"David:
Interesting ideas. I have a couple of thoughts.
AOL has been doing a marketing campaign where they sponsor artist and the work they produce becomes kind of a draw for people to use AOL's…"

"I think Toby Proctors views on this are very realistic, I also think any initiative to circulate or make real art (personal objects) is good. I would like to point out that in any society no matter how poor or primitive there is always an art object…"

New Fellow's project - please share your views! www.thismancan.com
Hi all, Is it true that men who lack some of the skills that are expected of them tend to be less engaged in their families and society? I think so! I am experimenting with a new venture which aims to give men the confidence to step forward in any situation - at work, at rest or at play. The idea is to provide fun, group classes to teach men the skills they are expected to know, but no-one ever taught them. This can be anything from basic DIY to cooking a romantic meal to dressing for…See More

Hi all, I am experimenting with a new venture which aims to give men the confidence to step forward in any situation - at work, at rest or at play. The idea is to provide fun, group-based classes which can be booked via our website: http://www.thismancan.com I would love some feedback on the concept and the site - what do you like and not like? Could you, or an enterprise that you know, teach any of the classes? If you like what we're doing, please spread…See More

Many thanks for your thoughts - sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I have to say that you lost me at 'contribution range definition' - sounds like you have some expertise that could be very helpful.

"Hi David,
What is wrong with the various networks out there now? Is it a lack of physical information (development strain) or a lack of ability to moderate the activity? I see BVSC and others being instrumental in voluntary placement and…"

A new social network for helpful social impact? Can you help us?
Hi all,Jon Rainford and I are looking at the potential for a new broad-reach social network with the aim of increasing community cohesion and participation (skilled volunteering). We believe:•That everyone has a unique skillset that they could use for social good•…and by doing so, people will feel better about themselves and the community they live in•…and civic organisations get the help they need for love not money•…making them stronger and more resilient to today’s pressures…so in a small…See More

Big Society
A conversation about how people are interpreting the concept of Big Society and does it need tightening as Matthew Taylor suggests, or might a 'baggy' concept be a strength and help more people get involved?
David Boon replied to Jon Rainford's discussion 'Making social enterprise accessible' in the group Social Entrepreneurs Network
"Hi Jon,
I agree that there is a need - although my angle would to make it somewhat 'local' - to me there is a space for a social network focused on community - just as we have Facebook for friends and LinkedIn for work - I…"
