Kune - "a software platform for federated social networking and collaborative work, focusing on workgroups rather than in individuals."
MoveCommons - "a web tool for initiatives, collectives and NGOs to declare and visibilize the core principles they are committed to."
Alerta - a "community-driven alert system."
Plantare - "community currency for seed exchange."
The World of Alternatives - "a proof-of-concept initiative that aims to classify and document collectively alternatives of our “Another World is Possible” in Wikipedia."
Karma - "a proof-of-concept gadget for a decentralized reputation rating system."
Massmob - "proof-of-concept gadget for calling and organizing meetings and smart mobs."
Troco - "a proof-of-concept gadget of a peer-to-peer currency."
Brick (temporal nickname) - "a forthcoming initiative for guiding student assignments towards the solution of real problems and the sharing of their results for reusing/replicating/adapting the solutions."
