Say the community want to organize a shared event for the common interest. For instance, I talked about the need for "Clear Talk" in a different thread. I would like to organize an event bsed on that topic but I will not be able to fund this myself, but there are other members in the community who may have the resources to sponser such an event. Is there way t enable such "sharing" to build better communities and build something more than the sum of its components?
Making the need for "sponsorship" and "hosting" more general, it would be nice to:
1. Provide a way for hosting Ad supported sessions (at the very least NPR like, "this session is made possible by IterativePath.com")
2. Provide a way for non-profits and for-profits alike to make use of these sonsorshps through an online marketplace. If possible add to this, "gift cards" that some customers could use as giveaways for surveys etc.
3. Provide a way for WebEx's unused cycles to be donated to a pool that is available for "open" meetings. By "open" i mean like "open source". |
