The Hour Exchange in Portland, Maine is one of the oldest and largest time exchanges in the US, with over 1,000 members trading over 20,000 hours annually. hOurworld was formed to take the lessons learned from the Hour Exchange and make it available to a wider audience. Terry has been working with Thrive Lake County for the last 2 months to set the stage for a Lake County pilot project of the CommonWealth - a unique and innovative program from hOurworld that will utilize a cooperative business model, and time as an alternative currency to bring about grassroots economic development. We'll talk with Terry about the CommonWealth, and find out more about the upcoming Lake County pilot project due to launch Q1 2013
