I am truly looking forward to collaborating with many of you here! I've already read some profiles and would like to extend an invitation to Orion Kriegman to educate me ALL about Global Social Movements (and yes I have downloaded your paper "Dawn of the Cosmopolitan: The Hope of a Global Citizens Movement") Well done! I have relocated to Mountain View, near the HQ of Google, to be both in the heart of innovation and startups in Silicon Valley-- as well as the valuable resources and people at Stanford -in particular The Center for Social Innovation. ABOUT .ME! Air Force offspring, world traveled, lived in Tunisia, Switzerland and Austria. BBA in International Business and Master of Public Affairs from the Univ. of Texas at Austin. Grew up speaking French at home enjoying the fine cuisine of Franco-Swiss-American parents who instilled the joie de vivre which lives on today. Focus on Social Networking and it's evolution; hobbies include electric cars and all renewable energy resources! My startup concept is the "Evolution of Social Networking" GlobalCitizen.me- Global Citizen Knowledge and Social Movements The concept shares the philosophical and practical vision of the "Global Citizen's Movement" (Great description at Wikipedia--Read it...) My domain is "GlobalCitizen.me" (.me is a brand new extension supported by GoDaddy.com.) ...e.g. "What can I do for the World?" My Email address is: GlobalCitizen@me.com I am developing this Social Network as an advanced business model to grow and become self-sustaining within 6 months time. Still in R&D Phase. Write me and indicate your level of interest and I will provide the link to view a presentation and an Executive Summary. Thanks for reading about my project!
