Hello, Federico, as I promised, I have just sent you my 5 bucks for your project! I will spread the word, keep up the good work!
I can't wait for this. Get writing sir, I can't wait to see the final product.
Every job that needs to be done fits into at least one of two categories.
Category 1: The job can be done by machines/robots.
Category 2: People enjoy doing the job and are willing to do it for no pay.
I challenge people to find a job that doesn't fit into at least one of these categories. No one has showed me one yet.
Ciao Federico,
ti seguo da un pò in rete,sei un modello da seguire per tutti noi. Scoprire il MZ è stato importantissimo per me...Attualmente sono entrato in contatto con Fausto e cercherò di aiutarlo a Ferrara.So che sei appassionato di musica, anche se non so quale mi sento di condividere con te l'immensità espressa da questa canzone...http://www.youtube.com/watch…
Ci vediamo al simposio ;)
Thank you Andrew for the links. I'm actually familiar with all of them, but keep them coming! You never know what new things might come out :)
Hi, I would love to read a book of your research.
As a suggestion I would HIGHLY recommend listening to some of the perspectives from TZM about a RBE.
I think you will share many of there views as it stresses how technology is actually a good thing when it takes away what are effectively slave or so called shovel ready jobs.

@Fernando
that's great, I'd love to get the message out to our Portuguese and Brazilian friends! :D
namaste!
That is a real relevant topic wich i think people is conditioned to ignore. I hope your words can give us tools to open their eyes. I'll share it with everyone i know.
When the time comes, it will be a pleasure to translate it to Portuguese-br. I do even suggest to give this translation job to the Linguistic Team Internacional.
With love,
namaste =D
