GLOBAL � There�s always a wealth of new devices and services being launched and refined and that keeps things pretty exciting for us. But there are also times when it�s necessary to step back, take a breather and have a think about where it�s all going. For times like those, as well as this blog, it�s well-worth taking a peek at what�s going on with the IdeasProject.
IdeasProject � hosted at www.ideasproject.com � is a Nokia project to bring together the big thinkers in communications, business and technology and allow them (and you) to express, discuss and explore their ideas for the future. If you�re looking for the big picture on a particular topic, or have come up with a genius idea that might change the world, then it�s a really good place to start.
Contributors include some real heavyweights � people like Chris Anderson, the editor of Wired magazine, Charlene Li of the Altimeter group and Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia. Normally, they�ll present some of their ideas through a video. Sometimes a short article. There�s also plenty of community areas to submit, vote for and discuss big ideas generally.
Here�s designer and entrepreneur Rupa Chaturvedi, for example, talking about the ways mobility can help remote communities:
Our favourite part, though, is the Question and Answer section. Each week, a visiting expert will ask a question of the community, which will then discuss it over the course of the week, with the best answers showcased in a blog post at the beginning of the next week.
This week�s question comes from journalist Mike Elgan, who asks, �If all knowledge is available instantly to everyone from everywhere, how does that change what we learn � and what we don�t have to learn?�
