MittSkifte drivs av folkrörelsen Skiftet som tiotusentals svenskar engagerar sig i varje månad. Det finns andra sidor som låter dig starta namninsamlingar. Men ingen av dem erbjuder personlig hjälp, eller håller rent sidan från rasism, sexism och homofobi. MittSkiftes främsta styrka är antalet kampanjer människor som du vunnit.
Det är mer än bara en namninsamling - det är en kampanj.

Albert-László Barabási explained the processes underpinning such a neofeudalism in his analysis of the structure of complex networks, that is, networks characterized by free choice, growth, and preferential attachment. These are networks where people voluntarily make links or choices. The number of links per site grow over time, and people like things because others like them (the Netflix recommendation system, for instance, relies on this assumption).
Paul Mason i Guardian, bygger på Grundrisse. Hans bok: Postcapitalism is published by Allen Lane on 30 July.
"Postcapitalism is possible because of three major changes information technology has brought about in the past 25 years. First, it has reduced the need for work, blurred the edges between work and free time and loosened the relationship between work and wages. The coming wave of automation, currently stalled because our social infrastructure cannot bear the consequences, will hugely diminish the amount of work needed – not just to subsist but to provide a decent life for all."
"By creating millions of networked people, financially exploited but with the whole of human intelligence one thumb-swipe away, info-capitalism has created a new agent of change in history: the educated and connected human being."

"We investigate the structure of scientific collaboration networks. We consider two scientists to be connected if they have authored a paper together, and construct explicit networks of such connections using data drawn from a number of databases... We show that these collaboration networks form "small worlds" in which randomly chosen pairs of scientists are typically separated by only a short path of intermediate acquaintances. We further give results for mean and distribution of numbers of collaborators of authors, demonstrate the presence of clustering in the networks, and highlight a number of apparent differences in the patterns of collaboration between the fields studied."
Rhe rich get richer, the poor get poorer. The hot get hotter, the cold...disappear from sight! The Matthew Effect is a pretty well known social theory that may help ease your pain as you find yourself isolated from love, peace, and happiness by these phe
"social networking services that really work are the ones that are built around objects. (...) Flickr, for example, has turned photos into objects of sociality. On del.icio.us the objects are the URLs. EVDB, Upcoming.org, and evnt focus on events as objec
