what he said.
I read and complette agree. couldn't have said this better, so i didn't
I would like to see Urgent Evoke drive users into community service. As a developer, I am much more interested in the 'how,' so I'd really like to see this become a MMORPG mobile app. Using GPS (and multi-tasking now in all mobile smart phones) Urgent Evoke could give a task like, "volunteer for 1 hour at a food pantry" and track where its users are. For each hour spent volunteering, the user would get…

my head to my heart
The Furthest distance I've ever known is from my head to my heart

water fountain
When I was a kid in school I made friends in line or the water fountain after recess. Now that I've left New Jersey and work with kids in California I've realized that these kids are waiting in even longer lines. Since I've been introduced to the wh*** merry-go-round water pump thing I'm thinking "why aren't we putting this in every school". Saving energy and not letting kids wait til they are 22 to understand the water crisis that effects everyone. Let them know that this technology is used…

Constraint
- Innovation (often) comes from constraint (If you’ve got very few resources, you’re forced to be very creative in using and reusing them.)
I love this secret. Recently I feel that we are just trying to make things easier and easier but focusing on the wrong things in life. I saw an iphone commercial where a woman talks about forgetting to turn off the lights in her living room before going on vacation. If she was really considering the world and its needs she would never…

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
