The Modular Company is a fairly loose collection of individuals and possibly other corporations that collaborate on a variety of projects. Projects are usually commercial, initially the accent will be on 'online' businesses.
When compared with more traditional corporate models the MC has a number of advantages:
In simpler words, a Modular Company is a way to work together with other people with built in safeguards that are designed to minimize the risk of infighting.
Why take part in a MC?
A Modular Company project allows you to contribute risk free to a collaborative effort with a minimum of responsibility and a maximum reward potential. Basically the only thing at risk is your reputation within the Modular Company. You don't need to cancel your day job, mortgage your house or sell your kids.
Concept idee: het online registreren van serienummers van produkten en eventueel ook het registreren van teksten om copyrights te beschermen.
Registreren van serienummers van produkten is interessant in geval van diefstal. Indien de politie hun 'gesloten goederen aangifte systeem' zou koppelen aan speuders, marktplaats en andere tweedehands handelsites zou er veel minder fraude gepleegd worden. Ook zijn er andere leuke concepten te bedenken met de registratie van serienummers zoals b.v. het online volgen waar bepaalde spullen blijven die ooit bij jou zijn geweest.
I think that wherever there is a large enough monoculture of some sort there will be an automatic attraction for spammers and other miscreants to peddle their wares.
The rationale behind this is that as soon as the cost of reaching people goes down the incentive for a spammer to abuse the system will go up. So any kind of place that allows a uniform way to reach a large number of users through automated forms submission, search engine spamming or protocols (such as email) that spam is inevitable.

Lirama is a very large site that contains lyrics of songs.
Buzzem is de werknaam voor het Emagazine van Cas en Co (Motionworks). Via deze site/dit project systeem kunnen we een project administratie opbouwen gericht op het samenstellen van een eerste issue van Buzzem.

Free hosting for everybody
Today i added some content to diyfiles.com in total 6 new diy projects
The new projects are toys, home and garden and transportation.
New ideas and content are welcome.
After a long long (very long!) phonecall with Joyce yesterday where I tried to put my frustrations about the drupal way into words today I decided to take a different approach.
I'm so concerned with the performance of the smaller sites because any one of them has the potential to grow that I am afraid that if one of them does take off that we'd have to rebuild the whole thing without drupal in order to be able to achieve adequate performance. Clearly that would suck :)

The "p2p Bee" lists companies, projects and initiatives related to peer-to-peer technologies.
There are lots of days when I'm happy with drupal, but today was not one of them.
The last couple of days have been an uphill battle to get the data from the old autotagger databases imported into drupal so that users can edit the city records.
I've spent a day or two to move all the countries under the right continent and to clean up all the accents and such, now the time of bulk import has arrived.
