What's in the pipeline?
Briefly, we’re re-writing the entire system from the ground up using an Agile approach (a little at a time with your feedback), incorporating SLIM, TWIG, MariaDB, Bootstrap, MySQLi, and HTML5 to create a very responsive web app for use on all devices. We plan to simplify and streamline the interfaces, and create areas of functionality that may be turned on or off. We have a good history of user actions for both the admin and member sides to guide us.

We believe in Open Innovation! We implement the best ideas of our members and coordinators. This broad based co-production model of networking and development affords us all the best tools for sustaining our local communities!
We believe in removing ALL the barriers to time banking that we can. Access to the hOurworld platform is FREE. It is easy for new members to join and learn, and easy for coordinators to manage and report on their members and activity.
We believe in supporting local diversity while maintaining a central cooperative organization to provide accessible support, training, and communications. We are documenting and teaching these models.
We believe that every member have control over their own privacy and content. We operate on private secure servers and HIPPA compliant data centers where all information is encrypted before going out on the internet.
We believe that time banking is one spoke in a wheel of Movements Moving Together. We foster local community organizations drawing together to create powerful local economies as they integrate CSA, Food Co-op, Buy Local, Transition Town, BALLE, CAP and others. The opportunities are endless!
All the Best from hOurworld
