Ideas Don't Change the World. People Do!

After starting this experiment I thought about the ideas that have changed the world for good and for evil. That is why I am happy this is not a new idea as 'gift economies' operate in our everyday interactions. Although just putting ideas out there seems to change very little. Marx and Engels put forth ideas and that mushroomed into Communist Russia. These types of upheavals will be unlikely to occur because of this blog! Although little things to make the world of difference. That is why (while having this idea) I had been setting up my new websites and thinking about what I could do with spare time and resources if the business was successful. So here you have it, I am giving away assistance with website design and probably more to demonstrate a gift economy.

This is taking action rather than just talking about something. I hope, as this experiment progresses I can post about others doing similar things. I will have to delve into the internet a little further to find that out. Though even if you want to offer your services to people I think it is explained pretty well on my new website Double Foot Productions which is the one offering 'gift economy' help. None of this has any money involved but is a 'gifting' resource when time allows me to help others. I currently run three websites (four including this one) so I will also be posting a bit on 'free' stuff. I will of course be discussing Open Source software and developers and testers and users and anyone that may or may not know the influence of this kind of software.

I hope this has been an interesting discussion so far and be sure to view my other sites to see how it is all progressing. I will be posting about this site on those other sites as well (except my comedy one, because it wouldn't make sense to have a serious post on there!) Take care everyone and have a wonderful day!
