-Yup. [[w:]] works [[en:]] doesn't. I know w: is depracated in favor of en: on the 'pedia.
+==Brief Introduction to The Concept of Consumerium==
-:This is mystic. Suddenly both [[en:]] and [[w:]] work the same way. [[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 23:24 Aug 26, 2003 (EEST)
+From the consumption perspective Consumerium is about enabling a shift from affective buying behaviour based on illusions to affective buying behaviour based on [[features|information]] on the social and environmental impacts of the production and naturally the perceived quality of the product.
-::[[en:]] and [[w:]] work the same way only on talk:-pages. I'll mention this to the developers when I get my irc working
+We hope to achieve this by building two, consumer accessible, complementary facilities:
+*[[Content Wiki|The Content Wiki]] where we hope people will build an abundance of '''neutral information''' about products and their production processes and all involved factors. The integrity of this information will be negotiated and upheld by peer review in a similar manner as in [[Wikipedia]], The Free Encyclopedia and furthermore by maintaining a backend data storage called The Consumerium Vault which mostly validates the existance or non-existance of things the articles in The Content Wiki claim to refer to. The goal of the Content Wiki is to be '''objective'''.
-Hmm. The new front page is over 768 pixels in height, but it's better then the previous mess IMHO [[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 19:03 Jun 5, 2003 (EEST)
+*[[The Consumerium Exchange]] - Where strictly formed datastructures are used to record, archive and enable the aggregation of information on the popularity of different '''opinions''', mostly in the form of competing [[campaign]]s on issues related to production and consumption. The Consumerium Exchange is very rigid internally, but the view it provides to consumers and producers alike is very fluid and based on ones '''subjective preferences'''.
-OK. Lets start using this [[(NEW)]] to indicate major new items at least on the front page. Keep the [[(NEW)]] text there for ....say.... half an week. That should do it for our regulars.
+Both of these facilities will be accessible through the Internet, but we hope to work together with the retailers of the world, who seek an competitive advantage by providing a better shopping experience for their clients, to bring access to the '''shelf front''' via [[short-range wireless]] connections, optimally [[Bluetooth]], for zero cost to the consumer.
+...to be continued...
