My assessments posted earlier a month ago still stand when I spent a couple hours responding.  The main point I offered is how do WE move from knowledge / information / talking nto a dynamic network of conversations taking effective actions in global human commitments in the mission critical projects We/Wiserearth  stand for in solidarity.

 

Thanks for all the design efforts, building and attention going into this platform I am appreciative to be a part of the conversation and respond with my authentic assessments.  My previous assessments were not meant as critical judgements rather what I see missing in social networks that I have experienced and participating in thus far.  Wiserearth has an opportunity to create a "blue ocean" possible possibility in the world.  How do yoy create a postive virus and pac man game that eats up email, Facebook, Twitter etc?  Get radically creative and reversing the streaming velocity of an ever narrowing inferno of human madness is going to take more than abstract talking and invitations to join a group and pray together.  From an emerging point of (awakening suppressed denial) self organizing activity is about doing, what effective action do I take today to address an immediate breakdown or participate in an opportunity.  Innovation happens in effective actions not politicians and leadership's new policy, plan, and law.   What I see missing in global social networks is human commitment (requests/promises/offers) to do business interactively person-to-person in diverse projects requiring supporting new visionary leaders to build the teams, collaborate in resources and distributive networks in a living value chain, and create some new "value" games in living together. 

 

So far on Wiserearth, I make comments and very seldom hear a word back.  So I take the silence as my own personal breakdown of both being crazy, grandiose and verbose.  That may be true or not, I know I would rather be alone in my craziness than follow any leadership in this world.  And everyday I meet a stranger who integrates with my manner so I am an effective communicator on occasions. The other possibility is I may not be offering anything of value within the Wiserearth network?  And that's OK too!  No communication is a negative feeback loop where eventually one just moves their attention and will to expansion somewhere else.  

 

What I desire in a living social global network (Wiserearth?) is circularity in the "value" I invite, offer and invest in conversations.  Not to be right or lead anything, to be responded to as an legitimate other in the conversation, so there is trust, satisfaction, closure, learning and revelatory relationship building in community.  If you members in Wiserearth are experiencing this please tell me where I am blind, deaf and dumb, I want to join in.  If I appear arrogant or aggressive in this begging prayer to reflect in this manner, please forgive me it's not my attention to perturb you. If I offer any value in these conversations please confirm because at this point its like talking to myself and that's exactly what I am trying to breakthrough as a member of Wiserearth and inside this computer I spend so many worthless moments in front of and in the very near future look forward to putting aside once and for all.  

 

I appreciate the opportunity to be authentic and bless each of your intentions in bringing forth a wiserearth.

@Bowo: Not sure I agree that we should have this extra functionality of being able to redirect upon login to a number of different pages. Most social networking sites send you to a page with activity - a dashboard e.g. Facebook, Linked-In - the point is to get you into where the action is. None of them have the option of deciding where you land as a signed-in member. I suspect this would be a very little used piece of functionality if we were to have it on a settings page, and the downside is that it would complicate matters and require extra scarce programming time. Sending someone to a profile seems strange because presumably you know what is on your profile because you added the content. Especially with the new design (which eliminates comments on the profile*) there is even less reason to visit your own profile.I could see someone wanting to go directly to their Group - but that can be achieved with a bookmark or by quickly using the Groups menu.

 

 

* This makes sense because the comments section is being used by spammers and because these comments are not being read by members so it would be better to direct people towards sending messages.

@Bowo: As currently envisioned it would stay the same - landing on MyHome (the renamed Dashboard). Does that make sense? Best, Angus

@Bowo: What do you mean by landing page?

Just wanted to bring up an old suggestion that users should be given a choice of where to land on after login: (i) MyHome, (ii) Profile, (iii) Any other option? This would go to "Account settings" page I presume.

Slide 2 - none of the variations looks clean, functionality?

Slide 3 - like the possibility to comment and the person picture, is there an ability to share/send this content to our friends?

Slide 4 - like it

Slide 5 - looks fine

Slide 6 - looks fine, like the possibility to connect through Facebook and invite people by using contacts in the email account

Slide 7 - looks fine

Slide 8 - looks fine but maybe the search option withing the same page instead of a separate Find contact would be useful. The search could be by name (like on Facebook) or additionally by name of group or area of focues etc.

Slide 9 - looks fine

Slide 10- looks fine

Slide 11 - looks fine

Slide 12 - looks fine

Slide 13 - is there a function to mark all or a check box to delete chosen messages?

Slide 14 - looks fine

 

Thanks for all the hard work. Its a pleasure to contribute here.
