I would criticize it’s slogan of being the Encyclopedia of beliefs. I don’t really like the word belief, it’s got somekind of religious connotation I think. I’d prefer they call it Encyclopedia of opinions and arguments. It should have more than just tags to organize all the opinions, opinions should be linked to each other. People should vote for the ways to organize opinions, people should subscribe to their favourite subjects, it should work together with LinkedFeed.com to provide a mix of News from Blogs and Opinions from this centralised opinions organising system.

The goal of this project should be to provide a way of letting everyone have their opinions be heard, that everyone can influence the world, that this should be an attempt at revolutionizing democracy, as the goal is this system should highlight the truth about every topic, thus politicians currently in power should be afraid of doing things against the publics opinion. This system should organize the public opinion.

Opinions about Facts. Facts to support Opinions. Arguments to support Opinions.

Blogs and RSS are a mess because they mix News linking, News sourcing and random opinions. There needs to be a system that links News sources and Facts sources with the public opinion about ways to comment on facts and about actions that should be taken in the future to develop the status of the News and Facts stories. Wikipedia is the Fact. Blogs are the News. And something like Standpoint or TruthEngine needs to come to enable the public to express their opinions and organise them reliably.

Each opinion should have a very elaborate amount of Arguments in different length linked to it. As well as links to the News and Facts that back up the Opinion. Everyone can add to the agreeing with each opinion, Argument and News and Fact link. And then the Opinion should be organized into its most precise place. Somekind of topic categorization mixed with tagging and interest categories.

Organizing the truth on the internet

Filed under: Democracy — Charbax @ 5:14 pm

Lots of Web 2.0 applications are being invented and programmed these days. Yesterday I discovered one great one at http://linkedfeed.com that can make you suggestions for news Items and feeds which should interest you.

Blogs are about news, where everyone posts new threads which are timed. Such organization is not best suited for opinions. Opinions on the internet need some better organisation and more advanced algorithms need to be implemented so that all peoples understandings about all topics make the most sence. Because still today the internet is a mess. Google is trying, yahoo, digg, feedster, technorati and many others are trying.

And then there is art. This is timeless inspirational production which is becomming democratic because of the internet. So much talent is about to be organised, so that it can reach its deserved audience. So much talent that it might be overwhelming to experience unless working habits are also revolutionized.

I want to provide this Truth organisation at my project site http://truthengine.com , that is if I am to be succesfull enough to work with programmers who can and want to help me to make it happen. If you can do it or if you want to invest a few million $ in it then it sure will happen here.

Democratic revolution

Filed under: Democracy — Charbax @ 2:21 am

End of representative democracy. Representative democracy was invented before we had computers, internet, telephones, TV and newspapers. Representative democracy is not suitable in our broadband society. We need to revolutionize democracy. Organize facts and opinions.
