The route and tools to
a "Personal EU" era
Check where you are going on this route map
A route map is the most important tool for a traveler in a new landscape. Check this map for an overall picture of the journey to the Personal EU era.
See where you are and what you can do now to move step by step forward

Suggest measures that the Union administration could take now and in the future to make the whole thing successful.
The idea of a Personal EU TeamFinder is to choose one person from every EU country and bring them at once to your desktop.
All Personal EU members should be EU citizens and give real registration information, because the Personal EU system must be so safe that you can use it for buying, selling, official initiatives, etc.
The Internet already knows the usage profiles of its users. TeamFinder uses this information to bring to your screen from each EU country that one whose challenges are most similar to yours.
You accept the suggested team members one by one - and if you don't accept somebody, then TeamFinder will suggest the "next best one".
Your screen (laptop, mobile phone…) is the meeting place of your Personal EU team, and the Personal EU communication tools make the interactivity nice and easy.
The "Personal EU Team Finder" is a first step towards qualified union-wide collaboration, team toolbox, millions of "Personal EU" teams…
Your Personal EU team would serve as an inspiring Union-wide "home nest" for you, as proof of a whole new kind of Union-wide self-esteem. With Union-wide team tools and exciting citizen challenges, Personal EU is a complementary level of "organiczation", perhaps the best and most natural thing that could happen to the Union's Digital Decade as a pioneer of citizen-centricity.
A Personal EU TeamFinder is something very essential, it doesn't exist yet - and the EU should do it for us now.

Understander
When you have your personal union on Your screen it's time to say something so that everyone can understand it: for example "Hello, who are you - how are you?"
Because there are tens of different languages in the union, more than 200 million people (of almost 450 million) do not have a common language.
Between languages, there already are good online translation and interpretation programs - but less between smaller languages which are the majority.
By investing enough the European Union could offer an online any language-to-any language system for anyone in the union.
The biggest reason to develop such a system, however, is to ensure the existence of our language richness - and the unique cultural resources behind languages.
Our present language situation means, that too little actual information will be translated into the smaller languages - which means exclusion and death of languages.
The opposite way is what we need: let's be proud of our language richness and let's use it as our strength in innovation through interactivity!
The Understander. What could it do for you:
Show/speak any language allowing challenging cooperation between individuals from different EU countries with unique cultural resources.
The online translation should be an essential part of our interactivity. Promising net translators already exist, but there is still a lot to fix (as this text written by Finn proves). Let's cooperate to understand things better!
Access to your Personal EU team should from the first beginning be available using different ways, at least dotcom and mobile phone. Digi-TV can also be used as a computer which means a new channel. These 3 media are integrating so totally that after some years you can't even remember how it was when they were separated. The system allowing those 3 interactive Personal EU ways could be called a 3VIATOR.
What could the 3viator do for you:
Allow open tv/dotcom/mobile compatible interactive EU27 citizen online teams.
Comparer
When you talk to an international audience about your familiar local topics, listeners will easily prefer to think about their local issues. Not because they don't care, but because they can't follow what you really mean.
The Personal EU system should include a component that extracts parallel facts from each country and displays them alongside the original. Let's call this tool a comparer. It makes the multicultural discussion more rewarding and interesting for all participants and helps the groups get good practical ideas.
What could the Comparer do for you:
Find comparing technical, economical and social information from each EU country and place the results as visu/audio chrystallizations for comparison on the map.
By comparing we understand each other much easier.
Voting is a good way to come to democratic solutions.
The Personal EU teams would benefit from an illustrated VOTER showing the plus and minus volumes of the team's opinions.
The results could (if the team allows) be saved into a common European opinion bank for later research and daily use.
What could the Voter do for you:
Let your team vote anytime anysubject and show the result as visual and numeral graphs.
Allow with your permission saving the results into an union-wide opinion bank.
Projecter
Because the team members have much in common, they are in a growing scale specialists in those common things.
It's easy to imagine them as a commercial organization with own products and services.
Succeeding in businesses would be much easier with help of system intelligence, a PROJECTER, recommending suitable response areas for each team member.
What could the Projecter do for you:
Collect personal characteristics of the team members into one chart and draw them as a organisation suggestion to the team.
Projects are not just chats about hobbies and regular online meetings. These teams are unique opportunities to really do something essential together - maybe a common small union-wide business.
Elevator
Union-wide good ideas are not just for the Personal EU teams themselves.
Companies and EU organizations will be interested in getting such teams with such ideas.
The ELEVATOR is a tool that easily takes team initiatives and good ideas f.ex. to the commissions floor - or vice versa.
What could the Elevator do for you:
Direct asking and answering connection to/from the commission's, parliament's, member nations' and president's floors.
Seller/Buyer
A continuous EU10, EU22 or EU27 team is a fantastic experience for anyone - even for union-level professionals.
Sooner or later the teams find the opportunities of the similarity.
They start to buy together.
They realize that they can do unique things together and sell them using their union-wide network.
To help those things succeed between a class-size team, they need a helping tool to share profits and costs and take care of common and personal debits and credits. The team needs a SELLER/BUYER.
What could the Seller/Buyer do for you:
Ensure safe and easy cost sharing in job finding, offering, bidding, buying, selling, and accounting inside and between Personal EU teams - and with their external public and private cooperators.
Academy
All Personal EU team knowledge should from the first beginning be collected to a global PERSONAL EU ACADEMY.
A good challenging virtual/physical academy and academy network to ensure the future of the union-wide Personal EU era.
There is still a lot of need for EU-level entrepreneurship education, as the EU of 450 million inhabitants now has approx. 25 million small and medium-sized companies of 1-250 employees and 1% larger than that.
What could the Personal EU Academy do for you:
University level development center for reaching EU's goal "World's most advanced innovation society".
Places to learn and graduate human-centric future-based life-long, union-wide and challenge-high Personal EU dreamteam organi(c)zation culture.
The task of the Academy would be to show the path from the birth of a successful Union-wide team to the implementation and development of successful hobby circles, joint purchases, tourism circles, startups, representative offices, manufacturing circles and EU SMEs.
