People can:

  • Organize Projects into Tasks & Subtasks
  • Prioritize them
  • Specify resources (people, time, facilities, equipment, etc.) necessary for completion
  • Volunteer resources for Projects/Tasks/Subtasks
  • Etc.
...and there is a Voting/Polling System embedded in this.
Is this what you guys/gals have in mind?
Hi Lisa,

I think you are spot on with what I want to achieve with this. Put it all in a nice,
attractive and easy to use web package and we will be changing the world!

It's so nice to see that there actually are some souls out there who
resonates with this! Thank you for your attention!

Sollve, I still think that it is a great idea... I was just unsure how to find what you were looking for... (so often I come up with an idea only to find that it doesn't exist yet)...

I still have the quick-results version of what we talked about... in the forum set-up... http://www.thetruthpuzzle.net/100thMonkey/ (just as an example)


but I like the expansion capability of the program itself a lot more than my idea and would switch over to it in a split second...

let me know how I can help further this into actuality..

Great idea Solve!

One suggestion though after reviewing your site; you may consider changing the name and remove 2012 from it. It will be here before you know it and if your site is successful and has a great following you may find your site outdated just because of the name after 2012. Just a suggestion.

Nice site though!

Peace

found a free download for an expandable "ToDoList" project management tool...(for use with windows operating system)... looks pretty good and fairly simple to use...

explore other available *free* project programs on CNET downloads (http://download.cnet.com/1770-20_4-0...rName=&filter=)

Hi there!
I've been thinking about the name thing aswell. I thought of theNewWorldOrder at first but the domain was taken and for sale at bids no lower than $5000. The100thMonkey was also taken. If you have a name you find fitting for this, don't hesitate to tell me!

Spread the word! The more people that has the chance to be inspired by our work the bigger chance someone will resonate with all this and help to get there. That's what I feel will take this further. You seem to be a 'starter' or 'start up' person. Keep developing your idea about how this could look as long as you feel inspired. If what you do makes you inspired it's not a very hard work anyway. :-) When the inspiration fades you're on the wrong path.

A thought popped up in my mind and I thought I would ask you about it. I'm pushing kind of hard on that you should follow your inspiration, to spread the word and so on and I wonder if it perhaps would be easier to identify with the information presented on the home page if it was anonymized? Would it be easier for you to present it to others if there were no names etc. on the site?

The backside of that could be that people start asking themselves why no one dares to put their name on it. If no one else does it, why should I?

What do you think about this?

I am forging on with my inspirational guidance... and you are right... when i am on the right path- it is so fun, it only becomes work when I don't like what i am doing...

on the name, don't stop at the "1" you picked but was unavailable...

do a brainstorming session on possible variations... (time yourself for 2 minutes and write down everything that comes to mind- don't edit- just write).

then pick the 3 or 4 choices that appeal to you the most and see which is available...

ready, set, go...

be the 100th monkey
100th monkey efforts
100th monkey tree
counting monkeys
grab the 100th monkey idea
100th monkey possibilty
who is the 100th monkey
100th monkey minds
monkey100
---------------

you get the jist of it...

I am putting my name on several things at this point... I sent out an email, made flyers to pass around at the mall, etc.

I would be easier to be faceless and nameless, but that IMHO is just continuing the secrecy of the current regime'...

BUT, (a very big "but" here) you have to be willing to risk the bullseye that you are putting on yourself... and only you can decide that...

I totally understand what you mean here. I'm a true believer that you must go 'all in' in every aspect if you are to achieve something here, including putting your full name, adress whatever to really put yourself in support of what you want to achieve. I'm still hesitating to putt my FULL name on the website, I even took away my registration data from the WHOIS records... At this time it feels right to do it, don't know why exactly..

I saw your list on names and I must say that countingmonkeys.com really resonated with me! Awesome! You see! I would never have come up with that! The power of the many is so cool and this is just another proof that we all complete eachother. I will register that domain at once and at the beginning I guess I'll just point it to the2012alliance.com.

Again, AWESOME!!

With LOVE!

I just thought of something else I would like some help with. There's alot of you here that speaks english on a daily basis and it would be awesome if you could give me some grammatical feedback on the presentation material on the2012alliance.com. English is not my mother language so there's probably some errors of every possible kind there.

Many thanks in advance!

With Love!

After viewing your site, the Vision and Core Beliefs, which really have my heart this last sentence struck me the most :

***We also believe it’s just as important to learn from those who don’t share our beliefs as it is from those who do.***

Many, many thanks for sharing your positive experiences with the material! Even though I would like to hear about what's not so good as well to be able to further improve it.

Take care in the game of life!
