Subscribe to the 1000 True Fans – 1000 Global Villages campaign:

2008 was a big year for us at Factor e Farm. Here is a review and the latest news.We were a little quiet for a couple weeks – our wireless internet went out in the cold weather – so we finally decided to cure our intermittent internet ills by getting a land line with 1.5M service. It was installed yesterday, and now we hope that there will be no more interruptions to our postings.We are presently accelerating the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) development – to an ambitious goal of completing the entire set within two years. The clock is ticking – and we are kicking off the “1000 True Fans – 1000 Global Villages campaign“. We call it the 1000 Squared campaign. The 1000 Squared campaign aims to gather the support of at least 1000 people – who commit to support our work with $10 per month for the next 2 years. We are using a PayPal subscription button – where you commit to the support at the click of a few buttons. If you really believe in what we are doing – support us and make the GVCS happen at a much higher pace than what we are doing right now. We’ve gained enough experience to understand the open source development process – and we’ve also proven to ourselves that crowd funding is a viable way to collect support. We are committed to stand behind this campaign – so the question is – how quickly can we get to our goal? Who will be the first subscriber?Below you will see a video – first in a series – that begins to put our work into context – including the 1000 Squared campaign. The videos aim to clarify our goals – as to how the whole package fits together. This is the first part in the Factor e Live Distillations series – where we provide more in-depth coverage of the context for our work- so that viewers can begin to appreciate the true scope. If you are not familiar with our work, this is a good place to start.

If you subscribe to support the 1000 True Fans campaign, you will also be invited to join the OSE Social Network – news forthcoming – which is a dedicated network for the support and deployment of the GVCS. To help us keep the discussions on track, we are limiting membership only to supporters. There are ways other than money to become a supporter – more information is forthcoming. So if you want to support us – take the red pill – and dare to change the world. Here is the PayPal subscription button, where you can use either PayPal, credit card, or bank account to commit to the subscription.

As a last note, the GVCS technology base is just the first step in a program of transformation. Liberatory technology is a prerequisite to any program of societal transformation – so we can talk of novel societal organization patterns only when post-industrial technology is available. Such technology is a solid foundation for freedom and prosperity at the least – and conversion to a Peer-to-Peer economy at the very best.
