Da's uns im Geschäft ein wenig langweilig war, haben wir un's so einen Spreadshirt-Shop eingerichtet - und als erstes Motiv gibt's NATÜRLICH ein Jacko Memorial Shirt. Who's Bad - Who's Dead? Wer blickt's? Hihi. Ist zwar jetzt nicht soooo günstig, aber die Quali ist tiptop (american Apparel)..... Schaut's halt mal nei!
"I think it takes a while for government and politicians to get used to big changes in technology. It took a long time for parliament to adapt to the television age. "
George Osborne, MP
SYNOPSIS
In his student flat in Colchester, Jack Howe is staring intently into his computer screen. He is picking the team for Ebbsfleet United's FA Trophy Semi-Final match against Aldershot . Around the world 35,000 other fans are doing the same thing, because together, they own and manage the football club. If distributed networks of people can run complex organisations such as football clubs, what else can they do?
Us Now takes a look at how this type of participation could transform the way that countries are governed. It tells the stories of the online networks whose radical self-organising structures threaten to change the fabric of government forever.
Us Now follows the fate of Ebbsfleet United, a football club owned and run by its fans; Zopa, a bank in which everyone is the manager; and Couch Surfing, a vast online network whose members share their homes with strangers.
The founding principles of these projects -- transparency, self-selection, open participation -- are coming closer and closer to the mainstream of our social and political lives. Us Now describes this transition and confronts politicians George Osborne and Ed Milliband with the possibilities for participative government as described by Don Tapscott and Clay Shirky amongst others.
