First post

Welcome to our blog! The first post - how exciting!

The website for lowcarboneconomy.com is still in beta testing, but it's working really well and starting to look great too. In the meantime, if you add your email address on this page: www.lowcarboneconomy.com we'll keep you updated via our mailing list.

Whilst we get the website ready for general release, we've been busy creating some social sites to start helping to spread the word.

So far, we have:

Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lowcarboneconomy/
Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=7008982165
Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=5768564643
Delicious: http://del.icio.us/lowcarboneconomy.com

And some public pages from our Google Reader:

Starred: http://www.google.com/reader/starred
All: http://www.google.com/reader/All
More: we have separated the feeds into categories like: Buildings, Climate Change, Companies, Environment, Ethical, Green and Eco, Low Carbon, Oil and fossil fuels, Renewables, Transport, Waste and Recycling, etc. If you would like me to post the public pages for these, just let me know and I'll put the URL's up.

A lot of these pages have RSS feeds too, so please add them to your RSS aggregator (like Google Reader etc) to keep track of what we see from day to day. Delicious is particularly useful as we post things we think are important and want to be able to find again later.

If you use del.icio.us (and you should - it's great), please add us to your network and post any links to us that you think we should look at: just add the 'for:lowcarboneconomy.com' tag.

OK - that's it for now, hopefully I'll be able to post again soon to say our site is available.

David
