14:30 (priority system) 14:30 (coupled to an economical system) 14:31 (basically you decide what's the return of investment of a task compared to few others) 14:31 (you repeat the process for every tasks, which also gives you "credits") 14:31 (then it orders tasks by overall ROI so you can pick which task to do first to get the maximum credits and be more efficient) 14:34 wait wait 14:35 you prioritize your tasks based on what youthink is better for you? 14:35 is that? 14:35 yes 14:36 still, I am sorry, how you get the credits? 14:36 by actually DOING the task ;) 14:36 oh 14:36 could you give me an example? 14:37 http://fabien.benetou.fr/Trips/NY-Montreal09#Done 14:37 Ill add more details later on 14:37 anywya for the priority system 14:38 image that you have to water plant and to buy nutrient 14:38 for your house because you think plants are healty to live with 14:39 so first you compare the 2 tasks and tell which has the biggest impact 14:39 yes 14:39 uhmm 14:39 and you say 70 30 for example 14:39 which is the one that makes my plant survive better 14:40 ohh 14:40 yes! 14:40 maybe, that's for you to decide 14:40 :) nice example 14:40 so now already you did something so you get little credits 14:40 because evaluating that is not always easy 14:40 so it has to be reawrding 14:41 ok, now you do the same higher up, comparing your plant in your house vs let's say redacting your PhD 14:41 and you asy 10 90 14:41 hmm 14:41 yes 14:41 yes 14:41 and now, based on that 14:42 and assuming that you did the same in your PhD project 14:42 the system computes what's the total impact of each task 14:42 and order them accordingly 14:42 and display next to each the credits you will gain 14:42 by acocmplishing each task 14:42 yes, I understand 14:42 then when you do finish one 14:43 ohh right! 14:43 it will automatically re-compute the credit for the tasks still available 14:43 the key ideas are : 14:43 yes 14:44 * not comparing every single task to each otherm that's just too demanding 14:44 * having updates done automatically without having to re-order everything when 1 task is done 14:45 * being couplde to a economical system (giving credits) in order to promote optimization and give incentive 14:46 * being able to reward any, really any, kind of tasks includig tasks related to improving the system (like adding impact scores) 14:46 voila 14:46 well 14:46 now it is much more clear 14:46 all the points 14:46 and makes sense :) 14:46 -!- could have another ?action=score&score=10,20,70 14:46 but... 14:47 do you see a flaw? 14:47 uhm 14:48 so far..no :-/ 14:48 what do you do with the credits? 14:49 the more you have the more tasks you accomplished? 14:49 ok ok 14:49 but if I want it to be an economical system 14:49 I have to be able to spend those credits 14:50 right 14:50 how do you monetize them you mean? 14:51 no no 14:51 let's say you did your watering task 14:51 yes 14:51 you get 300 credits 14:52 now what? 14:52 I dont know 14:52 :) 14:52 yes, right 14:52 what do I do with those credits? 14:53 that's why I was in the municipal library yesterday 14:53 oh 14:53 thrilled :P 14:53 read books on the psychology of motivation 14:54 you mean how to be motivted but your groing credits? 14:55 you have to be able to spend them to want more 14:55 yes 14:55 crdit dependent 14:55 but how :-/ 14:55 and in what? 14:55 without that it would be just a point system 14:56 which I think would also work well 14:56 but... not as good I suspect. 14:58 yes I agree 14:58 but still not clear 14:58 how do you spend, and in what, your credits? 14:59 maybe in special actions of the system 14:59 like tools to be more efficient 14:59 getting stats or sth 14:59 like in upgradings? 14:59 bonus? 14:59 yes 15:02 thats stimulating, yes 15:02 because ideally it should be "internal" I mean closed in the sytstem 15:02 yes 15:03 yes, that I understood 15:03 is not that you end up winning a blender or a bicicle :P 15:04 you could 15:04 but that's harder to manage and more costly 15:05 and not really appealing 15:05 well depends 15:06 let's say for you you get Fabien's hugs 15:06 how appealing would it sound? 15:06 oh boy 15:06 very appealing! 15:06 absolutely temting 15:06 http://www.openmoney.org/ 15:07 so that could be the kind of system to use (no need then to program this part again) 15:07 meaning that it would provide a full fledge "money" system 15:07 but that doesn't solve the spending problem. 15:10 but it's ok 15:10 it can be solved later on 15:10 and even changed during and after 15:12 what is about exactly that project exactly 15:12 it's to make your own money 15:13 like the "credits" I was using before 15:13 ok 15:14 I can do it myself, keeping the balance and stuff, it's actually easy 15:14 then one making its own money and joing that community could be able in spending it in services offered by that community, or is not like that that works? 15:14 but if I want to expand it further, this openmoney could be used 15:15 maybe 15:16 like me deciding to spend it in papers or fertilizers 15:17 and offering my servicetoo to others, like consulting or something like that 15:17 maybe 15:17 they would habe to recognize your currency and thus your work as useful first though 15:17 yes, of course 15:18 it has to be valid 15:18 but that's not what I was looking for yet 15:18 just the tehcnical aspect of managing money 15:19 yes 15:19 but I think you are on the right path 15:19 it could become social later on, why not, but first no. 15:19 step by step. 15:20 yes :) 15:23 obviously it would be integrated to each wiki 15:23 and each page with a To do seciton 15:24 yes
