The Intelligent Community

The intelligent community concept is a good one. We definitely need a business model other than rape and pillage capitalism and the term, intelligent community, brings to mind the concept of a global village.

If you visit The Intelligent Community Initiative Website, you will be impressed by the business/community model as an approach that leads to non-coercive cooperation stimulated by reward and linked through a communications hub.

An Intelligent Community, an answer to prisoners' dilemma in game theory(1), would consist of
  • The School For The Intelligent Community;

  • The Intelligent Community web site; and,

  • The Business Incubation and Facilitation Division managed by Intelligent Communities, Inc.
If you are interested, please visit the website. I am going to find out what it takes to become a Contributing Member to The Intelligent Community. I will let you know how it works out.

---------------------
1. The prisoners' dilemma illustrates a conflict between individual and group rationality. A group whose members pursue rational self-interest may all end up worse off than a group whose members act contrary to rational self-interest.

Interesting theory... capitalism definitely has its flaws - but it is also the best thing we have found as of yet. Maybe in 10 years we will all belong to this Intelligent Community?

@perro-Thank you for visiting. I am going to explore the concept with the people. I just hope it is not a MLM scheme.

Sadly I am trying to get past the rape , pillage US attitude on Iraq. Thank goodness for the great US people I have met in the Net or I would have written off the States forever.

@jackie-I think bloggers have a greater sense of community because we have friends all over the globe. May the spirit of this spread from the Internet to the world.
