Through that we can preserve the continuous seed of innovation, and contribute our effort towards the betterness and advancement of our greater society as a whole."

It was told by Alex Patsay that somewhere in Moscow, they had one of the biggest collections of old Mac (and NeXT) hardware and software in the world.
Imagine if people around the world could collect their Apple, Mac, NeXT and iMacs that they no longer use in once place, and arrange it by time, ... then we will perhaps be able to see the fascinating 'history', 'story' and 'evolution' of hardware, software, and computer design -- of one the most iconic icon, in the great innovation history of computing -- across time! :-)

In the past, most social causes lives-in because of the vision and idealism of its founder. These people put their effort, faith, believe, initiatives and even their own money to make the idea exist and persist.

As these causes matures, they seem to have tendency to keep on living (and expanding) because -- this time -- the global society funds it. Global society decides these open initiatives contributes something useful and powerful to society as a whole, hence they together act and continue fund it.

This is the latest fascinating trend in the development of social causes (and open causes) around the Globe! Something that is fascinating enough to see how it would evolve into its final format.

Never been in history that a campaign is this momentous, inspiring, energetic, emotional and strong. People self-organizingly stand up for what they believe is a hope for a great change, a movement, a chance to contribute a change for a great future. The hope spreads not just in America, but around the globe. Win or loose, Barack Obama probably already winning in sparking the light of hope that now resides in the heart of the people.  -arv

Could this be the look of office of the future?; where everybody just connecting from everywhere, and once they're connected, the exact same place where they got connected becomes their office right away? Take this view at Hongkong Airport for example. Could this be the "early look" of people's "office" of the future?
