Just relax for a moment in your hectic surfing through cyberspace ... relax and enjoy the vibe of our Electronic Village.
We hope that our voice is a worthy one in the blogosphere. The Electronic Village strives to share information that uplifts people of African descent throughout the diaspora. There are a number of ways that you can hear our drumbeat in a timely manner. However, we realize that it is your drumbeat that makes us better. Please comment freely on any post that you read here in the Electronic Village.
If you have any questions, or want to promote your blog then you can do this here! Just leave a 'comment' to this post.
Villager,
ReplyDeleteTrust me when I say that your Electronic Village is more than worthy in the blogosphere. It truly is a great place to refuel the mind.
Beany Lion of the Desert informs me that Electronic Village translates to "Wioska elektroniczna" in Poland. Just another little known Village factoid!
ReplyDeleteI just want to add that we are all people of African descent. Once that is truly realized and honored only then can we look to all the Earth's people's as family. Sometimes I think that way, way, way back in our collective development a shift occurred where some looked to our ancestors and those who still resemble them as a part of a backward past. Realizing and honoring our beginnings both historically and in our personal lives allows us to reach higher aspirations in the future.
ReplyDeleteThe Village is a place for growth and unity with and within all cultures. Once that unity is recognized globally by all people, heaven shall really be upon us. Wayne you are the facilitator allowing such a future to be.
Hi everybody! This is a great idea Villager. Love your blog.
ReplyDeleteYes, worthy, worthy, worthy...
ReplyDeleteVillage:

I just joined here to make comments. I registered a few days ago when the ordeal of the Jena 6 was brought to my attention. As soon as I read the story I sent a fax to the Governor of Louisiana, blistering her for not standing up for these kids, and for her apparent unconcern for the problem of racism.
ReplyDeleteNow this morning I got an email about the red truck with nooses. I was glad to see the boys were arrested.
I'd like to give you all a little bit of my background and what kind of person I am before I go any further.
I was born in 1958 and was raised in the south. I've seen racism first hand all my life. It ain't pretty in fact it makes me sick to my stomach. I have never understood the mentality of a racist. How can you judge a entire race of people because of the color of their skin ? I say judge because the word seems to fit here.
Like the old saying "you can't judge a book by it's cover". All my life every person I've met I have either liked or disliked them on who they are individualy. I am a Christian and as such I view the entire world as God's people. The good and the bad.
I have spent my life working and trying to save a little money. I vote because I have that right, and I know that my right to vote was earned by my ancestors in fact the fight was for recognition that I am not chattel nobody owns me.
Up until January of this year I voted for the lesser of two evils and let it go at that. Trusting that there were enough Christian leaders and groups to make sure the government was doing right by the people. After January I have become a full fledged activist. I am mad as hell and I ain't going to take it anymore. I've learned more than enough about our corruption in government to make me want to give it up and go back to where I was before Jan. 2007. Some days are so discouraging I just have to take time away from the fight. Then I think of our American soldiers, past and present I'm sure they have days like that too, difference is they don't have the option of taking a day off when it gets too much to stand.
What got to me so much to make me mad as hell ? One thing, and from there one thing after another on a daily basis.
That one first thing ? A situation similar to the Jena six. Only one similarity though and that was two men arrested, when a three day suspension would have been too much but acceptable. These two men were unjustly tried and convicted to serve 10 and 11 years in prison. They have to serve in solitary confinement for their own protection. One of them was put into the general population with the warden and guards well aware that was putting his life in danger. It was not a matter of if but when he would be attacked by the other prisoners. When he was attacked they beat him so badly he still is having problems with his health. Both these men are Hispanic, guess who beat the one ? A group of Hispanics. Why ? Because he was a former Border Patrol Officer by the name of Ignacio Ramos. His fellow officer also cnvicted Jose Compean.
Over the months since January there have been several more arrests of Border Patrol Officers. All of them on BS charges !
The President of this country could have stepped up to the plate just like the sorry Louisiana governor could and demanded true justice. But no neither of them care enough about right and wrong to lift one finger to help.
I don't know about yall but I think that all the people in this country legally had better start uniting as Americans. The more divided we are the easier it makes it for the corrupt government to sell us out. Make no mistake that is literaly what is happening. If we don't unite and I mean fast there won't be anything left to fight for and what is left we will not be able to fight for it because we will be living in a country controlled by the United Nations. There are many Americans who refuse to acknowledge the truth they would rather go to work come home and sit in front of the TV watching the mind numbing sitcoms, listening to the biased media (which they also refuse to believe is biased). The recent summit in Canada with our president, Mexicos "president" and Canadas Prime Minister ? this is not the first time the leaders of these three countrys have gotten together to discuss the Security and Prosperity Partnership of a North American Union. It is however the first to recieve national attention and outrage. People are slowly finding out that the concept of a One World government is not just some weird conspiracy theory. All three leaders when questioned about what they discussed laughed at us and said "what are you so upset about, we are only discussing the import of jelly beans and chocolate" All three deny they are planning on combining our three countrys into one big country.
Is this what you want ? I sure don't. America ain't perfect by a long shot but it is OUR'S damnit. It is a sovereign country one nation under God.
The government has done it's best to take our christianity away by not defending it. Now it is okay for a Muslim child in a public school (in some states) to roll out the prayer mat several times a day But Christians ? OH NO prayer in school was outlawed when I was in sixth grade.
Okay I've ranted enough for this one time and it may very well be my last because I have waited unto the very end of my post to tell you I am white and female (thus the previous mentioned fight of my ancestors (women) to be recognised as individuals and not chatell) If you don't want me here just say so and I wont be back. But I will continue to fight for right over wrong no matter where or who.
)O'Malley - Welcome! I hope you will come back often to share your thoughts on the various topics that we discuss. Our Electronic Village is open to anyone regardless of race, national origin, color or gender. I look forward to seeing you again in the future!

ReplyDeleteBabette - Asante sana for your kind words. I'm heading over to your Changing Perspectives blog right now!
ReplyDeleteGreetings all, I'm Darla and I run a mobile technology weblog at darlamack.blogs.com. What's unique and somewhat crazy about this is that there are limited few African American's, let alone females in this type of mobile industry, so that makes me the only one (that I'm aware of). It gets a bit frustrating at times trying to keep up with the 'big boys' but I've pulled my wait for almost 4 years now.
ReplyDeleteI'm married with 3 boys and they think their mom is "techy cool". Lol my 8 years old calls me that.
Darla - You are very unique ad "techy cool" ... and we are grateful to you for sharing your village voice with us whenever you have time or inclination!

ReplyDeleteI wasn't sure who to send this but I thought this was as good a place as any to post this exciting conference on Digital Humanities and African American/African Diaspora Studies! Abdul Alkalimat, Alexander Weheliye and DJ Spooky set to speak!
Call for Posters and Demonstrations
Digital Humanities and African American/African Diaspora Studies Conference
University of Maryland, College Park May 2-3, 2008
URL: http://www.mith2.umd.edu/diaspora2008
The Digital Humanities and African American/African Diaspora Studies
Conference is issuing a call for posters that highlight digital
humanities projects, tools or techniques or work in progress as they
relate to the themes of the conference. We especially encourage
submissions from independent scholars and scholars associated with
academic institutions. Posters may include a demonstration,
traditional printed poster, or a combination of both. Wireless
internet access will be available at the poster venue.
Short abstracts (250-500 words) should be submitted to Neil Fraistat
at fraistat@umd.edu by 6 p.m. on February 25, 2008. The proposals will
be reviewed by the planning committee and successful applicants will
be notified by March 10, 2008. The poster session will take place on
the afternoon of May 3, 2008.
This conference will address the increasing centrality of digitization
to the archiving of materials, as well as the growth of digital
technology in the teaching, scholarship and artistic production in the
field of African American/African Diaspora Studies. The conference is
a collaboration involving the African American/African Diaspora Area
Group of the English Department, the Maryland Institute for Technology
in the Humanities (MITH), and the School of Architecture, Planning &
Preservation, as well as other faculty and students from the College
of Arts and Humanities (ARHU) and the College of Behavioral and Social
Sciences (BSOS).
The conference, the first of its kind, will bring together
approximately 150 national and international scholars, high school and
middle school teachers, artists, students and attendees to discuss a
growing body of work that has not as yet benefited from an organized
forum that would allow practitioners to meet one another not only to
discuss on-going projects, but also to debate the theoretical,
methodological, and pedagogical issues raised by the intersection of
the fields of Digital Humanities and African American/African Diaspora
Studies. As the field of African American/African Diaspora Studies can
benefit from a thoughtful consideration of the application of new
media tools, so, too, can the field of digital humanities benefit from
a focused discussion of scholarship informed by critical race studies.
The program will begin on May 1st and 2nd with hands-on workshops,
including one sponsored by the TEI Consortium and funded by the NEH,
which will provide a practical introduction to text encoding and
another that will focus on navigating online resources in African
American and African Diaspora Studies. The workshops will be followed
by a panel showcasing work by scholars in the field of African
American/African Diaspora Studies that address and/or make use of
digital technologies and new media. The chair and the respondents will
be University of Maryland graduate students. The keynote address by
Abdul Alkalimat (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) will be
followed by a reception and the presentation of a multi-media art
installation. The last day will be taken up by panels and seminars,
one of which will be geared toward middle and high school teachers;
digital "poster" sessions, using laptops, to introduce projects by
students, faculty and independent scholars; and a closing multi-media
performance. Confirmed participants include Abdul Alkalimat, Howard
Dodson, Anna Everett, Jerome Handler, Paul D. Miller (AKA DJ Spooky),
Alexander Weheliye, and Pamela Z.

All jokes aside, it is very nice to get some relative information. BTW thanks for adding me as a friend.

ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to finally getting a chance to look around. Love the vibe and can't wait to nestle in to it. I'm Terri aka 2sweetnsaxy and I've got two jazz blogs:

2SweetNSaxy - It is nice to see you in the place. I hope you continue to enjoy our flow...
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm Eathan and I'm new to this site blog. I'm just introducing myself to everyone. I look forward to reading more.
ReplyDeleteEathan - Welcome! Your blog, I Date White is BBR #605. Out of curiousity, what is the significance of the graveyard pictured in your blog header?
ReplyDeleteHi. I am a very new blogger and I would just be interested to know if I even have a ranking!
ReplyDeleteLove your site concept.
D. Mason - You have a very unique blog. I hope to be reviewed by you at some point! Your blog is BBR #723 at the moment...
ReplyDeletepeace, Villager
You have a great forum. It will be cool to focus on economic issues as
ReplyDeletewell as immediate social needs.
Anon - Thanks for the kind words and the reminder that I need to focus more on economic empowerment messages in the days and weeks to come...
ReplyDeleteI am excited to be here, and I look forward to taking part in the important discussions that I am sure will arise from every post.
ReplyDeleteJonzee - It is a pleasure to have you sitting under our baobob tree for a small part of your day. Just jump right in to any of the discussions taking place. Today happens to be focused on the Day of Blogging For Voter Justice. I encourage you to support this online activism on either or both of your blogs if you have time or inclination...
ReplyDeleteI stumbled upon Electronic Village several times in the last month. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Wayne Hicks is behind it. Wayne, you have been doing this in one form or another for a LONG time. I can remember back to your electronic village (maybe it was a cafe) from your Prodigy days before blogs in this form existed. What was that 1995?
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work! :)
Kenya - (smile). Yes, the Electronic Village concept has been floating with me for many moons. Prodigy boards was the beginning of the concept...later I had a 2400-baud bulletin board system called Electronic Village ... next a website by that name and now a blog. I'm glad to see that some other ol' school folks are still here in cyberspace...
ReplyDeleteHi Villager,
ReplyDeleteYou know this is one of the most informative blogs out there. What you do is phenomenal!
Thanks for doing your part to unify the community!
Regina - Asante sana! I hope that you continue to find reasons to visit and share your unique village voice with us...
ReplyDeleteThis blog is informative and fun. Thanks also for introducing me to so many other bloggers. It's important that with the big media conglamerates swallowing up the small independent radio stations that we still have free speech and ideas in America. I'll be a frequent visitor and commenter. I'd be honored if you all visit with me too.
ReplyDeleteJackie - Your blog, Things According to Me has a great flow to it. I look forward to visiting it often and I recommend it to other villagers that may be ~lurking~ out there (smile)...
ReplyDeleteLovin' the village.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteBecause you've kindly linked to my blog before, I thought you might want to know that I've just posted a mug shot concerning the Jamiel Shaw, Jr. case.
The blog is Beyond90Seconds.com.
Thank you,
Mark
bloggingblackmiami.com directed me to your site and I'm glad she did. My view is simple, African Americans have been relegated to "pawns" by the mega "Wall Street" firms. We're tossed investing scraps when there is a "WAR CHEST" of information on the number of investment solutions available. Some argue that the BLACK KNIGHT is the most agile piece on the chess board. When used properly, he is aggressor and protector but ultimately his duty is to create an advantageous position. Please visit my new blog, http://www.theblackfinancialknight.blogspot.com to improve your position in this financial battle of will!
ReplyDeleteHello:
ReplyDeleteKim here from The Punkin Patch (http://thepunkin-patch.blogspot.com). I'm fairly new to blogging, so I'm still trying to find my voice. I've been checking out your blog and I really enjoy it. It is so great to see so many black bloggers out there.
Thanks for the response Kim. I loved your blog because I'm so tired of Clinton House-$%#&*%$" being so anti Obama. They need to ask one question, "Would Dr. King vote for Hillary?" Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteMark - Thank you for the update on the Jamiel Shaw suspect...
ReplyDeleteFinancial Knight - It is great to see a new blog with your economic empowerment theme in the afrosphere. I look forward to your message of 'ujamaa' over the coming weeks and months...
Kim - The Punkin Patch is a wonderful blog. Just keeping being true to yourself. Keep posting good content. Your readership will grow over time. Let me know if there is anyway that I can help you as a blogger...
Hotep Villager,
ReplyDeleteIt's me Shasa(screen name) We go way back to the days of "Prodig" when you used to hold meetings on "Da Porch". I used to post frequently along with D aka Dwight out of Philly. I was teaching in NJ at the time and "Da Village" was a great forum to share, and just kick back.
Anyway some other names from back then are Sylvester and Lisa from Long Island.
I graduated from Howard in 83 and I remember you mentioned your sister was there during that time.
Anyway, I just wanted to say you have come a looooooong way since those early days of Prodigy. I love the Blog. It is nicely done and with a wealth of info.
BTW I'm in Columbus,OH.
I often listen to you in the NPR "Bloggers Roundtable" which confirmed that it was you in the village. Congrats to you and I look forward to reading, learning and contributing.
Peace, blessings, and Continued Success.
shasa
Shasa - It truly is a small world. I still hear from some of Da Porch folks on Prodigy such as Carla Nix, Sy Holmes and Tito Johnson. You are correct that i have worked to continue to vibe of Da Porch with this blog and my website.
ReplyDeleteI don't get to Columbus OH very much, but, I hope that you will share your village voice here on this blog whenever you have time or inclination...
Ah, I am rather late but here nontheless. Blame African time and transportation.
ReplyDeleteI am from another village in cyber space, simply called The Village. I hope I can get along with the villagers around here since I haven't been too popular in other enclaves where villagers are not understood. The villagers here sound cool so far.
I hope we can maintain village values of community, understanding and upholding our humanity.
Grata - You're never too late ... always right on time! I look forward to hearing your village voice over the coming weeks and months. Just step in and let 'er rip. We enjoy the dialogue...
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to add my 2 cents to the introduction pot. I have enjoyed reading your blog.
ReplyDeletehttp://blacksapience.blogspot.com
Black Seagoat - I appreciate your kind words. Hopefully, we can keep it going into the future. As you know, being a blogger ain't easy!
ReplyDeleteI am the teacher of personal protection and the peace loving warrior of the tribe known as the Black Man With A Gun. I hope I can help the Diaspora some day. I haven’t been well received so far, but I might have just been too early for prime time. Kenn Blanchard
ReplyDeleteWHAZZUP, EV;
ReplyDeleteDiscovered your place in the shade by way of The URBAN BLOGGER. This is truly a good place to be.
My name is CCGroovy. CRAZY..COOL...GROOVY!!! is my blogtitle and the site is http://www.ccgroovy.blogspot.com.

Thank you very much. ;)
ReplyDeleteKenn
CCC - Welcome to our village. I hope you enjoy the flow. One of my favorite songs from back in the day was CrazySexyCool or something of that nature. I need to look it up...
ReplyDeletepeace, Villager
Hi Villager,
ReplyDeleteI just found the site today and am very impressed so far! I am new to the world of blogging and actually engage in this wonderful outlet secondary to my weekly online pod cast postings on my website www.cswplayersclub.com. CSW stands for "Christian Single Woman" and is in reference to my book, "The Christian Single Woman's Guide to Being a Player God's Way".
I have been inspired by your site and I look forward to networking with all how relax in the village
Janice - Thank you for the kind words. I hope that we give you positive reasons to come back and visit with us often. Please share your village voice on any post you read. In the meantime, I will head over and check out your new blog as well...
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful blog. Along with this comment I sending positive vibes and strenght so that you, I and other conscious bloggers can continue to write, build, heal and move foward as a people.
ReplyDeleteDulce - I truly appreciate your kind words about this blog. I join you in wishing that our blogs can bring uplifting information to our blog readers...
ReplyDeleteHi. Come visit my new blog which I began early this month. It tackles racism on many fronts but from a unique perspective. I speak of my experiences as a black adoptive mother, child protective services social worker and later, a clinical therapist. I analyze news and political events, often from a mental health perspective.
ReplyDeleteI'm good too - in my May 6th post, I predicted that Hillary Clinton was staying in the race despite the mathematical improbability because secretly she knew, consciously or not, that there are men who run the globe who want to take him out.
I'd greatly appreciate you adding it to your blog roll if you like it - and I'm pretty sure most of you will. Thanks, Kit
http://keepittrill.blogspot.com/
Kit - I've added your blog to my Blogs w/ Soul blogroll. I look forward to seeing the evolution of your blog over the coming weeks and months...
ReplyDeleteAs an aside, your blog is BBR #1231 at the moment...
Thanks for the add, Villager. Do you have any other suggestions on how I can increase my readership? I have a nice range of topics on my blog that many people, from the political to parents struggling with issues their kids throw at them, will find fascinating. Thanks, Kit.
ReplyDeletehttp://keepittrill.blogspot.com/
Kit - The key is to provide compelling content for your blog readers. I did share some blog-marketing tips earlier this year...
ReplyDeleteI'm new to the blogosphere and I would like advice on promoting my blog or getting on the list of black bloggers.
ReplyDeletehttp://invintage.blogspot.com/
Bella - Your blog is now included on the Black Blog Rankings. The new BBR will be posted on July 1st. In the meantime, here are some blogging tips for your consideration...
ReplyDeleteLol, let me show some LOVE too than.
ReplyDeleteProps were props are due you run a tight ship here and I enjoy coming through.
CLNMike - Asante sana! While I have you here ... what does "CLN" stand for?
ReplyDeleteAs you know, Villager...I am one of your biggest fans! I love what you do here at the Village...
ReplyDeleteI have changed my url...I am now at [http://themarvalusview.com] for all those unaware...same stuff, different name and look!
Thank you for being you!
I've been part of "blogger" for almost a couple of months - my second blog. Since then, I've been a sometime lurcher, a few times commenter and I like the vibe of Electronic village - kind of reminds me of my heritage.
ReplyDeleteCln is short for Colin, my last name.
ReplyDeleteMarvalus & AAW - I truly appreciate your kind words and support. I anticipate that you will both be pleased with your movement on the Black Blog Rankings that are coming out tomorrow morning...
ReplyDeleteVillager, you do make it really comfortable over here. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteVanessa - Asante sana! There are a number of things that I hope happen as we continue to evolve. As you know, it is difficult to keep a blog flowing ... so I'm grateful to you and others that share your village voice here on my blog!
ReplyDeleteVillager,
ReplyDeleteWe are fairly new to the blogosphere and just found you. You are doing great work. Pleas check us out at http://invisibleblog.com. Thanks!
Keith - Asante sana for the kind words. Your blog is BBR #834...
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Ryan from the VoteMeCool 2008 blog.
Your site is Unique and so COOOOL!
I've never come across a site like this on the 'Net.
What grabbed my attention was the Unity your blog encourages.
Sadly there doesn't appear to be enough of it within the Urban Blogosphere.
Of course I subscribed immediately.
You can best believe that your going to be seeing more of me here at the "Village".
I know your busy however I'm extending the invitation for you to visit my blog @ http://votemecool.blogspot.com
(You can also Google me using just my Domain: VoteMeCool 2008).
Once again your concept for this site was GENIUS!
United We Stand, Divided We Fall
God Bless
One more thing (Sorry)
ReplyDeleteHow do I go about requesting that VoteMeCool 2008 be reviewed for the Black Blog Ranking list?
What's the protocol on that?
If its just a matter of asking, then please consider this my official request for consideration.
Also anyone else who reads this comment who'd like to stop by, come on over.
If you'd like me to visit your site, then ping me or something.
I won't bite:)
Thanks
Ryan
Ryan - It is a pleasure to welcome you to our electronic village! I visited your blog this morning. I may be a little bit over your target 18-30 audience (smile). However, I have added your blog to the power rankings. You are now BBR #406...
ReplyDeleteSaw your "Top Ten Black Blogs" list over at Jack & Jill Politics, a site that is one of my daily "must see what these Negroes are up to now" sites.
ReplyDeleteI'm kinda new to this - my blog is Brown Man Thinking Hard over on the Blogger platform (I can type this hyperlink by hand, though, so I must have learned something in the last two months).
Straight politics, straight Obama, hopefully thought provoking, certainly time consuming - but I LOVE that damn blog!
Slowly getting to see the rest of the blogosphere now that I have a better handle on what it takes to write a meaningful post (some of the time).
Brown Man - Being able to type those hyperlinks by hand gives you a major advantage as you work to market your blog in the comments area of other blogs.
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, I just checked ... your blog is now BBR #1100...
Just Beautiful! Hello everyone. My name is Jacqueline. My husband and I are holding up the business folks in Atlanta with our classy publication, People You Need to Know. :-)
ReplyDeletePeople - I will look for your publication later this month when I'm in Atlanta for the Blogging While Brown conference. Have you considered creating a blog to go along with your magazine?
ReplyDeleteHi my name is also Keith...and I have a blog I began on New Years eve called "Keith's Space"...I talk
ReplyDeleteabout the topical and the personal
and whatever is in my head at the time. I am honored to find this page. I hope that I can be apart of the on going conversations on this blog also.
So glad I found you! What a wonderful way to connect African American bloggers.
ReplyDeletePersistence - I'm heading over to visit your blog. You've been added to the rankings that I informally maintain. You are now BBR #1040...
ReplyDeleteKeith's Space - Your blog is also on the rankings. You are now BBR #974...
Found you on Facebook. This seems like a really great place. I've been searching for the past couple months for a place to call "home" or at least a resource as I'm relatively new to blogging and definitely blogging while black.
ReplyDeleteI'd love you to include my site somewhere in your listings. And I'm adding you to my blogroll right now.
Peace,
E.

My "Grammy" started a blog for me when I was 6 months old and she is my voice until I am old enough to talk for myself. My blogspot is a place where I can share my growth and life journey with others, learn about new things, and just have fun. It is a family-friendly, child-oriented, dairy-journal type blog.
I am already listed in 60+ blog communites/ directories and would like to be a part of the Electronic Village. You recently added my Pop-Pop to your village (Keith's Space BBR #974) and I would like to be added too (smile)!
Thank you,

Villager,
ReplyDeleteI was reviewing African-American blogs and came upon yours - very nice. My name is Herb and I run BlackBottom.com - an African-American video sharing and social networking site. We also host videos for various blogging and independent sites, as well. Let's chat sometime.
I've just recently come across your site. I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed. I've recently taken this blogging thing seriously, by opening a Blogger account. I'm happy that I came across your site because it shows me that there is a voice for blacks in the blog world.
ReplyDeleteHey Villager!
ReplyDeleteIntroduced to your site on one of my favorite blogs, The Field Negro, and I'm loving EV. Thanks for a great place to revitalize.
My blog? Black American Progressive. Link? http://peoplepowerforchange.blogspot.com/

ReplyDeleteRippa - I visited your blog today. You have a powerful writing style. I see big things for you and your blog over the coming weeks and months. Shyt, I added you as a village warrior in my sidebar today!
ReplyDeleteYour blog is BBR #975...
Greetings...followed you over from from the live stream of the BWBC. Lots of great information from the panelists. Since I've started my blog two years ago I don't roam the blogosphere as much as I did when I was "blogging for pleasure," so to speak, so it was a good opportunity to see who else is out there "educating" the masses. Anyhow, added you and a few others from the conference to the rss feed so I'll be poppin' in every now and then.

ReplyDeleteI just noticed an incoming link from your blog to mine and I couldn't see which post had been linked to my little space on the web, but I'm glad to see there was some type of connection.
I've never seen the EV online and it looks like I'll be traveling again to your village. What an awesome community it appears to be.
For the rest of the villagers my website is www.adrienne-is.com and my blog can be found at www.adrienne-is.com/blog. A little about myself...
I'm heading to Ethiopia, London and Dubai this fall. If you've been by chance drop some thoughts!

Hello, good folks. One Word: Jamaica. I have worked firsthand with Asafa Powell and the MVP Track Club, many of whom racked up gold medals in this Olympic, and I have written of some of the incredible stories of these Jamaican athletes who stayed home to get the best training. We can learn here.
ReplyDeleteI touch on a few Olympic highlights and my work with the team in my most recent posts and kindly invite your visit.
