Futurescript
The books we read influence our thoughts and ideas, they create our historical view and also with respect to science fiction our view of what the future will hold. These are containers for memes (Dawkins idea virus’s) that can perpetuate and take hold in the mind of the reader. Given the power of books and […]
Knowledge Distillation
How many books, concepts and ideas can be surmissed far more concisely than they are. Whilst there is beauty to be found in expanding an argument, and justification and evidence is required. Do we all need to read all the evidence for everything? We already take so much as read and this process already happens, […]
