User talk:N8chz
Pubwan is a nice set of links. Nice work. You should add Recyclopedia (a superset of Wikipedia that has a much better management paradigm) and Metaweb (working on new tools to process things like the Consumerium:intermediate page, in fact that idea came from them), and other essential projects and interesting projects we have listed.
It would be really ideal if you created a bunch of articles on these topics in particular:
- appropriate technology - an issue we've got into here lately, see audio and Consumerium buying signal and User:DanKeshet/scratchpad and the debate over Hardware requirements and the terminal devices.
- initial pubwan offering - any good self-funding or pilot ideas? How can this grow into healthy signal infrastructure ?
- large scale cataloging of package deals - like buying coops? We call these factions and support institutional buying criteria they share
- leveling the data mining playing field - we call this research wiki
- appliances
- community planning
- housing
- "environment" is something that should not exist, we are talking about specific comprehensive outcomes for various ecoregions and species, and w:public bads like deforestation or extinction.
- trailer park and semi trailer are intriguing - like a book bus?
- recruiting the Consumerium:contributor - which you call "information volunteer"
Please, though, we have enough abstract terminology! We don't need to talk about "virtual objects" and other such non-terms here. We need if anything to focus on the concretes, so your input at Consumerium User Stories, best cases, etc., is welcomed particularly.
Hi N8chz,
Great to see you here. I've always been so happy to see your edits to voting systems articles on Wikipedia.
Peace,
Welcome to Consumerium N8czh. Pubwan is of high interest to us here at consumerium. Expecially the link to http://www.upcdatabase.com/ that you've provided might prove enormously valuable to Consumerium:Itself. I hope you enjoy contributing to our cause --Juxo 13:30, 13 Mar 2004 (EET)
*large scale cataloging of package deals - like buying coops? We call these factions and support institutional buying criteria they share
Actually, what I (Lorraine Lee, aka n8chz) had in mind here is simply the linearization of nonlinear pricing schemes. I understand that pricing is not a primary concern of Consumerium. Prices are said to contain information, though. I can see how you do not want Consumerium to degenerate into a "shop bot."
*recruiting the Consumerium:contributor - which you call "information volunteer"
My mama told me never to volunteer information. I don't see that strategy resulting in Consumerium or pubwan.
Please, though, we have enough abstract terminology! We don't need to talk about "virtual objects" and other such non-terms here. We need if anything to focus on the concretes, so your input at Consumerium User Stories, best cases, etc., is welcomed particularly.
Sorry if I have confused. I too am confused, as I lack the vocabulary to describe the models I visualize, so I look up things. Sometimes the result is disappointing.
