Meme Hubs

2009-03-02T05:14:05Z

Elmom:

Meme hubs are individuals and groups that have a wide audience on the internet. Because they have a large following, they are capable of creating cultural memes.

from Edward Miller:

My conception of "meme hubs" includes people as well as groups. Really any prolific person who has a wide enough audience could be considered a meme hub. There are plenty of prolific people whose interests orbit ours.

I know Kevin Carson and Michel Bauwens already are aware of you, and by now we have probably contacted James Hughes and others.

Here is a short list of others:

Jeremy Rifkin

Kevin Kelly

Douglas Rushkoff

Corey Doctorow

Chris Anderson

RU Sirius

Marshall Brain

Charlie Stross

Bruce Sterling

Peter Barnes

Antonio Negri

and if you are especially lucky, Noam Chomsky. I have taken the liberty to contact him. As for the rest of these guys, I could try to help contact them. I don't know how successful I will be, but if even one of them helps out it would be great.

Meme hub orgs:

As far as meme hubs, I recommend contacting the following publications, and link them to your Distillations videos.

http://www.seedmagazine.com/

http://edge.org/

http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/

http://www.technologyreview.com/

If you get these place to publicize your work, the liklihood of you showing up in the New Scientist or Discover is greatly amplified. Also, if you build up a rapport with people like Jamais Cascio, then perhaps they might be able to talk to people at, say, Wired.

I know that Ronald Bailey, an editor of Reason Magazine, is very connected to the transhumanist community, and especially friendly with James Hughes.

Also, I recommend posting on these forums:

Joseph knows a variety of other open source tech workshops and collectives which have formed around the country, and he has compiled a Registry of such projects at www.freedomofscience.org , a website which I designed for his organization. I recommend contacting as many of them as possible, to see if any of them are interested in working with Factor e. There are also just a lot of little hobbyist groups that you should contact, such as the RepRap user groups.

There is even a Kansas City group: http://forums.reprap.org/list.php?104

There are also some good mailing lists:

http://groups.google.com/group/postscarcity

http://p2pfoundation.ning.com/forum/topics/abundance-the-journal-of-post

Those are related to Joseph's Journal called Abundance about post-scarcity economics. I recommend you submit something to the journal. I will be submitting something.

There are other mailing lists too, such as http://groups.google.com/group/openmanufacturing

You may already be aware of some of these. You might also want to ask http://adciv.org/ to publicize some of your achievements, as P2P foundation has.

Sorry for the deluge of links, but I hope it helps.
