The EUCU.NET Weblog
Publishing a blog for EUCU.NET has many reasons. First of all we want an easy way of getting your feedback and your ideas. The blog is the place to inform, get informed, raise topics and bring in new thoughts.
Second a blog is a very convenient way of tracing new activities without being forced to check our website every day. Providing a RSS-feed saves us from this daily routine and sends recent information directly to the web browsers, feed-aggregators or online readers of your choice.
All contributors shall try to keep their posts clear, simple and most of all good readable. EUCU.NET is an international project and we communicate in english. Please keep the inhibition threshold low (is this english… LEO is continuously running on my computer!) - the weblog is a rather casual platform and nobody will focus on english syntax, grammar or orthography.
The Mental Layout
The EUCU.NET blog is something like the preamplifier board of the EUCU.NET community platform. Since we all hold out for the official launch of the community platform in february the blog will ease waiting a little bit.
What you will find on the blog is up-to-date information on various topics related to EUCU.NET and the idea of Children’s Universities. We will try to link the information as good as possible with other resources in the net so you get more out of the articles.
The weblog shall also be a place of inspiration and stimulation. Please keep this in mind when you write a comment or propose a new topic.
“Small opportunities are often the beginning of great projects.
(loose translation after Demosthenes)
