Technologies of Cooperation [PDF]

If MemeStreams is a Social Accounting tool, who will become the Arthur Andersen of culture jamming?

Emerging digital technologies present new opportunities for developing complex cooperative strategies that change the way people work together to solve problems and generate wealth. Central to this class of cooperation-amplifying technologies are eight key clusters, each with distinctive contributions to cooperative strategy:

    Self-organizing mesh networks
    Community computing grids
    Peer production networks
    Social mobile computing
    Group-forming networks
    Social software
    Social accounting tools
    Knowledge collectives

Each of these technology clusters can be viewed not only as a template for design of cooperative systems, but also as tools people can use to tune organizations, projects, processes, and markets for increased cooperation. Specifically, each can be used in distinctive ways to alter the key dimensions of cooperative systems -- structure, rules, resources, thresholds, feedback, memory, and identity.
