Community Currencies are monetary systems for and by the community. RGB, or Colourcash, provides an alternative for LETS, Time-Based and other community currencies or dollar/euro users, with the following differences: * The RGB Unit is bound to a real-life definition. * The 3D-system allows for support of recycling-based production. Similar to C2C, cradle-to-cradle. * The Yearly Reset shows that this is not about accumulating wealth, but about accumulating happyness and community.

Sowseed is a browser based application using Apache, PHP and Mysql. Seeds are sown into trays which are numbered and barcoded. Against each seed tray the species are recorded along with the google map link of this location. There is a need for seed growers to preserve many varieties of heirloom seeds in order to maintain biodiversity. Several small groups hooked into the same database can benefit from a collaborative effect ensuring the greatest range of rare seeds are sown. Entries can be linked together so if seedling thinning has been carried out the original planting of that seed can be accessed. The barcodes can be scanned by an Android phone and the details of the sowing recalled. The species list is user defined with the option of providing a url for each entry so the characteristics of the plant can be readily accessed.
