What is a Social Entrepreneur?
An example of a social entrepreneur is Muhammad Yumus, Nobel Peace Prize winner, the promoter of Village Banking and Microfinancing, the founder of Grameen Bank. Social entrepreneurs are individuals with innovative solutions to society’s most pressing social problems. They are ambitious and persistent, tackling major social issues and offering new ideas for wide-scale change. Rather than leaving societal needs to the government or business sectors, social entrepreneurs find what is not working and solve the problem by changing the system, spreading the solution, and persuading entire societies to take new leaps. Social entrepreneurs often seem to be possessed by their ideas, committing their lives to changing the direction of their field. They are both visionaries and ultimate realists, concerned with the practical implementation of their vision above all else.
Each social entrepreneur presents ideas that are user-friendly, understandable, ethical, and engage widespread support in order to maximize the number of local people that will stand up, seize their idea, and implement with it. In other words, every leading social entrepreneur is a mass recruiter of local changemakers—a role model proving that citizens who channel their passion into action can do almost anything.

Simple Philosophy: People are assets and relationships matter! And when you bring millions of people together at one place, you have the ability to change the world! Look at what MySpace did, over 160,000,000 members in 3+ years, and this was without a mission! Year two they got bought by Fox Entertainment for almost $600,000,000 dollars! Months later, they do a 900+ Million dollar deal with Google*! Facebook just recently sold 1.6% of their network for $240,000,000 to Microsoft, giving them a 15 BILLION valuation! Yes, there is POWER in NUMBERS! What is your Inter-NET worth? How much are your digital assets worth? Example, you have lets say, 100 friends connected to you. Lets say your friends are half as popular as you and have 50. That is 100 x 50= 5000. Lets go another degree and say those 5000 have 50 friends too. That is 5000 x 50= 250,000. And lets go to the 3rd degree and say they have 50 friends each too. That is 250,000 x 50= 12,500,000. Over 12 million within only 3 degrees of separation! Can any average person communicate within ANY social network or email campaign or whatever method to over 12 million people for FREE? **
Want to make a difference? We realize that the true power of these social networking sites lay with the people that join them, so we thought of a way to reward and give back to the community that will help us grow the cause. We have done something that no other company has attempted to do and that is create the world's first Financial Social Entrepreneur Network, the world's first M-Commerce Social Utility! Not only does every member have a built in Selfbank account, they are also an owner of their own domain, allowing them to create their own business or leverage their existing business by M-Commerce enabling their sales and fund raising campaigns!
What is M-Commerce?
It is everything that E-Commerce is, but WAY MORE! M-commerce (mobile commerce) is the buying and selling of goods and services through wireless handheld devices such as cellular telephone and personal digital assistants (PDAs). Known as next-generation e-commerce, m-commerce enables users to access the Internet without needing to find a place to plug in. The emerging technology behind m-commerce, which is based on the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), has made far greater strides in Europe, where mobile devices equipped with Web-ready micro-browsers are much more common than in the United States. But now, with SelfBank Mobile Banking and Payments, M-commerce is going to a whole new level, not requiring special software or hardware and can work on any phone or carrier and POS system.
In order to exploit the m-commerce market potential, handset manufacturers such as Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola, and Qualcomm are working with carriers such as AT&T Wireless and Sprint to develop WAP-enabled smart phones, the industry's answer to the Swiss Army Knife, and ways to reach them. Using Bluetooth technology, smart phones offer fax, e-mail, and phone capabilities all in one, paving the way for m-commerce to be accepted by an increasingly mobile workforce.
As content delivery over wireless devices becomes faster, more secure, and scalable, there is wide speculation that m-commerce will surpass wireline e-commerce as the method of choice for digital commerce transactions. The industries affected by m-commerce include:
Financial services, which includes mobile banking (when customers use their handheld devices to access their accounts and pay their bills) as well as brokerage services, in which stock quotes can be displayed and trading conducted from the same handheld device.
Telecommunications, in which service changes, bill payment and account reviews can all be conducted from the same handheld device
Service/retail, as consumers are given the ability to place and pay for orders on the fly.
Information services, which include the delivery of financial news, sports figures and traffic updates to a single mobile device IBM and other companies are experimenting with speech recognition software as a way to ensure greater security for m-commerce transactions.
