Greetings El Salvador delegation members and others,
Yes, indeed, you have happened upon the "official" fair-trade coffee blog.Posted by joelrf at February 16, 2004 12:40 AMAllow me to take this time to introduce you all to the world of blogging. As I mentioned to the Equal Exchange delegates in San Salvador, a blog, or web log, is a dynamic web page. As a member of the community it is pertinent that you post information every now and then. Without the support of you, your stories and actions this will be a very boring page.
I envision this space to be a center to which we can come and post our own articles, links to other articles and any information pertaining to the work of teaching fair-trade.
I know blogging is new to many of you. To begin with, you can click on the link just below each entry labeled "comment." In this dialogue box you can comment on the entry without having to sign up for an account. Invitations for the account will be coming shortly, once I have e-mail contacts of members who traveled to El Salvador.
Any photos you want to post, please e-mail them to me and I resize them to download and fit on our blog.
Any articles you want to post, please e-mail the text to me or the link to text and I will post them for now.
I look forward to staying in touch with you all as well spread the word about fair-trade coffee.
as i learn more about how to blogin, i will update the information in this post.
