Ideologi (pronounced “ideology”) is a new social media platform that turns group brainstorming into an entertaining and enlightening experience for participants and organizers seeking the best answers to any inquiry.
It’s been designed from the ground up to break through the noise of online communication, while creating new possibilities for collaborative work, co-creative discovery, and high-speed consensus generation.
Membership is free, but the rewards for participation are limitless.
As soon as you sign up, you’re provided a private digital wallet so that the rewards you earn for participation can be instantly redeemed at your convenience. Money, digital currencies, and even discounts for other products and services are all possible assets you can earn with your input.
As a member, you have the power to summon the collective intelligence of the entire community.
Any member can start a brainstorming session—which we call a hyperlogue—by posting its details on the platform, along with any funds to be awarded and the time limits for completing your tasks.
Once the details of your hyperlogue are published, any member can submit an entry to participate.
Since the collaborative methodology used for hyperlogues is designed to accommodate an unlimited number of entries, there are no limits as to how many members can join one.
Since the submission format offers rich text formatting, participants can submit a simple text all the way up to a blog-style entry.
Once your hyperlogue begins, participants begin working in concert with each other evaluating entries and providing feedback.
Rule #1: Only participants are allowed to evaluate entries from other participants. Even the initiator of the hyperlogue is denied access to the entries and their ongoing evaluation until the hyperlogue is completed.
Rule #2: The task of evaluating the entire stack of entries in a hyperlogue is divided up equally among participants to ease their individual workload and ensure that every entry is reviewed by multiple parties.
Rule #3: Each entry is matched up and scored against other entries multiple times to create a statistically-inferred rank. As a true marketplace of ideas, explicit comparison is the only measure for discovering value.
Once your hyperlogue is complete, all of their comparative scores, as well as any anonymous feedback collected during the evaluation phase, is posted on the platform for everyone to see.
In future versions of the platform, organizations will be able to create hyperlogues and their results that will only viewable by their community.
Finally, all of the funds reserved for your hyperlogue are distributed to participants based on the scores accumulated by their submissions.
If the initiator of the hyperlogue had set up a participant contribution requirement, then they’ll receive a payment as well.
What’s even more valuable than the financial rewards is the vetted content accumulated in the hyperlogues themselves. For initiators and participants alike, the value of these unique data sets could surpass all of the transactions fees and rewards paid and distributed to collect it!
What makes Ideologi such a positive-sum game (as opposed to the zero-to-negative-sum outcomes routinely expected with other speculative marketplaces) is that everyone can benefit from being part its activity, if only to gain better insight on the topic of discussion:
● Participants receive unbiased and virtually troll-proof feedback to their personal submissions and get to interact with other users who share the same subject-matter interest
● Initiators can exchange financial rewards to divine the wisdom of the crowd for economic and social uses.
● Every member of Ideologi’s community has access to the collective intelligence gathered in all previous hyperlogues and an open invitation to all public hyperlogues in the future.
● Online communities (including affinity groups, co-ops blockchain DAOs, etc.) could use hyperlogues to solicit clearer insight from their members, increase engagement, and build camaraderie, all at the same time.
● Enterprises looking for innovative ways to co-develop new products, services, and intellectual property with staff members, partners, and customers without the need to deploy new IT infrastructure or software licenses.
● Governments and institutions seeking better tools for soliciting feedback for public works, referendums and initiatives in order to open up the decision-making process to the general public.
After years of R&D, we are finally ready to invite our first class of ideologists to join our project for the multitude as members of our Private Beta Test Program…and we want to offer you a chance to be one of them.
If you’re intrigued by our vision and want to see how far this rabbit hole goes…
