[p2p-research] Where the P2P jobs are...

[Michel Bauwens]

barcelona has a  number of thriving cultural centers, all aligned around
free culture, and can mobilize a few thousand youngsters for the OSCARS ..

talinn, home of the skype team, has a vibrant city sharing culture, which I
witnessed during my trip there

most open source city? perhaps vancouver? see the P2P Cities list on the
wiki, as well as the same-name tag in delicious; in the U.S. Washington DC
was famous for its open gov mashups ..

open currency centers? Ithaca? though I heard it was declining ..
