For Customers

For Reviewers

–
–
•
Allow search for specific reviewer within any book page
Adapt Lists to show full review by the list maker, for any book
Adapt Social Life of Books visualization for context
Option to be visible to “Popular In” collectives
Allow sorting of full reviews into categories similar to lists
Provide dashboard for seeing titles only for categorization
Provide tally of recent votes across all books
Provide spreadsheet of votes for all books by category/title
For Publishers
– Allow specified minimum orders of two for shrink-wrapped books
•
For Authors
– Offer a Kinko’s one-of publishing alternative to China
– Solicit customer interests for books that do not exist yet
– Provide a portal for buying and selling raw data & piecework
One-Page Version of Brief
1. A3 hosts all Information in all
languages on consignment.
2. Sell content at three levels:
1. Synthetic (100% profit)
2. Footnotes (micro-cash profit)
3. Original works (50% profit)
3. Hence, put all publishers out of
business and kill carbon cost.
4. Make sense of all information for profit,
and provide F/OSS analytic toolkit.
5. Hence, put Microsoft and ORACLE out
of business, create interoperable net.
6. Show, make sense of, and sell all
overt government information (national
to local) and especially budget data,
7. Show, make sense of, and sell
corporate information/ evaluations
including carbon & other footprints.
8. See “True Cost” information via
ScanBack at point of sale, profit from
buycotts that choose to go green.
9. Migrate world to paying for knowledge
by the paragraph or text message
while also creating new knowledge in
near-real-time, owning the aggregate.
10. Show and sell memes & mind-maps
and networks at clan and tribe level.
11. Make education free (to capture 5
billion new customers), and in doing
so, save the Earth.
12. Grow by an order of magnitude.

Vint Cerf Predicts:
By 2010 more than 50 percent of books sold worldwide
will be printed on demand at the point of sale in the form
of library-quality paperbacks.
Steele Asks: Amazon-FedEx-Kinkos?
NOTE: BookSurge wastes carbon.
By 2010 more than 50 percent of books worldwide will
be read on digital devices rather than in print form.
Steele Asks: Amazon-IBM-Yahoo-CISCO-Trio?
NOTE: Annotation of online versions good, needs
work—bring in Doug Englebart from Bootstrap.

The Problem
• Earth changing faster
– Changes that used to
take 10,000 years now
take 3 years
– Peak Oil now definite
– Water Scarcity is the
other major shortfall
– Pandemic disease soon?
– Individual Nations are
powerless in isolation
• Information exploding
– Government focuses on
expensive secrets and
military enemies
– Bureaucracies focus on
day to day business
– No one is dedicated to
making sense of all
information in all
languages all the time
WARNING: Books ten years in the writing no longer cut it—need real-time
knowledge. At the same time, most products are unaffordable when “true cost” is
calculated—Amazon can become the enabler for “green” products & services, and
profit thereby. We need a global public intelligence network with a serious hub.

Gap: the

between what

and what you
can use!
TIME
Open source information is more complex than secrets…
Foreign languages are critical to global understanding.
Time-Value of Information
This is really important!
• Time is the one asset that
cannot be bought nor
replaced.
• If Amazon can become the
hub for near-real-time
(NRT) collection, sensemaking, and tailored
dissemination, this is 80%
of the profit base/intangible
value, inclusive of
enhanced global
understanding,
collaboration, & sanity.

3rd Generation
4th Generation
5th Generation
6th Generation
7th Generation
What Do We Need to Know
Easy: Where is the army?
Easy: Where are the trenches?
Moderate: How many with what?
Hard: Watch every non-state actor.
Hard: Watch everything on the fly.
Hard: Make sense of billions of bits.
Very Hard: 24/7, 29+ languages and
get your own house in order.
From Linear to Systems Thinking
• Agricultural Era:
Simple localized systems
• Industrial Era:
Complex isolated systems
• Information Era:
Complex combinations of
complex systems that most do
not understand
• Conceptual Era:
Learning to learn, to anticipate,
to collaborate, and to create
infinite wealth at all levels
• Verbal communications face to
face (one to one)
• Books (one to many)
• Multi-media products (mixed)
• All information in all languages
all the time, with historical &
cultural context, and the tools
to make sense and get
answers in real time. READWRITE not READ ONLY.
Connecting dots to dots at
machine speed, dots to
people, and people to people.
This era started around 1992—we are 15 years behind the power
curve. The good news is that everyone else is 25 years behind.

• What did the previous slide really mean?
–
–
–
–
–
Access all information in all languages on consignment, but the only
one with all of it, all with geospatial and time-date tags
Make sense of all that information, in detail and in the macro or meta
sense, and sell that sense to every government & corporation
This includes belief systems at the individual, neighborhood, clan, and
tribe levels
Reality check national, state, & local budgets
Reality check corporate and non-profit budgets
• The USG is insolvent. This is bad for business.
• Corporations are predatory. This is bad for business.
• Snowcrash is here now. Amazon can not only beat Google, it can
crush Microsoft & ORACLE.
• Amazon can be the foundation for restoring informed democracy
and moral capitalism—natural capitalism—while lifting the world
from poverty and creating 5 billion new clients.

harnessing the distributed
intelligence of the Whole Earth,
while saving the Earth.
Three Major Profit Streams
1
2
3
1. Pure new profit from
synthetic information
free of copyright
2. Increased profit from
monetizing at quote and
page levels
3. Shared profit from
displacing publishers
and helping green
companies increase
marketshare, put WalMart out of business by
helping local producers.
If you are among 7% of color-blind, the above color is cash green…..
Profitable First Steps
•
•
•
•
•
A3 Free to Academia, NGOs,
USSOCOM—this sets stage for
synthetic information profit and
displacing Institute of Scientific
Information citation analysis
service
Create Global Intelligence
Council—this harnesses most
experts who are paid in access
while A3 earns cash
Adopt Golden Candle Society as
Global Registry for anyone with a
brain—change the model,
aggregate customer requirements
and then meet them immediately
Monetize by paragraph and
hour—double A3 revenue
Displace publishers and
consultants—double again
•
•
•
Offer F/OSS STRONG ANGEL
Toolkit—death to MS
Accelerate digitization, collaborate
with Internet Archives (Brewster
Kahle) and Library of Congress
Become the Information Merchant
Bank with three objectives:
– 1) double Amazon revenue in five
years;
– 2) use the cell phone to profit from
point of sale diversion of endusers;
– 3) save the planet by providing
free education in all languages,
extend Amazon client base to the
other five billion people.
•
Displace Google or Partner with
Google. Use India as Partner to
create unclassified CIA right now.
Pilot Project:
• Start with what you have on each of these 30 topics
• Go find and digitize the rest or know where it is
• Recruit the top 100 authors for each
• Begin selling old, current, and new knowledge online
• Host annual conference and global database on each
