I just joined today, after hearing Jane McGonnigal's TED speech. I am intruiged by this wh*** idea. Even after just two blog posts, it is as if some cogs are turning in my head. But I ponder..
Will my efforts have any effect? Will they be seen, and by who? Am I doing the typing just to have it vanish into cyberspace, because nobody will read my posts, or because my oppinions and ideas are insignificant compared to others?
I'm not asking you to read my posts (well, sure, you can, but thats not the point of this message). I am asking how I can make sure that I get "out there", even if all I can offer are my little ideas. Can I even compare against the other brilliant minds?
I don't have a long education. I've been working for the last five years, since I dropped out of school. I suppose that shouldn't hinder me in any way, but how could my thoughts hold up against those who "know what they talk about"? I guess that someone might stumble across my blogs at some point and an idea will spring off it. Or maybe not. Who knows?
Dear Alchemy, When you get a minute please try to have a look at my blog for Evidences. On the Social innovation mission, I added Collectively we know all what is known! and Embrache market mechnism!, I also named The Bill Clinton Foundation and the ABCP philanthropies as my role model. On the Food security mission, I added The seven seas, our number One Garden and Food security in my backyard. All these evidences have been well received by the 9000 + agents and my 100 + friends. Please don't hesitate to comment and support! Talk to you soon, Regards
Hi Alchemy! are we going to still have access to this network and the uploaded resources after the game ends? this seems to be an amazing knowledge-base we are creating - i would value having access to these after May 12th, is this possible?
Alchemy will be the driving wheel towards the sucess of the visions.his comments are so ptimistic in nature. more so my visions are so transparent and prudent bcos of my experience in terms of tremendeous incomfortability life style. the major innovation should come from one's experiences, challenges, down falls, readiness to take more future challenges!
I just thought of a new kind of mission/game
It would be quite fun and creative if there was a game for people in either video/picture form must design there very own EVOKE add which promotes the game in a positive light. If some of the adds are good then the EVOKE team could possibly use them in there promotion setup? its just a thought and I wanted to know what you think?
Alchemy, a great idea just hit me. Maybe for a mission objective, everyone should create a cartoon/super hero version of themselves and describe the features in detail. For example, if they chose green as a costume they could go on to explain what that color means to them. Also they could have one unique power, and describe how that power could change the world. Even the environment in the background could have some significance. Then post it as their own "Hero" and put it as their display picture. Creative way to get to know each other and see everyone's part in making the world a better place.

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. 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
In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

All of the out of date foodstuffs have been automaticaly thrown away by the fridge, they will be recycled tomorrow as animal feed or something. I see i have organic local eggs and some local cheese. Foods are vacc** sealded for easy…See More
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
The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.

Does my message make any sense at all? :P
