Ask HN: Speech as MicroTransaction?

1 pointsby CulturalNgineerover 15 years ago
I'm hoping for feedback on my application. http://www.Chagora.com<p>(gateway and accounts established but currently site is set so can sign up for FREE with "play money" for demonstration purposes... Try it!)<p>Premise is simple: Small Money, Large Numbers &#38; Immediate Feedback will change the political dynamic by re-engaging citizens in easy and (especially) frequent participation.<p>Put on your math hat and consider potentials in networked citizen lobbying. Model is transaction neutral and account is attractive for ALL User's charitable and political contribution... (also e.g. blog subscriptions which are a function of speech).<p>I believe can become natural hub but I'm a political theory guy... not an Internet entrepreneur so am looking for some advice... (and partners if interested)<p>Chagora blog at http:CulturalEngineer.blogspot.com<p>P.S. Naturally I'm biased but for all kinds of reasons I think this is a better model than Google's for journalism ( http://www.niemanlab.org/2009/09/google-developing-a-micropayment-platform-and-pitching-newspapers-open-need-not-mean-free/ ).
