Perhaps something like an App for iPhone and Android, coupled with a Wiki of information about these Global Jobs / Weekly Themes, and Community Responsibilities / Words for the Day.

Much of it has been told on my Facebook Account:  sea7kenp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note:  If you apply to be a Facebook "Friend", please identify yourself as a follower of this, or one of my other blogs, via sending a short, personal message with your "Friend Request", for a faster "vetting" process, up to same day service.  (I may look for actual evidence, however, like the "Follower Lists" for my list of blogs).  Why do I need to do this?  All the Robots, SPAM and otherwise, that regularly try to "pretend" they are human (like Corporations regularly do.  Hint hint, Republicans...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One example of another blog is http://greenlibertarianparty.blogspot.com The Green Libertarian Party, an actual United States Political Party that I could use to run for office, national or otherwise.  My motto:  "Neutrality  --  With Attitude".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While my right arm is messed up, please consider this blog suspended, as far as new activity is concerned.

The Theme for this Week is Mediation, my "home" Global Job on the "Michael DNA Entity Chart".  The Word for Today (end of Wednesday) is Absorption (the Community Responsibility for my Artisan Essence Twin).  Today (Thursday's) Word is Study.  Friday's Word will be Reflection (think Mirror), and then we get to Saturday, position 567 [Love] of the Michael DNA Chart, my home Community Responsibility on Ring 17, Cadre 1, Entity 3.  There will be two Words that day, Overview and Perspective, two huge reasons I dislike having to be stuck in "endless details".  (Think "Executive Summary").  Perhaps I'll be able to add an entry next week.  (If I get bored enough.  LOL!)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3606746281187956172-883673125238458990?l=michaeltransits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaeltransits.blogspot.com/feeds/883673125238458990/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3606746281187956172&amp;postID=883673125238458990' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3606746281187956172/posts/default/883673125238458990'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3606746281187956172/posts/default/883673125238458990'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaeltransits.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-current-physical-situation.html' title='My current physical situation.'/><author><name>Kenneth Parker</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09840916663478499539</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tJATr3PZMPM/Saa8nUrziUI/AAAAAAAAAAM/OEdzGLiUATY/S220/Ken_Parker.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606746281187956172.post-8476563609979263837</id><published>2011-03-02T05:50:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-02T05:58:29.119-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Word for the day:  Wednesday, March 2, 2011</title><content type='html'>The Word for today (Wednesday) is Competence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you competent to be yourself?

That is, of course, easier in a stable environment.  But I find an inner stability, such that I was able to function effectively in a dream two nights ago, where I was one of many "angels", helping a planet, who's sun was about to go Supernova.  (Most of the planet was already evacuated, but these were the last, the strongest, and basically calm and stoic about having to deal with death.  It was actually quite a pleasant assignment!  And the Nova itself was spectacular!  To bad I couldn't bring back any pictures, but it was only my consciousness that survived, and I awoke in my bed, here in Seattle).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3606746281187956172-7709719168936049272?l=michaeltransits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaeltransits.blogspot.com/feeds/7709719168936049272/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3606746281187956172&amp;postID=7709719168936049272' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3606746281187956172/posts/default/7709719168936049272'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3606746281187956172/posts/default/7709719168936049272'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaeltransits.blogspot.com/2011/02/word-for-day-sunday-february-27-2011.html' title='Word for the Day:  Sunday, February 27, 2011'/><author><name>Kenneth Parker</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09840916663478499539</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='26' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tJATr3PZMPM/Saa8nUrziUI/AAAAAAAAAAM/OEdzGLiUATY/S220/Ken_Parker.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606746281187956172.post-5052941723433094105</id><published>2011-02-27T03:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-27T03:35:31.539-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Weekly Theme:  Week of 2/27 to 3/05/2011</title><content type='html'>The Theme for this Week is Cooperation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like this theme better than last week's (Circulation), as it's easier to be concrete about Cooperation.
