Thank you for sharing your insights and intelligent views on the evolution or devolvement of "FOLKSONOMY". Continuously while reading your aritcle I found myself shouting, whispering, speaking soothingly, out loud to my screen this word as you seemed to be grasping for something just beyond your fingertips. That kind of anxiety will drive the best of us nuts.
Its sad though you know. To see the best of intentions being reaped for the largest financial returns possible has been distressing. It just happens and you can not get out from under the cycle. Having been in the front seats for a good many years now, the excuses; "people won't work for free, nor, if you help people do what they love they will do that thing for nothing in return" is true. Once you open that door of necessity, opportunity enters along with it. Hand in hand with opportunity is the wolf in sheep's clothing. That is when money starts to matter and the mission or vision become second only to that end. Forgive me for rambling. I just wanted to remind you of the word, "FOLKSONOMY" which as I am sure you know but perhaps forget, is simply the Economy of People Exchaning Humanity to Arrive at a Predetermined Goal. Thanks for your time and God bless. Regards, Benjamin Schwartz, Creative Compass On the Bench, onthebench@me.com
