#IdeaTag I'd like to see whether a company could be crowdsourced from scratch. The world's first crowdsourced company. What social tools would you need to achieve that? How would you attract the right people for the company? How would you generate awareness?

Voting app is one tool, but what about others? And could we use existing social networks to communicate? Interested to hear your ideas on suggested products? I'll have a think about this too.

I definitely think existing social networks are a great sounding board for ideas and to find the right mix of people interested in working on a particular project. The difficulty is in keeping the process 'open' enough to encourage the crowdsourcing of ideas, while protecting the resulting ideas and ensuring there is some potential to commercialise them and result in some sort of...

#IdeaTag #Pledger A service that enables people to grow an alternative value network and exchange system. A pledge is used to create value. Pledges can be created out of one or more types of thing (items, time, service, etc). A Pledge's value is determined through open exchange and/or Pledge Auctions. Possibly a network of localised systems.
