This is awesome! Not only are your ideas interesting & informative, I find them also personally inspiring. I actually just registered for a EdX.org. Taking an economics course & an architecture course.
Thanks I hope you do well in EdX, I would take some courses but I'm already registered for a full load in university so no time for it when the semester starts but I personally liked the idea.
Keeping a pulse on technology is important after all to make a big organization, and to stay ahead of the curve and be ready to invest if someone can start the ball on those types of technologies.
(Especially in cases where Occams Razor simplifies the possibility to the fewest logical steps in a sequence)
The applications of Future technology on Ekistics and its implications in how we view human settlement and city design can be a fun quandry especially when we consider it through the lens of Verstehen.
And the access to that capital to invest in future projects by investing small growing your postions and then snowballing it over time.
(Sorry went a little bit overboard on the words here organizing my folders by type and some of the bigger ideas I was reviewing and applying to this post)
Science
http://www.jove.com/Education forgot about this last time although I cannot think of its P2P applications closest is Phil of The Future Tv screen education
http://www.ccma.ca/And Here's a wonderful website
http://www.zombo.com/p2p email (fully encrypted) would be an interesting concept. The NSA put pressure on Snowden's email provider. What if Sownden didn't have an email provider and instead used a p2p client that connected to a cloud of redundant nodes which contributed disk capacity and bandwidth to store and relay email messages?
Great thing is the network could be designed from the ground up to integrate with Bitcoin at a low level.
@ DeathandTaxes
I think it's called retroshare currently but implemented to a protocol network it would be something else entirely.
http://retroshare.sourceforge.net/The question however becomes how fast can you break it with software such as oclHashcat.
Although if I recall correctly the NSA has funded projects that can break any encryption instantly although I cannot recall what type of computing it was it is well discussed in those fields, if you can enlighten me on the word I am looking for it would be appreciated.
Edit in: On recollection its the field of Quantam computing was what I was thinking of and these type of projects
