Welcome

Welcome to Regarding Tomorrow.  This site supports an online think tank where you can share your hopes and fears of the future through discussion and writing (and eventually images).  By exchanging and building on our ideas, we can flesh out details about how we and our descendants might live, love, play, travel and experience our universe in ever greater granularity.

As we share, each idea triggers new or more detailed ideas - which trigger more ideas in turn.  As we work together, we try to gain greater detail and perhaps more reliability and validity in our views of the future. 

To support the community goal, this site offers:

• Somewhere to have intelligent conversation that accumulates towards something bigger and cooler than what many of us get to do every day.
• Track and share current events through blog posts and share thoughts on each.
• A place to share your ideas of the future through the medium of storytelling.
• An opportunity to read stories that get our minds racing and make the day more interesting.
• A opportunity to receive feedback on your ideas and how well you communicate them through writing.

For an idea of how speculative fiction influences the future, read Rachel Marone's article Are We Creating the Future by Predicting It? or watch the documentaries Prophets of Science Fiction or How William Shatner Changed the World.   Whatever your interests and time allow for, feel free to enjoy and share as you are able.
