    Greetings,

 (Disclosure: I'm launching a venture called REX<http://therexpedition.com/>,
which is based on the idea of a Relationship Economy.)

The Millennium rang in two connection events of global scope: sudden global
connectivity (through mobiles and the Intertubes) and a growing global
consciousness. We're only beginning to
grok<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grok>the consequences.

All these new links are shifting relationships of many kinds: among
people<http://news.cnet.com/8301-13772_3-20001226-52.html?tag=nl.e703>,
between people<http://www.amazon.com/Cognitive-Surplus-Creativity-Generosity-Connected/dp/1594202532>and
companies, between companies
and the Earth<http://www.amazon.com/Green-Gold-Companies-Environmental-Competitive/dp/0300119976/>,
between citizens <http://www.ted.com/talks/david_cameron.html> and their
governments<http://techpresident.com/blog-entry/wikileaks-releases-giant-trove-secret-us-documents-afghan-war>...
the list is long, the road is bumpy and the changes required are many.

The Relationship Economy thesis <http://therexpedition.com/?p=27> charts a
path into this new world order, and highlights the skills and traits needed
to thrive along the way.

Together, let's discuss:

   - How are relationships changing? Due to what forces?
   - What are the new sources of value? What happens to commerce?
   - Where are these forces taking us? What might 2020 look like?

 As always, an IRC
Chat<http://www.seedwiki.com/wiki/yi-tan/irc_chat?wikiPageId=163280>will
be available during the call,
