<h1><strong>BlueJean Time</strong></h1> <p>Blue Collar Objects' vision is to organize the work of a generation. A generation accustomed to sharing experiences with people they rarely or never see. We created <strong>BlueJean Time</strong>, a platform with FREE Apps enabling individuals to organize work online and make money building and sharing affordable business Apps with associates. We are shattering the barriers to entry for ordinary people to build extraordinary businesses. We are demystifying the tools used to run businesses and make money on the web.</p> <p> </p> <p><a href="<iframe width="640" height="360" src="/www.youtube.com/embed/qKUSenldoKg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>" target="_blank"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qKUSenldoKg" width="824" height="455" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></a></p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eUOwhPso9Mk?feature=player_detailpage" width="827" height="364" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p><img src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUOwhPso9Mk&feature=player_detailpage" alt="" /></p> <p><a href="<iframe width="640" height="360" src="/www.youtube.com/embed/Q1ZXGJI7dFk?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>" target="_blank"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Q1ZXGJI7dFk?feature=player_embedded" width="829" height="367" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></a></p> <h2>Accessing BlueJean Time</h2> <p>After being invited, a user goes to <a href="http://www.bluejeantime.com/" target="_top">http://www.bluejeantime.com</a>, logs in and enters the <a href="https://twiki.bluecollarobjects.com/bin/view/BlueCollar/BlueJean" target="_blank">BlueJean</a> Time world. In this world the human can go to Places that they are a member of by invitation or ownership (any human can set up any number of Places for free and invite members to join their place). Every Place, upon creation, is equipped with the Connect App enabling "Connect"ion with other members of the Place via artifacts like Topics, Elections, Shared Checklists, a Shared Calendar, Files...). Within each place, members can collaborate privately, where all communications are encrypted... more secure than email.</p> <p>Every <a href="https://twiki.bluecollarobjects.com/bin/view/BlueCollar/BlueJean" target="_blank">BlueJean</a> Time member has a Back Pocket which is with you as you navigate from place to place. This Back Pocket gives you access to all of your stuff. You can update your profile settings... decide if you want email notifications or to get notifications from your Back Pocket only. The Back Pocket Global Feed gives you a view of activity occurring across all the places you are a member of and in one click you can look at the specific activity and take action (activity could be an update to one the artifacts like Topic, Election...). In short, you can reach into your Back Pocket and find out what is going on in the different facets of your business and personal life. Work with no Office Space.</p> <p>Every BlueJean TIme member also has Pocket Money which is an App that shows you how much money you have made through $haring Apps or owning paid access places.</p> <h2><strong>What problem does BlueJean Time solve?</strong></h2> <p>Two main problems:<br />1) How can you run a team/organization where people never meet each other to get work done, thereby removing need for office space<br />2) In this world where people live in many contexts (business, home, friends...) how do we simplify context management so that people can quickly and simply switch contexts and complete work maintaining the privacy of each facet of their lives.</p> <h2><strong>What is the BlueJean Time solution to stated problem?</strong></h2> <p>There are 3 main points to the solution:</p> <ol> <li>Use Agility (simplified for non-technical organizations) as a management approach tailored to remote workers</li> <li>Insanely simple collaboration platform enabling brainstorming/voting/worklist generation and work assignment in a fully private but transparent environment</li> <li>Backpocket enables global view across a user's life contexts with powerful business search capabilities which provide rapid access to all of a user's stuff so work can be done across facets with minimal mouse clicks</li> </ol> <h2><strong>How is BlueJean Time monetized?</strong></h2> <p>A number of humans have asked us this question. Given that members get to use all these cool features for free it is a logical question. There are a number of ways the BlueJean Time platform is monetized:</p> <ul> <li>Building Apps on behalf of organizations</li> <li>Sharing in revenue of Apps built and sold on the platform</li> </ul> <p>Over time additional monetizing approaches will emerge. We built this platform with the intention of democratizing the creation of fully teleworked companies, purchasing of Apps providing exactly the features desired by the purchaser and the ability to provide services as an employee or contractor regardless of physical or location impediments. As such we seek to make money following the principle that members that contribute to the sale of a product or service should automatically share in the revenue... win/win. More to come...</p> <h2><strong>What company created BlueJean Time?</strong></h2> <p><strong>Blue Collar Objects</strong> is a disruptive force, using <a href="http://www.bluejeantime.com/" target="_blank">BlueJean Time Connect technology</a>, Agile techniques and highly disciplined management to simplify how it is run, and how it interacts with Employees, Customers, and Business Partners to deliver unique business value to its customers.</p> <p>Since its founding in March 2000, <a href="http://www.bluecollarobjects.com/" target="_blank">Blue Collar Objects</a>’ objective has been to create and use technology to enable a decentralized, intentional crowd — whether the crowd be talented employees who must work from home due to family, health or other reasons; customers who exist anywhere on the planet and may be under-served; or service providers that offer extraordinary solutions to contribute from wherever they may be based. As a company, we seek to do good — to make the world better by using these techniques to increase the business access and participation of diverse, decentralized, self-interested parties. This “wisdom of crowds” notion permeates everything we do.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bluecollarobjects.com/" target="_blank">Blue Collar Objects</a> is not just a company; it is the instantiation of a dream. It is a dream of realizing a company that seeks and attains win/win relationships with its customers, employees and vendors. A dream of creating a company that will maintain its name, stay true to its ideals, and be revered generations after its founders are gone. A dream of providing an example of a company that achieves business success without being driven solely by the bottom line; one that cultivates an inspired, energized workforce hell-bent on achieving Blue Collar’s simple mission: “Organize the work of a Generation”</p> <p> </p>
