Details

BlockShare.ChiCommons.coop builds Internet-style communications in neighborhoods by providing a communications server, Internet gateway and local wireless communications. The neighborhood server provides neighborhood-based applications to connect neighbors who join the cooperative neighborhood new and organizing tools, peer-to-peer social media, a neighborhood-based market for sharing expertise, labor, tools and rides. It also connects the coop to other neighborhoods using the same systems and paid lower cost access to the internet

"We Build the Internet Highway as We Travel"
What if we could solve the last mile problem, get lower cost internet, and provide neighborhoods their own private intranet at the same time? What if we owned, managed, operated, and used it as a cooperative? What do YOU think?
