“Life. A fanny thing that happened to me on the way to the grave.”
(I don’t remember who)
Your life is an unbelievable collection of events.Some of them a planned by you in some of your roles, some of them are planned by someone else, some of them just are on your way. Some of your events are open and free, some need a key: ticket, papers, authorizing, permission, passport, money.Instead of just live the event you mostly first have to get the key. Not just once but over and over again. Why should it be so complicated? In the information society all services can get the keys to know what we need or want – to decide how to bring it to us.The question is just when we meet the service and how much we use it. “When” is something between now and never and “How much” is something between nothing and everything. Everything that can be digitized will be digitized, they say. That means services for your and my life events, too.
And when something happens to us, it usually means “now” for many other events – this chain reaction in offering services more and more happens automatically.
This is a very raugh list prototype but tells the idea.
Within X? days
1? Wake up: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
1? Breakfast: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
1? Go to work: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
1? Calls: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
1? Forget something: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
X? Moon race: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
30? Holiday: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
1? Go to sleep: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
8000? Pension: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
15000? The End: Choices? Price? Offer pack?
How could your complete list look like? Your private and work bookkeeping tells much about your past.But how about your future. The tax bureau database and your credit card system already could make a good guess. And so the even do when planning their own future strategies. To make everything easier let’s stop asking What and Why.Let’s start asking When and How much.
Innovative interactivity!

Yesterday TietoEnator arranged for 150 decision makers a “Let’s build together a digital future“ business seminar in Helsinki.
Top speakers and their presentations showed a covering range of big visions, missions and strategies – and promising current phases.
The most essential person in the seminar was Mr. Same Guy (could be Mrs or Ms Same Guy or just YOU, too). In every presentation that person was in the center: Instead of building services for private persons, home owners, consumers, hobbyists, travellers, employees, bosses, companies… we should concentrate in getting 24/7/365 lifelong services for individuals, because they (we all) have many roles more and more connected to eachothers. Seeing how this total unit behaves helps all kinds of services see next service situations to make everything very easy for all parts.
In my Personal EU platform every citizen of thew European union has her/his own European union consisting of “Someone like me” from each EU country. These union-wide “Personal planets” are the same thing as Same Guy – they just are up to 27 times bigger and self-organized to be ready for union-wide “Same Guy services”.
You as a European member of your personal private, hobby, development, project and work/business circles should take a good look at “Same Guy” and “Personal EU”.
And if I may suggest, you should help all your organizations make the Personal EU era come true.
How about that?
Successful cooperation!
