See first the [[essential projects]] that are doing what we are doing, and that we have little choice but to work with and improve.


==Possible sources/gateways of [[Content]]==

*[[Wikipedia]] - The free encyclopedia, all content is under [[GFDL]].

*[[w:Wiktionary|Wiktionary]] - A spin off from wikipedia. The free dictionary and thesaurus in every language if it gets done someday. [[GFDL]] also. Not much happening there now.

*http://wikibooks.org - Yet another great idea being put forward by WikiMedia Foundation. Wikibooks is dedicated to developing and disseminating free, open content textbooks and other classroom texts

* http://www.disinfopedia.org/ -  a collaborative project to produce a directory of public relations firms, think tanks, industry-funded organizations and industry-friendly experts that work to influence public opinion and public policy on behalf of corporations, governments and special interests. And yes, it's in the [[GFDL]] part of the world (Running [[m:Wikipedia3|Wikipedia3]])

* http://www.theyrule.net/ - Topic map style visual presentations of interrelations of [[Companies]] [[Executives]] and stuff in the US mostly. Static mapping so they have an advisory about probably being out-of-date.

* [[Cookbook]]

* [http://now.ohah.net/en/Earth_Reforesting_System "Earth Reforesting System"] - not sure if this is going to work, but, at least they started with mediawiki, so maybe they are just waiting for others to chip in, just like Consumerium did. Mostly in Japanese.

* http://www.environmentaldirectory.net/ - lists over 13.000 organisations dealing with environmental issues in the US
----
==Misc.==

* http://www.aflcio.org/corporateamerica/paywatch/ - Annoy yourself by looking up how much US CEOs' get compensated

* http://globalgreens.org - mailing lists automatically set up for any Green Party - or other groups obeying [http://globalgreens.info Global Greens Charter]

* http://crit.org - annotation software to 'mark up' any site on the web

* http://smartmobs.com - discussion of mobile technologies for politics

* http://slipperycat.com - attempt to nail down ontology for game business - shows what a simple industry looks like from low level code up to production. - a '''stub''' at the moment
