About The Ideas To Power Foundation
Saturday, August 08, 2009 Posted by David James Howell
Ideas To Power is the member-powered think tank where everyone gets to be a futurist and share their ideas on important issues. If we are going to stay the most innovative nation in the world we will need everyone on board. Ideas To Power demonstrates that anyone's idea can be great, and by working together on a problem our power multiplies exponentially. People like the Wright Brothers, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford were everyday people who had the confidence to think BIG. Most people today don't think they can come up with a revolutionary idea, and sadly that becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
An active membership will always be the greatest strength of Ideas To Power. We urgently need forward-thinking people from every profession to become Ideas To Power members. The Ideas To Power Foundation never asks for financial donations from our members nor do we have advertising anywhere on this website. What we do request is your active participation and sincere desire to improve yourself, your community, and the planet we all share. With a coordinated effort and the right tools we will help solve the challenges of the modern world.

The IdeasToPower.Org website is the home base of the Ideas To Power Foundation. As a whole the content is a mixture of aggregation alongside original reporting and commentary.

The Ideas To Power Foundation is planning to design and build a house from the year 2050. This project will bring together the most innovative minds and tech companies. This is not one of those green-energy or gadget-packed houses you see from time to time. This is a house representing what a cutting-edge house could be like in the year 2050.
Disneyland did the same thing back in 1957 with their House of the Future. Disney jumped ahead 30 years to simulate a home from the late 1980s. We will jump ahead 40 years to realistically simulate a home from the early 2050s. The Ideas To Power 2050 House will be designed by our members, along with input from the world’s leading scientists, technologists and futurists. Almost everything in the house will be technology that does not currently exist, or is in an early stage of development. All simulated as realistically as possible.
The possibilities are endless when you open up your imagination to what the future could bring. Imagine you are in your media room playing an interactive video game in the year 2050. This is virtual reality like you've never imagined. You are immersed inside a holographic alien world created on the fly by your home supercomputer. Everything in your house is powered by a new kind of energy source. You take a quick break to chat with a friend who lives in another country. You both sit on the couch and talk face to face just like you were in the same room. In rolls your domestic robot with a cold drink. Now back to that video game...
