Net Neutrality and the Future of the Web

By J Fowler on March 2, 2010

Net neutrality is a huge issue that many folks who use the Web may not be aware of. Today we have an open and largely unregulated World Wide Web but the future is not so certain. Check out some links, recent news and a video concerning the issues that could have a massive impact on the future of how we use the Web:

Sustainable Traditions blogazine launched!

By J Fowler on March 2, 2010

Sustainable Traditions

Our blogazine is live!

We did it and I’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to blog about it. Our in-house project on whole-life Christian faith, Sustainable Traditions, finally has it’s own blogazine (part online magazine part multi-authored blog) and we are growing by leaps and bounds! We are starting to get sponsors for the website and are featuring some really great content from folks around the Web. We continue to network with like-minded organizations and hope at some point to create a non-profit entity to grow the project as we devote more and more of our time to all that is involved with our mission to promote the understanding and advancement of whole-life Christian faith.

Now to bring the project to real life on the local level we hope to launch an initiative that encourages local churches to start community gardens. If you are local to Lynchburg/Bedford Virginia and you’d like to be involved please use the contact form to let us know. Thanks!

It’s that time of year again! As the Advent season progresses and Christmas approaches we turn our hearts and minds to the birth and second coming of JESUS.

Check it out and let us know what you think. Click on the image to go to our Flickr account to download the large version.

Ancient Advent by WISELY WOVEN

To our friends and clients who have supported us this past year we are deeply grateful. To those we have just met and have yet to meet we look forward to connecting in the new year.
This Christmas may you discover the depths and life in knowing and following JESUS who will one day make all things new! Shalom! -JF

Sharing: The Essence of Civilization

By J Fowler on November 25, 2009

A friend of ours posted this on her blog recently:

“Sharing is the essence of teaching. It is, I have come to believe, the essence of civilization . . . Without it, the imagination is but the echo of the self, trapped in a soundproof chamber, reverberating upon itself until it is spent in exhaustion or futility.” -Bill Moyers

I love it! We were made for community friends.

Recent Work: AppomattoxNews.com

By J Fowler on November 25, 2009

Before my wife and I moved to the Central Virgina area we lived up in Northern Virginia (near Warrenton/Manassas). I was doing research about Lynchburg, Bedford and the surrounding towns, job hunting online and in person driving down here for several days to explore. When I was online I stumbled onto several local news portals, one of them being the hyperlocal news site AppomattoxNews.com. At that time the website needed some big help visually; “I wish I could help them redesign this site,” I thought.AppomattoxNews logo

Several years later I began using Twitter and eventually met the owner of AppomattoxNews.com, Linda Goin. After collaborating with her on a local, all day social media seminar/gathering we threw together a website and regional social network to continue what was started at the event. Social Media River was born but with no time and little resources for either of us to pour into it, it was a flash in the pan. I still think it’s a great concept, but it’s day in the sun will have to wait…for now. Continue reading “Recent Work: AppomattoxNews.com”
