Internet of Communities
(watch this space)
We are increasingly realising how current online infrastructure is unfit for purpose, particularly with regard to managing trust and empowering the creation of social value. The ideas in Supercommunities enable the creation of a new social layer of Internet technology that enhances how individuals and organisations manage their identity online.
The basic idea of the Internet of Communities is to replicate online the way in which we interact offline. In the real world, people and organisations establish trust by sharing information about the communities (geographical and other) to which they belong, along with the contributions to and uses made of the capitals of those communities. This creates an incentive to make such contributions, which builds virtuous circles of social engagement.
