"In a time where computing epitomizes industrial waste, permacomputing encourages the maximizing of hardware lifespans, minimizing energy use and focussing on the use of already available computational resources." (from the permacomputing wiki)

This article sets out a vision for KDE (the free software desktop environment) written by Clinton Ignatov. It doesn't draw on permacomputing explicitly but it is nonetheless full of real-world examples of permacomputing principles, particularly less reliance on omnipresent networking. If you were on the techie end of the spectrum and looking for inspiration to put concepts into practice, IMO this is a great starting point.
