Project Flow Tracker

Connect blogsites about local food systems with LFS. Lots of independent ning, local blogging groups, google groups, etc. are forming out there, and two examples follow that are efforts of LFS subscribers and are about the same thing in the same place but different groups of people. Can LFS be a conduit that connects them easily, so that if someone (LFS subscriber, perhaps even anyone) blogs one group about a particular subject it creates a message to another group elsewhere, either within LFS or on another site, that has a common interest? Must be done carefully so that it really is making the connection logically and according to content rather than a blitz of information about everything to everyone.

subject columbus food update by kareng

hi there. I'm gearing up to do some more writing for localfoodcolumbus.wordpress.com Do any of you have any subjects you would like to hear more about. I'm doing research this week on tempeh making and food processing facilities. The website is coming along. I think we're getting a lot of hits. .... I've also posted a couple questions on the localfoodsystems.org concerning food bank farms and factory chicken farms. This site goes to a lot of dept of Ag people (both gov and Ohio State Univ) for discussion in their research papers. please check both out let me know if you appreciate this info. sincerely kareng
