[...] A skills inventory is a great way to make yourself publicly available to others as an expert resource in the things you’re good at and interested in. It’s an open format for individuals and small communities to create a skills bank to facilitate trade inside or alongside the monetary system. For me, the skills inventory has become a reference point to track my progress towards personal and professional goals. [...]

I quit blogging. I spend about 2 hours a week on the internet now. I think the success of good blogs has to do with the fact that a lot of people work all day with access to a computer and internet. Cubicle type deal.

But anyway, futuristically, maybe the internet will transform into something like some amazing walking hologram show, where you continually create your own reality.

Or maybe it will be like t.v.

Practically everyone spends time watching it and practically everyone feels a little guilty about and thinks its dumb.

But in terms of spiritual forces coming to you to launch there technological projects. I don’t doubt it. But I am suspicious of them. I am no skeptic of the spirit world. I just question spirits motives.

A suspicious of them wanting to live vicariously through the living. Genius in the original etymology comes from a genie. A demon. Maybe its good, maybe its bad.

But anyway, there is a way to connect psychically to information without the internet.

As I was reading this, my boss said outloud to one of my coworkers “Bil, could you please join us in the collective unconscious”. He meant a group instant messaging chat session.

Maybe the dream means you’re going to get a job and you’ll work at 1509 Something Street. The mundane things we do in everyday life are just as fantastic and unbelieveable as anything in science fiction. It’s our perception of our daily lives as mundane that blocks us from that knowledge.

I still think your dream about the war in Baltimore might have been your accurate perception of the wars that go on in people’s daily lives. That may have linked you to knowledge of a future “real” war but the small wars aren’t less important, just less obviously interesting.

Are computers even necessary, in order to reach this “Holy Grail of Computing” state that you’re talking about? Personally, I don’t really think they are, but I can read your stance as going either way here. Just curious which direction you’re leaning toward, if either.
