    There’s no reason we couldn’t have an Amazon-like app that buys from the stores around us.

    Or services like door dash/Uber/etc that are managed inside the community with tools shared with other communities.

    It is an idea that would pair well with locally managed fiber (municipal or local business), and community clouds.

    I’m starting with makerspaces, but I could see it operating without them too.

      We need makerspaces globally.

      Âll locally, obviously.

      To do: search or create makerspaces in the Western US.

        Thank you!

        I’m currently working on preparing for a talk I’m given on the topic for the Massachusetts Pirate party on Saturday.
