After the hiatus, thank goodness it hasn't been a whole year (cutting it close though), I am back to advocate here on this blog again. We'll see how it goes this time around- I guess you could say I prefer real life to the online world, and while that is still 100% true, there is a way to leverage this site to work towards the goals I initially set out with. To make this a plausible way to advocate in the Triad.
Unfortunately, I fall into the category of "blogger" with this site. That is ultimately not my goal. The world wide web is being inundated with people chronicling their lives, their kids lives, their love for something, their hate for something, celebrities, politics, etc. My goal here is more humanitarian, the goal is to turn this into an organization that reaches the general public- to educate on design and encourage the change that we need to see in our infrastructure around the Triad. This is the first generation of a model for an organization that, once it has proven it works, can be formed in other cities that are in need of an architecture advocate.
It's a tough challenge and a huge goal- it can only be accomplished with your help. I need you, my dear Triad, to be interested and to take the ideas and challenges presented on this site home with you, to work with you, everywhere you go. I want this to be an invitation to discuss architecture around the Triad and to generate even bigger ideas through to discussions!
