I like the idea/name of a 'beacon' that would automatically create a conducive environment if a certain number of people group around a posting. By the way, just for fun, I googled 'page 207 of Moby Dick.' Here it is: http://www.worldwideschool.org/library/books/lit/adventure/MobyDick/chap45.html 16 Aug 2005 @ 16:11 by ming : Moby Dick Hah, that is great! ...[reading]...hm, don't know if any mysterious synchronicity emerged from that, but it is still fun. "In our way thither, he says, about four o'clock in the morning, when we were about one hundred and fifty leagues from the Main of America, our ship felt a terrible shock, which put our men in such consternation that they could hardly tell where they were or what to think; but every one began to prepare for death. And, indeed, the shock was so sudden and violent, that we took it for granted the ship had struck against a rock; but when the amazement was a little over, we cast the lead, and sounded, but found no ground. The suddenness of the shock made the guns leap in their carriages, and several of the men were shaken out of their hammocks. Captain Davis, who lay with his head on a gun, was thrown out of his cabin! Lionel then goes on to impute the shock to an earthquake, and seems to substantiate the imputation by stating that a great earthquake, somewhere about that time, did actually do great mischief along the spanish land. but i should not much wonder if, in the darkness of that early hour of the morning, the shock was after all caused by an unseen whale vertically bumping the hull from beneath." But, now, the technicalities of how something can be a meeting place gets me thinking. Well, a webpage can be a place people can hang out. There have been several attempts of making programs that will overlay a chat or comment space on any arbitrary webpage, whether its owner agrees or not. None of them really caught on as any lasting thing, as far as I know. And, also, there would probably be multiple places you'd find the same thing, like page 207 of Moby Dick. So, another approach could be that one references it more abstractly. Like a tag. To make it simple, various people might go around attaching the tag "Moby Dick" to items. Including webpages. And maybe there could be a meeting/chat space attached to the tag. So that even if you come from a number of different starting points, you might still "hang out" at the "Moby Dick" tag. Also, to make good meeting places, one might need to have a way of knowing what kind of activity is happening in different places. Like, where are people swarming to, for whatever reason. I shouldn't have to wait on page 207, wondering why nobody else comes by, if there's a very stimulating dicussion going on on page 202. I'd need to be able to sense it somehow. 10 May 2007 @ 21:58 by ming : Treasure hunters I'm glad that it is working for you guys. It certainly seems to be a very popular and busy place. 11 May 2007 @ 21:21 by GenerSumilang @86.62.250.3 : MING Certainly its popular and busy place and im really terrified of whats going on in there. im not actually in the philippines but i can feel that my presence is just there! treasure sites which actually not known to many could be shared in ming thought they had openess and feel free to ask help. organizations for treasure hunters were already formed which never in my imagination that that will actually happen. so their resources and movement will be more freely and wider for them to be succesful to their common dreams, someday that someone will get successful and they can remember the big help for them from ming forum, i know very much the heart of most filipinos, they wont forget you and they will do everything to find you to get a share......at least. 23 Jan 2008 @ 06:59 by George @121.54.107.38 : In need of a financer we have a potential hidden tunnel measuring about 5 feet by 150meters, more or less between 50-60 feet below the ground.

I have been treasure hunting for 20 years and the common marker for Philippines treasure sites are the words "UMAAPOY NA BURAT" if you find this its surely a treasure in it but very little amount. The very rare site with big finds has the words "Pambansang Tanga". This is only applicable in the Philippines ok 20 May 2008 @ 19:10 by lyn @154.20.25.51 : Manny Calimba Hi Manny, Those are tagalog words (maybe applicable in Luzon), what about those treasure sites in Mindanao and Visayas? 9 Aug 2008 @ 05:37 by LadyJ @125.60.240.204 : Samal Island Meron kaming lupa na ipinagbibili sa Samal Island ng Davao City.

The prcudot container is handmade stoneware with the dents of my palm. The fruits are gathered from the wilds, except for the mango ,by cultural minorities in the Philippines. These mountain dwellers survive by charcoal making. There is one cluster we are helping with 10 communities , each community comprises 71 families who does nothing but chop 6n to 8 year old trees for firewood and charcoal. Since we started buying wild berries from them did they realize the destruction they are doing. This cluster chops 8,520 trees per year. Now they are our forest guardian , realizing the value of protecting the environment.Thanks and email me.Elbert Pigtain Other entries in Internet 10 Jul 2010 @ 13:01: Strong Elastic Links 13 Oct 2008 @ 14:42: Call for Papers: (Online) Conference On Systemic Flaws and Solutions 2009 25 Oct 2007 @ 21:47: Static or dynamic web metaphors 28 Mar 2007 @ 05:36: The Tyee - Vancouver's Online Newspaper 11 Jul 2006 @ 15:12: Response to Josep L.I.
