Worldaround electricity, etc.
Jon Udell's radio blog from today suggests Web 3.0 activities like negotiating your own electicity sources and your own air taxi to wherever you're flying. He'd written about these things way back in 2004 and 2002.
Bucky Fuller proposed a solution in his 1980 book Critical Path. Back then we weren't all going to have to run personal Enrons. The idea was more that we already had the technology, 25 years ago and earlier, to build a worldaround electric grid with infinitely more upside than being free, "To expose my electricity consumption to price-sensitive management both by me and by a management service."
