Survey

2009-11-20T00:37:51Z

Hi Chris,
You can probably tell I didn't sleep very well last night....one more
thought. What about adding an online survey to draw people into the
space and help to find common topics of interest. We could use the 3
question structure of that video you found with a survey monkey linked
from Talking Point. What were those questions again?

Get organised

2009-11-20T00:33:16Z

Hi Chris,
This part of the project seems to be a project in itself. While the
way we have it set up will allow people to begin a topic and for those
topics to be listed well and for then to develop the description and
the basic jobs with others and then to develop them by using the
suggestions in the priority post, the space of course does not do

Poster

2009-11-20T00:26:08Z

Hi Chris,
I was thinking that we need to develop a generic black and white A6
(1/4 of A4) Flyer that provides a pitch for the space and some of the
things that can be organised in it with a blank for a few local
topical events that can be filled in by any street. Peopl could use
this flyer to letter box drop or as a poster or as just a face to face

Name for online space

2009-11-20T00:16:47Z

Hi Chris,
We don't have something to call this online space. I was thinking last
night about this and I thought of calling the whole thing the
Co-operator but then another thought came to me. It might seem a
little stange at first but what about calling the whole thing simply
'VILLAGE'. It is a nicer word than the Co-operator and has the right

Resources List

2009-11-20T00:05:07Z

Hi Chris,
We also need a place for a resource list. So that resources like
Freecycle and the hall at the Neighbourhood centre and the computers
at the library and the toy library can be advertised. This could be a
priority post in the events page because they would largely be
stagnant services that could just remain there.

FW: WHY HOUSING IS UNAFFORDABLE - [NATIONAL NEWS 9589 - 2009, 17 NOVEMBER]

2009-11-17T00:24:06Z

In order to address the ownership model we might need to spend more time debating this view. Over a decade ago when I looked into the land tax idea I realised that Henry George did NOT rest on land tax, but saw it as a partial response to a problem that was rooted in a deep injustice. This summary below is timely.

For the last 6 weeks or so, Sara Ferguson and Peter Cronau of ABC's 4 Corners, have been working in the Nepean region on a documentary on homelessness. They have traced in-depth the day-to-day experiences of families and individuals experiencing homelessness in our region, and documented the beginnings of Project 40 Blue Mountains, the new supportive housing model we are establishing which involves all local homelessness agencies.

FW: A New Page?

2009-08-27T00:10:01Z

Hi Keith,
The NTW and the Co-operator addresses might be useful in promoting your interests once we start to promote those two forums, but the Hope Street forum is for a very local audience (residents and near neighbours of Hope Street Blaxland.

When I responded to your Community Builders plea for help it was my idea for you to think about whether you could do in Armidale what I was doing for Hope Street - set up your own local forum with an events calendar that would be of interest beyond your own interest group. As well as providing this public service, the spin-off for your own group would be that you might be able to reach a bigger audience in and around Armidale - that was what you said in Community Builders was your objective.

Little space needed, water and nutrient efficiency. They are selling

2009-08-22T01:32:48Z

Hi Alex,
The opening page gives a sales pitch but at the end of it people have to try to work out what to do - they have to realise they should go to the index and then decide from that. I think we need to lead them from the sales pitch to the index and we need to simplify the index and create a more logical order.

Hi Alex,
I've been lookng at the process for modern busy neighbours to be able to find each others interests - something to replace the old relaxed over the back fence, drop around for a cuppa etc ways that people used to find out about each other.

The attached papers try to identify something that gets a bit more specific about stimulating and translating an initial personal interest into an outreach and connection with neighbours - some way to bring people to the forum here people might discover more about other interests in their neighbourhood. You will also find an address for a Hope Street googlegroup in the draft poster.
