JustMeans Just Got Better

I was involved with some very early-stage development of the site JustMeans.com, back when it was a fantastic idea (social networking for social entrepreneurs) with a poor platform (a clunky and buggy website). 

Just now, however, I learned that Founder Martin Smith spent the past three months in India working directly with the site developers to move it to an open-source design, and now it's so much better.

JustMeans provides networks, jobs, and news to thousands of socially-minded young people, while creating a unique forum that connects corporations and individuals who are passionate about finding solutions to today's problems.

If you haven't checked out JustMeans yet (or even if you have), definitely take a look: http://www.justmeans.com/

Technical difficulties

Apologies, I allowed my domain registration and forwarding to lapse - while at the same time making some big changes in my life/career.  I'm back on the blog now though, with plenty of news and analysis in the pipeline.

On the personal front, I'm now working closely with Andrew Savitz, author of The Triple Bottom Line and formerly of PriceWaterhouse (he founded PWC's sustainability practice).  Together, we're consulting via Sustainable Business Strategies, working with large businesses and other organizations to develop triple-bottom-line strategies, sustainability programs, and GRI reporting. 

In the fall, I'll be heading to Europe to study sustainability at the doctoral level - but more about that as the semester approaches.
