50 good ideas!

Circle jerk?

I'm really interested. Let me know what happens. fenris_wolf3000 (at) yahoo.com

i just put up our first site - i'm defintely interested. sales at amazingcontent dot com :)

I have a spare domain or three I could set up a private message board on and make it invite only and not viewable by guests.

Gwave is going to take time, like I said I signed up probably 3 weeks ago for an invite and still nothing. :(

It's a nice thought. One that has been mentioned and tried to some extent for various different issues over the years... obscenity laws, 2257, acacia, dot xxx, etc... there has been several issues over the years. The only one that anyone really worked on together was acaci and that was mainly the "big guys" footing the bill. Other than that most people donated to the FSC and hoped they would fix most of the problems. Stolen content is just another issue in a long list of things that most of the people here will never work together on. People either make money from it, aren't affected that much by it, are lazy and don't care, or just don't know what to do. Trying to get 2 people to see something exactly the same is a challenge, trying to get 5 - 10 is almost impossible.

For a big issue to be solved the only chance that would ever have of happening is for the big guys to put their money on the table, and for them to try to unite everyone together. Companies like playboy instead of sking the site with illegal tubes actually trying to do something about it, other companies like ccbill, big porn companies and hosting companies, etc...

For the "smaller guys" it would be good for you to work together in general for your own benefit. If you are good with programming find someone who needs programming work who is good at design, etc... work together as a team. Or if you are starting out with SEO work find a couple other people at your experience level and help each other out. That is the best way for you to work together with others. Anything else is going to be a waste of your time.

The purpose of this group is not too radical; it is simply to operate as a collective, on agreed upon projects (likely smaller projects starting out), in an effort to mutually benefit all participants.

I do not believe this will be an easy task, as most of the people in this industry are very independent, free-thinking folks, so it will be a bit like herding cats, but I think, as long as the beginning project(s) are simple enough, a decent group can come together.

Uniting the interested parties within this thread as a jump-off point is a logical start, and we can go from there.

I promise nothing, but you never know unless you try. :upsidedow

Sounds great, but let's not allow the Google Wave account status slow any of this down.

Once a postential list of group members has been sorted out, we can move on to the next step. Wave accounts should not be a mandatory prerequisite to get started, as it will delay any progress.
