Fwd: [P2P-F] Fwd: Google Mine: Service To "Help" You Share Your Gadgets, Clothes And Other Stuff With Friends

The service, which is apparently closely integrated with Google+, is said to be in private beta testing within Google right now. According to Chitu, the service also allows you to catalog your belongings, review them (which could be cool for purchases) and send requests to borrow stuff from friends. There also seems to be something akin to a wish list and a feature that will allow you to share a list of items you don’t want to share but just want to give away. All of this sharing, of course, happens on Google+. [image: google_mine]<http://tctechcrunch2011.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/google_mine.png> The service, the report says, is available on the web and through an Android app. The app also supposedly includes a 3D viewer that’ll show you your objects, though it’s not clear how you would get these models into the app. Google is obviously not the only company interested in this kind of real-world tracking. Mine <http://getmine.com/>, a startup that launched last December<http://techcrunch.com/2012/12/10/blippy-redux-mine-launches-a-service-for-s…> and that probably doesn’t have the exact same name by coincidence, is also working on giving its users the ability to track the things they own, but with a focus on what they’ve bought online. This service, though, seems to be more focused on e-commerce than on the sharing economy. -- P2P Foundation: http://p2pfoundation.net - http://blog.p2pfoundation.net <http://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation>Updates: http://twitter.com/mbauwens; http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens #82 on the (En)Rich list: http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/ _______________________________________________ P2P Foundation - Mailing list http://www.p2pfoundation.net https://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation

Making More Accessible...

by Eddie Che

Hello! Two ideas came up during a sit outside with all my stuff. Let's keep accessibility as a priority! How do you guys feel about: a) Can we intentionally unlock the front door of the common room where the cosmic stairs are? eg, first one in each day, unlocks it? I noticed that the Fresh tomatoes group likes to leave the bottom Broadway-side door open, which seems to be cool with George. b) Who was it that was super-nearby? Perhaps, could this person put on paper+tape on the side door: "If locked, can call : _______" & he can use the door IP? (at reasonable hours) rawk on. and, my generator's almost complete now! of good note also, the main desktop is working again and the power cord for the extra laptop came back for those who don't have their own laptops :) sudo is an excellent example, let's just figure out these other access things! rap back, che

foxconn stepping it up with the mozilla OS

by Romy Ilano

this is pretty neat... http://venturebeat.com/2013/06/24/foxconn-3000-software-workers/ Foxconn wants to step up its Firefox OS development with thousands of new engineers [image: Foxconn wants to step up its Firefox OS development with thousands of new engineers] Image by Imaginechina/Corbis June 24, 2013 7:34 AM Ricardo Bilton <http://venturebeat.com/author/rbilton/> Add a Comment<http://venturebeat.com/2013/06/24/foxconn-3000-software-workers/#disqus_thr…> inShare <http://venturebeat.com/2013/06/24/foxconn-3000-software-workers/> [image: MobileBeat 2013] <http://mobilebeat2013.com> *July 9-10, 2013* San Francisco, CA Tickets On Sale Now<http://mobilebeat2013-MB2013boilerplateTOP.eventbrite.com/> When Foxconn announced its support for Firefox OS<http://venturebeat.com/2013/06/03/foxconn-joins-firefox-os/>, it wasn’t kidding around. The manufacturing giant said this weekend that hopes to recruit 3,000 software engineers<http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/biz/archives/2013/06/21/2003565268> to help it develop for Mozilla’s mobile operating system in its software center in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. To put that number in context, the Kaohsiung center currently houses 300 workers, making the addition of 3,000 new employees a pretty massive investment. (The company had initially expected to hire from 500 and 1,000 workers.) As Foxconn said in a statement: “There will be no budget limit for fostering software talent.” The move is an important one for Foxconn, which is moving away from simply making devices for big foreign companies like Apple. instead, the company is pursuing what it calls a “‘eight screens, one network, and one cloud’ strategy,” which essentially means that wants to have a greater role in both the hardware and software design of the devices made in its factories. To put it simply: The Foxconn of the future will be a very different beast from the one we’re used to.

This Friday 6-7pm DIY Bio - Counter Culture Labs General meeting at Sudo Room

by Ryan Bethencourt

Hi All Sudo and CCL Hackers/Biohackers, Just a quick announcement that Counter Culture labs will be having our general meeting this *Friday (last friday of the month as per usual) at Sudo Room in Oakland from 6-7pm (just booked in the Calendar). * All biotech enthusiasts are welcome to join and discuss the exciting new developments with CCL (we're getting ready to move forward on a new biotech community lab space, with a financial projection/total member discussion this friday), some of the recent discussions (and advice) we've had from Genspace+Hacker Dojo and most importantly, a discussion on some of the VERY cool projects that our members are working on or will be starting up once our new space opens! *Some cool stats on Counter Culture labs:* - Since forming with our first official meeting at Sudo room approximately 6 months ago, Counter culture labs membership has *grown to 76 members* - Counter Culture labs now has weekly working meetings, which Patrik had the foresight to lead the development of and Ahnon has successfully hosted at her home for many weeks to build CCL's infrastructure - VERY strong social media presence - Ahnon and Mary have led CCL's social media strategy with incredible zest and Patrik launched our meet up group which has grown extremely rapidly! - Great website coming soon - Naomi volunteered to lead the development of our website and any offers of help are welcome! - CCL has attracted an incredible amount of Scientists, MD's, Business People, Tech and Biotech enthusiasts and could possibly be the largest pool of scientists and MD's of any biohacker space that we're aware of thus far. This bodes very well for the future of the innovative projects and classes that will be developed at CCL and hopefully we'll all be able to take part as a positive force for change in our local communities and on a larger scale through biotech and science innovation! *Staying in touch with Counter culture labs: * https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/east-bay-diybio https://twitter.com/CountrCultrLabs https://www.facebook.com/CounterCultureLabs “The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance." - Alan Watts Bye from Miami for now!
