In their Extreme Makeover series Wired gave some thinkers/designers the hypothetical task of redesigning one of the most used sites in the world, Craigslist. A site with one of the poorest user experiences on the internet. As a first time visitor it’s hard to even understand what the site is used for.

Some interesting concepts were put forward, some more conceptional than others and it’s interesting to see how easily the site could be different, and how much better it could be.

What if more things were put under review, not necessarily by Wired, conceptual design competitions or students doing mock pitches, but by an agent linking up problems with possible solutions over all instances in society. What if everything was up for public repair, a crowd sourced society, where the ones that create the problems doesn’t own the rights to solving them.

What would you repair?

We’re considering the reading experience on local transport, summer related handicaps, our favourite market, the place we go for lunch amongst other projects. We’ll keep you posted on the progress with those, if you keep us posted on your ones.
