A film project about the power of mass collaboration, the government and the Internet. In his student flat in Colchester, Jack Howe’s staring at your computer screen. It is picking the team Ebbsfleet United FA Trophy semi-final against Aldershot.
Worldwide 35,000 fans others are doing the same, because together, they own and manage the football club. If the distribution networks of people can manage complex organizations, such as football clubs, what else can they do?
Now we take a look at how such involvement could transform the way that countries are governed. It tells the story of online networks, whose radical self-organizing structures threaten to change the structure of government forever.
Now we follow the fate of Ebbsfleet United, a football club owned and run by fans, Zopa, a bank where everyone is the director, and Couch Surfing, a vast online network whose members share their homes with strangers.
The founding principles of these projects – transparency, self-selection, open participation – are getting closer and closer to the mainstream of our social and political life. Now we describe this transition and faces politicians Ed Miliband and George Osborne with the possibilities of participatory governance as described by Don Tapscott and Clay Shirky, among others.

Yawn. This is made for or was made by someone who has been living under a rock for about ten years and is unaware of the expanse of the internet. The documentary has no central message or theme. It tries to add a dramatic twist to very plain technological ideas and common knowledge; in doing this it also often wanders off topic and fails to tie itself together in any meaningful way.
@mtahmcs yep i agree most of the music pro guys hiding the best software from the public. btw! you can make some damn insane beats with this software. Its finally been released to the public. i found it here >> bit.ly/Oms0Ia?=ecqnvy

A global Equality-based governmental system and stopping the ego/self-interest of every individual is a permanent and complete solution to most personal- and other problems on earth. Find websites of ‘Equal Money System’, ‘Desteni’ and ‘Desteni I Process’ with a search engine and study them thoroughly to get a better picture of what I’m saying.
We the people were ment to govern ourselves with a very basic set of rules the constitution and bill of rights the role of govt. Is to protect those rights and freedom from all threats foreign and domestic instead of micromanage our lives tell us what we can and can’t do eat ingest every part of our life and with our $ there using it against us to make a nwo that’ll fail and kill 95% earth population to achieve since they want2 supress technology we need new govt an nwo that’s the original 1776
It still surprises me, just how some people are not aware about Zuntramax Secrets (search on google), even though a lot of people get great result because of this dating course. Thanks to my friend who told me about Zuntramax Secrets, I’ve completely get rid of my shyness, and finally get laid with my crush
I agreed. But this video shows us also that some people use their mobile phone just like a toy. And because of that, they shut themselves off from the rest of the world and became little by little agoraphobic and lazy. They also think that people on phone are more credible than people on the street. This year, 57% of people on earth talk to people more online than they do in real life. And It makes lazy geeks happy! Look at his face expression at 11:43 … he’s so proud of his useless service XD
But the whole idea is that you would educate yourself on the issues and try to gather a deeper understanding because it directly effects you. Also the video doesn’t call for the entire rejection of standard Representative government, it just says that we should have more say in thing that are more personal to us as citizens. So people wouldn’t be allowed to vote on issues of immigration or tax rates, but they would be allowed to have more say on where the money should go.
I think that is only one of the possible functions of the service. I believe the service could also be used to help find things and also get advice about where the person is going, things to do, things to see, and maybe things to avoid. Like going to a restaurant they could get first person reviews from locals and get truthful opinions. I think your looking at the service in a closed minded way and not really looking at the full potential of such a program. But that is just my opinion.
there are too many blind and uneducated people that would vote for things that they had no clue what they were talking about. That why i believe the system would never work It takes no effort to collaborate or vote online which in my opinion is not a good thing

@GammahooX The Revolution of Human Evolution is an incredibly dynamic thing. Powerful, beautiful, awe-inspiring.Germany’s government while obviously in your example is oppressing the people, is also one of the few governments which is aggressively standing up against pressure to become part of some One-World Super Government. There are many examples of that.Ultimately, the pressure of enlightened peoples will bring us all to the same goal, including the peoples of Germany.
@rotaryphoton137 a defeatist mentality is the easiest way to absolve yourself of any responsibility to yourself or your community. if the ones with the money are the 1%, and we are the other 99%, who do you think is really in charge here? money is only a symbol of value – not value itself. discover what you really value and you’ll find its not artificiality. peace.
58 minutes is to long to spend on this subject, a better slice and dice is suggested. I give the film credit for exploring the use of this new social media. The option to skip commercials is good. I am looking at three of the web sites mentioned…
