"In a recent interview, [[Howard Rheingold]] (author of Smart Mobs) discussed the possibility of a 'new economic system' born of 'unconscious cooperation' embodied by such technologies as [[Google]] links and [[Amazon.com]] lists, [[Wikipedia]], [[worn device|wireless device]]s using [[unlicensed spectrum]], [[blog|Web logs]], and [[open source software]]." [[Trolls]] of course defy this model and are very often accused of conciously cooperating in [[troll organization]]s. | "In a recent interview, [[Howard Rheingold]] (author of Smart Mobs) discussed the possibility of a 'new economic system' born of 'unconscious cooperation' embodied by such technologies as [[Google]] links and [[Amazon.com]] lists, [[Wikipedia]], [[worn device|wireless device]]s using [[unlicensed spectrum]], [[blog|Web logs]], and [[open source software]]."

We had markets, then we had capitalism, and socialism was a reaction to industrial-era capitalism. There's been an assumption that since communism failed, capitalism is triumphant, therefore humans have stopped evolving new systems for economic production.'" - [http://slashdot.org/articles/04/08/17/2138201.shtml?tid=95&tid=1] That of course is an assumption only of the capitalist elite in countries where all economic development has stalled. [[Trolls]] continue the development anyway, and would consider this idea that communism "failed" to be, simply, stupidity. The emergence of the [[Wikipedia Red Faction]] proves it is still very viable. | ||

Both would seem to differ from the [[Bomis]] view that [[Wikimedia corruption]] and intense dispute over [[factionally defined]] terms provides the highest profits - for Bomis alone. | ||
According to eWeek, Brydon "dismissed the notion that goodwill alone will motivate people to join and become engaged in [[social network]]ing. | According to eWeek, Brydon "dismissed the notion that goodwill alone will motivate people to join and become engaged in [[social network]]ing. �No way,� Brydon said. �The '''favor economy''' is where we started, and we quickly moved to the '''barter economy''' and then the economy economy. It�s an ideological point that will become a real issue for what to do to move things along faster [in this industry].� How this all relates to [[ecological yield]] and growth in [[natural capital]], only [[trolls]] can say probably. No doubt they will. |
