    Idea of Consumerium condensed into a few sentences:

    The "mad" explanation:

    Idea of Consumerium is to provide a service, that can be accessed by consumers via the mobile phone of tomorrow, free of charge, where information on qualities and quantities of various goods and the qualities and quantities of the processes that produced them is negotiated in a way which resembles a stock exchange, a democracy and a dictatorship with free speech depending on how you look at it.

    Idea of an new feature:

    The colors and shapes present in a packaging of a certain product. This would be.... mmm... interesting. Datamining this would provide such shocking news as 100% of toothpaste packaging contain the colour white ;) I'll iterate on this Juxo 01:29 Mar 18, 2003 (EET)

    Idea of an new feature:

    Ecologicality of support (administrative) functions. Do they recycle, do they turn off machines that don't need to run during night. Small things but easily assessed, if other proof then the company's own statement is not required.


    Idea of a new feature:

    Distinguish between functional packaging and decorative packaging. Build a packaging matrix to automatically assess pros and cons of different alterenative styles of packaging for some product group Juxo 01:29 Mar 18, 2003 (EET)


    New Hardware Requirement

    Bluetooth keyboards in stores for giving feedback --Juxo 10:46 Mar 21, 2003 (EET)


    Figure out what it would take to make DTDs editable in the Wiki. We would need some special mark-up to determine start and end of code sections, so that all the DTDs could be automatically extracted into a tar ball.


    bullets are from http://www.webfoundry.com.au/graphicslib/indexMain.cfm


    for Bluetooth Car (an off-topic thought of mine):
