    Shift in mindset, of course. I like it, Jacob. The notion of changing one's currency reminds me of a scene from the film, "Star Trek: First Contact" when an earthling played by Alfre Woodard asks Patrick Stewart's Captain Jean-Luc Picard how he gets paid. To which, Picard responds he doesn't get paid because money doesn't exist but they work to better society.

    I don't know if currency as we know it will be removed, but it will certainly change. It has to.

    Hi Jacob,

    I like giving as the best social media practice a lot. When you give to others without expecting anything in return they are very likely to help you later even when you don't ask for it. When I'm in the right mood I use twitter search on certain keywords like WordPress and offer assistance when someone says something like, "i upgraded and have lost my site". I enjoy fixing WordPress, I might make a new friend, and it may enhance my own reputation. The last point, however, isn't why I do it.

    If everyone gave without expectations, there would be no reason to take as we would all be providing for each other.
