I'll go first - I'm Duncan and I built the site with my wife Jane simply because there wasn't anything like this online at the time.
Come on, don't be shy, say hello to everyone :D

HI, my name is Sally.
It's great that you set up this site. I have already found out things out that may have taken lot longer to come across.
It is important that this kind of communication is taking place, and I believe that this 'portal' will be called upon to provide a wealth of knowledge and play an important part in the understanding of related issues that will be faced in the future.
I am glad to be a pert of it.
As for my expertise, I am just beginning to understand the power of the internet and its applications, in relation to having what Dan Gilmour describes in his book WE THE MEDIA: GRASSROOTS JOURNALISM 'as the global conversation that is taking place now. '
I will talk more of that later.
Lets keep on communicating in ways that benefit not just the 'converted' but 'the unconverted'.
Thank you.

Hello Sally, welcome to ecolocal!
It's great that you mentioned 'We the media', I read parts of it ages ago and always meant to read it properly - consider me reminded. Talking of the power of the internet, we've certainly experienced that here. From time to time certain articles bring in a lot of new users to the site and it's interesting to see how comments on this site propgate around the web, sometimes over a relatively long period of time, too.
And as for "communicating in ways that benefit the unconverted", well that might just end up co-opted as the unoffical logo of this site too - it's my new favourite phrase :D

Hello!
Nice meeting you all! Shinningstar is my name. As I walked in an endless road of knowledge, as I gazed to the unreachable sky of intellect, there's only one thing that is suited in my unsatisfied mind to discover the undiscovered. And I'm very proud of my simple invention. Using scraps material, recycled it and make it a new product. It's one way of helping the environment. Lets have fun in this forum.
