--Hi all,its great to be part of this initiative and im looking forward to getting to know you all (the wizards behind the movement)As a start, My name is Kamal AL Merhebi, I am a finance grad and hold some degrees in Project Management.I have been working for the past 3 years and around 8 months on a new form of social networks, id like to call it an Idea network.the concept is simple, empower people by aligning their collaborative efforts in developing an idea into a project and big things can happen. It is a structured attempt to harness the full capacity of an idea by enabling people to collaborate on the development of the details without straying off the scope or budget baseline.in a summaryETP is a new form of networks (specifically speaking, www.earthtippingpont.com is an idea network) designed to actively transform the users’ ideas into projects that benefit the wellbeing of the planet. This Idea Network aligns the collaborative efforts of its members and users in a structured and systematic way, enhancing the quality of their proposed ideas and eventually the success rate of their projects. the concept emphasizes on the fact that when the mutual needs of people coincide in the same idea, it will be adopted by the masses. One thought propagated through a network designed to have a real output could have monumental effects.Through Earth Tipping Point, you can share your ideas, develop teams, create plans, assign responsibilities, acquire funds for your project and more all for free. It aims to empower individuals interested in fighting a good cause by structuring their ideas and aligning their efforts. The aim is the full disclosure of projects that could benefit our environment. No more funding or donating blindly, we fund your projects that help protect our environment. It is the simplest and most efficient way of gaining supporters for your ideas, with absolutely no cost.ETP recognizes that raising public awareness to environmental hazards and issues is the foundation to all successful environmental projects. Accordingly, the webpage also acts as an information sharing medium, allowing its members to learn about current environmental issues and hazards in an interactive way. You can share articles, geographically map out environmental problems and hazards, develop awareness campaigns or even educate the public.
our vision is:Humanity's collective determination for a better way of life will incrementally compile for a humane resolutionI look forward to collaborating with Coalition of the Willing in any way, as I believe we share the same beliefs.if you would like to take part of ETP and share some ideas, please visit our splash page and signup for the private launch at http://www.earthtippingpoint.com (it is not the animation movie you would expect, cheap stuff but some good words)if you could also share this link with individuals that are interested, I would truly appreciate it.Cheers

The Coalition occupies several spaces for communication and action. Keep the discussion on this list civil & assume good faith. Strive for brevity.
For the what-why-where of Coalition work, look to http://cotw.cc. That wiki functions as a routing-portal and a locus for some of the work. All group efforts should maintain an updated statement of current focus, channels and spaces of work and anything necessary to support orientation & keeping up-to-speed.
"BetterMeans" is where we coordinate our work: making proposals, endorsing & signing up for work, and tracking tasks. https://secure.bettermeans.com/projects/163

Hi all,
It has been such a long time since ive received an email from Coalition group.
I hope I am not straying off the subject with my reply, but concerning the Map ETP has utilized, we did the following:
Used Google Earth API to import all active Wild Fires from MODIS database. Every 2 hours, ETP will be updated with the latest wild fires. Google Maps does not provide this feature, so we had to use google earth.
Other options would be to view
Projects proposed by users
Anonymous reports of ecological and community problems
Unfortunately, the development of Earth Tipping Point was soo expensive for me that I doubt I will be able to continue hiring developers and designers from my own money, when the site brings in no revenues.
That, ofcaurse, without mentioning the serious budget related to marketing it.
I have been working as a SAP BPC Senior Consultant in the MENA area, which was a good source of income to fund further development. But I have taken a serious hit with one contractor is Saudi Arabia that just fled with my money, so now I have to collect (through legal case) before I consider further development.
I had 4 article writers and was working on hiring a social media specialist, additionally, I was ready to start the third phase of development to integrate the timeline on the maps (in addition to data about Severe weather patterns, Earth Quakes and possibly Tsunamis), with some UX enhancements, Sequential tool tips, and other features but this “contractor” is all I am concerned with now.
Tough times, but I always manage. (eventhough, sometimes I think I should just delete ETP all together. It a serious weight to be carried by just one person)

Vary interesting ideas Kamal!
I want to make sure I'm on the same page in regards to the knowledge database Google earth interface. Conceptually, I see it to be a simple blend of pad-mapper but with a timeline. Link: http://www.padmapper.com/
Padmapper.com compiles the data from multiple housing websites (craigslist, apartment.com, and many others) and utilizes the Google maps API to geo-locate the available options found in the database of said websites.
I think that the timeline aspect could be of much use and am curious if there are any thoughts you might have to that point?

Hello Mark,
lets schedule a meeting on Skype, id like to know more about the the knowledge database you want to develop with the Google Earth interface. it’s the missing link, so to speak, for Earth Tipping Point. I have been developing something like that but it is just in its earliest phase on earth tipping point. so far, on Earth Tipping Point, users report on environmental problems according to their geographic location by selecting the category (the list should be enhanced) and writing a summary of 500 characters about it.
the second phase will include some additional options. id be interested in knowing some common grounds we could work on together.
my skype is kamal.merhebi
also, we have been trying to develop a game that feeds on these reported problems, but we are still in the planning phase.
cheers
