Entrecard's concept is gaining popularity. The membership has passed 15,000. It's an interesting community. Remembering the Freakonomics and the importance of incentives, I believe the idea in this community is very appealing because it provides incentive. It is a system similar to current economic systems in a way that it contains a currency, providers of services, and consumers of services. And yet, members can easily be one or the other and are often both.
This also leads me to conclusion that the online culture is leading us into a world where we will have our online currency, and we will be both providers of services and consumers of services. Not that we are not right now but it will be so much more fluid and easier and faster to change the field of work, to establish contacts, earn credits and spend them - find a product, a gift, travel arrangement, accommodation, etc.
In that way, I'm looking forward to see how things develop for Entrecard community and am enjoying being part of it at the moment.
