Pledge __ hours of research help to others in the community (on
topics of their choosing), if three others pledge to do the same.
Build visibility and relationships with other NextEdgers
- Do New Currency subgroup members think a pilot is worth
doing?
- Are creators of pledge apps (eg Beex) willing to customize their
solutions for a subgroup pilot?
- Will participants in the pilot find it useful?
- If they do, will a Kickstarter or similar pledge drive get enough
backing to prepare a NextEdge-wide community solution?
1) Evaluate fit of pledge sites (http://beex.org,
http://pledgebank.org, etc) for NextEdge love bombs
2) Create simple web site for Next Edgers to create, issue, track
redemption of personal "gift certificates of time", and a rating
system for recipients to leave feedback on completion of each
project
3) Approach Tribesourcing/Crowd Fund subgroup on Next Edge about a
joint pilot project
4) Do beta test with one or more admired NextEdgers as initial Love
Bomb recipients
5) Improve the system based on the beta test
6) Conduct a full-fledged Next Edge pilot
7) "Productize" the system as an open source app that can be shared
with other Next Edge-aligned tribes
2) NextEdgers now lack a system to offer help – and to receive ratings/references that lift value of their personal currencies
