Idea generation #21: Social funding through new exchanges

One of the most innovative things I read this week. The author did not state so explicitly but implicit in her post is the idea of a new form of exchange, an idea that was prevalent during the dotcom days. Her suggestion of converting cash from auctions into donations is similar to what was posted here last week. The powerful thing here is that I am beginning to see how new models, in the form of markets, networks and communities (see bubblegeneration) can help to solve some of the real economic issues we are facing such as global hunger.
