Crowdsourcing the Future: Introducing Global Real-Time Consumer Confidence Tracking - 0 views

  • What were current consumer confidence readings? It would take weeks or months to find out, and even then only selected countries would be reported on. I kept asking myself, what is the point of having a forward indicator when it takes so long to get the data? Remember that consumer confidence is not drawn from government data that needs to be tallied in highly secure data rooms. It is just an aggregation of our views.

National crowdsourcing project to better predict world events - 2 views

  •  
    "A new model for crowdsourcing predictions called Aggregative Contingent Estimation System (ACES) is transforming the way future events are forecast - combining the collective knowledge of many individual opinions in a unique way that improves accuracy beyond what any one person or small group of experts could provide."

Open Future - Trends, Web 2.0, Internet, Consumer Activism - Open innovation and crowds... - 0 views

  •  
    Open FutureInterested in Open Innovation & Crowdsourcing? Follow Open Innovators on twitter or subscribe to the Open Innovators RSS feed! In addition to tracking specific trends about open innovation and crowdsourcing, it is important to build a broader view on those trends' underlying drivers and facilitators, and how they could evolve in the years to come. Trends, forecasts and scenarios about the power of the Internet, Web 2.0, the rise of virtual worlds, consumers becoming prosumers… The Open Future report is somewhat atypical, as it is build around interesting videos and quotes. It explains why and how one should constantly keep track of (disruptive) trends, build different scenarios, and have corresponding strategies prepared.

Artifacts from the present - 2 views

  •  
    This is a very interesting article by futurist Stuart Candy. He discusses "artifacts of the future" - physical artifacts that have a pre-figurative element, they invoke contemplation of future possibilities. For the purpose of the project, they may be one strategy by which to ramp up the "tactility" or experiential basis of crowdsourced foresight. Ask (or allow) that each contribution have a picture and snap shot or fragment from the future.

Forecasting World Events - 1 views

  •  
    This is a USA based project that seeks to crowd source predictions about the future. It is being run by the Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA). IARPA "invests in high-risk/high-payoff research programs that have the potential to provide our nation with an overwhelming intelligence advantage over future adversaries." Jose's little analysis - because it is limited to a US audience it will probably have good technological inputs, but its cultural and political input will be largely worthless. I don't see any cultural studies and political scientist types making a contribution (could be very wrong of course) and commentary will most likely come from a combination of mis-informed moderates and Fox news fruitcakes. For ICT and the CRC project it is an example of crowdsourcing for competitive intelligence.

How Facebook could change the world economy - Global Public Square - CNN.com Blogs - 0 views

  •  
    "To address this and similar challenges, we're developing Open Foresight - a social response to accelerating change. It's a new process that crowdsources the future of given topics, as demonstrated by the Future of Facebook pilot project. It's different because it structures data around established futures categories and methods, then synthesizes that information into easily digestible video format."
