A must watch video there about our consumer economy.

"The Story of Stuff Project was created by Annie Leonard to leverage and extend the film’s impact. We amplify public discourse on a series of environmental, social and economic concerns and facilitate the growing Story of Stuff community’s involvement in strategic efforts to build a more sustainable and just world. Our on-line community includes over 150,000 activists and we partner with hundreds of environmental and social justice organizations worldwide to create and distribute our films, curricula and other content."

Amazing how easy it is for anybody to get hold of sensitive data. I am not sure what is the purpose of a hard disk in a copy machine. They should not have these. The copy machine wants extra money for deleting images or encrypting.

Very interesting idea, I think OLEDs are still very expensive but they have started to show up in consumer electronics in small sizes. This combined with 10GUI.com interface enhancements and it would be awesome.

I still wish there was a way to do more tactile keyboard. My wish is a gel keyboard win with you partly immerse your fingers and keys are configurable in software.

I am using Toodledo.com (very ugly web interface but good functionality) with Ultimate To Do iphone app which can sync with Toodledo and it has been working out pretty well.

I agree a To Do list that is not always with you is not an effective list.

I have tried all the ones you mentioned except Todoist and none of them is as effective as my current solution.

Another nice thing with Toodledo is that they have a good and simple API that can be used to make it available on other smartphones as an offline app.

Is there a possibility of creating a pool of non-accredited investors that solve the problems pointed out by the second article?

I think it is a neat idea and I have not seen such an app yet.The idea can be called micro-investing or micro-entrepreneur.

What would be the business model of the company facilitating this transaction (the startup)? Commission on transaction or commission on profits or both?

They killed so many civilians without any apparent reason with such brutality and impunity including this 9 year old whose brain came out and fell between his father's feet as he watched him die.

Worst of all they denied it all and told the congress they were defending themselves. They were acquitted in the court for all counts and I would not be surprised if they were acquitted for killing this young innocent child.

This is not an isolated incident and these were not the only rogue mercenaries in Iraq. It seems we have forgotten our values of liberty and justice for all.
