Make Borgs not Blogs

Just found this dope new site called Borgger,  a place to develop ideas and connect hands with minds to make them happen.

Unlike blogging, which is about opinions and editorials, borgging is about action, making new businesses, connecting on ideas, remixing art and music, etc. Pretty cool concept, perfect for fostering new ideas in a down economy.

It’s basically an open-source TED conference.

You can use Borgger to:

1: Finish a partially fleshed out idea with the help of others.

2: Share a great idea that you can’t make on your own but would love to see created.

3: Have a great idea? Prove it, apply a Creative Commons license, and see if it merits paying for a trademark.

4: Want to start a business? Scan Borgger for great ideas and either network with the author to co-develop or inexpensively buy the idea outright.

5: Post a piece of art / music / writing and see where other creatives can take it.

6: Quickly scan the homepage to see the best ideas as voted on by the Borgger community.

The site is just coming out of beta, but already has some ace content. Check out some of the top threads: De-centralized manufacturing, a plan to save newspapers, and so much more…awesome.

So check it out and start borgging today.
