Hi!
 
Welcome to [[Gerry|my]]my little corner of the Web.  You are welcome to come in and visit, stay for a moment or make your own space here.  Please, create an account and a profile, I'm really interestinginterested in hearing about how everyone else is coming together, collaborating and building a shared future.
Most of the time, I am busy building open tools for collaboration like [[http://wagn.org|Wagn]]Wagn, [[git@github.com:GerryG/wagn-cldstr.git|Federated Wiki]]Metacurrency, and [[http://newcurrencyfrontiers.com/|Metacurrency]]git@github.com:GerryG/wagn-cldstr.git,, and learning and new [[process architecture|architectures]]architectures thatto complement these tools.
Many of us have been working together and seperatelyseparately towards a vision we can barely articulate to ourselves, and I, for one, am much encouraged by the movements of young people acrossaround the world.  I don't pretend to have all the answers,answers and I am following in the footsteps of countless visionaries who have created a foundation for this work.  Most of us have heard of Albert Einstien,Einstein, fewer have heard of BuckmisterBuckminster Fuller, and evenstill fewer of Doug Englebart whose team invented the mouse and much of what we take for granted in desktop computing today.
 
The first thing to notice is that in naming theseonly visionaries, we are overlooking many-manymany. moremany others who also contributed to making these visions possible.  We don't acknowledge these leaders for doing all the work, but for articulating the vision and extending an invitation and a place to join in.  I'm inviting you to join in too.  My vision is to completecontinue the work of the visionaries.open-ended  Well,vision notof complete,the youvisionaries, don'tto completemake anmore openof endedthe vision,vision butreal, to makebring itmore real,of tothe bringvision it to life.
Englebart's vision of learning organizations collaborating in the construction of knowledge repositories is complemented by the commons base peer production capacities developed in open source software and now being adapted for new kinds of production.  While I love the scope of Fuller's geometrical visions, they are mainly a solitary vision that needed "buy-in" from the structures of economy and production to move forward.
