Welcome to "Ashland Resource Center!"

THE POWER & SIGNIFICANCE OF COMMUNICATIONS NETWORKING!

Ashland Resource Center

Your local resource center for sharing events, projects, information and media !


The "Ashland Resource Center" has invited you and other key people, organizations and businesses in the local community to become members at no cost to you except a little time to learn how to set-up your "MyPage" profile. (Slideshow: Recently Added Photos).

This is an online forum and portal for people to communicate and exchange ideas and build projects locally. This social network has actual face-to-face gatherings in addition to the on-line network. The purpose of the resource center is the sharing of information about activities in our area and keeping a comprehensive inventory of local resources, people, projects, businesses and organizations.

Additionally we run a small news/media organization that emphasizes sustainability and community values featuring user-generated content (e.g., blogs, videos, photos, music, events) selected from the Internet. This local resource center is a model for other communities and we're planning to launch other resource centers regionally and globally.

Southern Oregon & Northern California Communities Served:

Your Resource Center:

Our local, regional or global resource center is simple, elegant and easy to use even if you do not have computer skills. So if you're willing to take 30 minutes, learn the "FAQ's & Tutorial", you'll have years of enjoyment connecting with the most dynamic and interesting people on the planet right here in your local community.

Here's what you can do on this portal and social media network.
  • Share your favorite resources, information, photos, music and video with a growing community of friends and associates.
  • Submit your local event calendar listing and promote your event absolutely free.
  • Contribute interesting, newsworthy and informative blogs.
  • Invite your personal or organizational network to become members and create their own "MyPage" for their products, services or businesses at no charge.
  • Participate in resource groups and discussions.

Through these simple actions you become an active participant in this local community as part of the Cascadian Resource Center regional network of resource centers and demonstrate the power and significance of communications networking.

Dear Friends & Members,

The Ashland Resource Center is enjoying steady growth from its members having posted numerous photos, songs, videos, discussions, events and blog posts. If you're not already a member, sign up today!

Along with many visionaries spanning four decades we have worked diligently to create a local, regional and global resource center platform to facilitate the conscious emergence of an enlightened planetary culture.

After many starts and stops over the years, finally the technology, resources and team are organized to accomplish such a grandiose vision. With several powerful web platforms integrated together, the capacity to communicate, network and manage information about people, projects, programs, media, organizations and businesses exists like never before.

With a vast network of resource people worldwide already on the path towards raising consciousness, the time is now to combine Internet technology with the people who are capable of making a difference and doing/being the greatest good.

Respectfully yours,

Profile Information

Do you live in Ashland or the southern Oregon area? If yes, then what are you seeking?
Networking & Connecting, Making New Friends, Sharing Resources & Information, Finding & Posting Events
What brought you Southern Oregon and Ashland area?
Originally founded with offices and staff on Oak street across from the Historic Armory in 1998 by the Institute for Communications Resources, or ICR. Then the Ashland Resource Center was founded as a local project and business development resource center.

Now, as part of ICR's global and regional resource center network, the Ashland Resource Center is reemerging from the cocoon as the first of many local resource centers to come over the next few years.

After leaving Maui I moved to Ashland from Maui and lived on Mountain and Beach St. for several years before taking a two-year hiatus from life as I'd known it. That's a whole other story.

Now, I'm back in the saddle of southern Oregon building new paradigm companies and this social network for the community.
What products, services, information or resources would you like to share, offer, give, sell, or exchange locally or regionally?
Created as a community service and experiment in social and business networking, the Ashland Resource Center is free for individuals, organizations and businesses in the local community. Our only revenue stream is paid monthly sponsorships for each of the twenty networking groups and selected banner advertising on the home page. Members may voluntarily donate to support the local resource center.
Please describe any projects or businesses you'd like to develop locally or regionally, if any?
Through Global Business Development Services, we've developed a platform for the emergence of a network of local and regional resource centers in localities and communities worldwide along with many other developments in green technology, clean and renewable energy, conscious media and education.
What are your favorite books, films or music that you'd like to share with others?
These are noted throughout the Ashland Resource Center as one of the primary purposes of the network, to share media that inspires and uplifts you. Welcome to your local resource center for sharing events, projects, information and media.

Welcome to the Ashland Resource Center,


You can utilize this resource center as it grows to share information about yourself and your projects, business or organization. This provides a vital inventory of who's doing what so we can better connect and prosper each other. This resource center is akin to our own local community version of FaceBook/MySpace with the ability to meet and greet face-to-face as well.

Your "MyPage"

You can fill out your "MyPage" with more information and resources. In the "text" box you can build a webpage, add a description, format text, upload photos, embed video, etc. This "MyPage" becomes your own social network "portal" with full capabilities. You can "Edit" features on your "MyPage," move the boxes around by selecting and dragging the headers to where you want them on the page. You can even change your theme and appearance.

In the "RSS" box you can add any RSS feed. You can upload a profile photo or logo under "MySettings" so we can feature your page. For new member instructions and tutorial go to: FAQ's & Tutorial

Invite New & Old "Friends"

Use this full-service social media network to share yourself with the local community by inviting both new and old friends under "Members" to become your "friend." This is how this resource center grows strong and we are kept informed locally about events and activities of vital interest.

May all your creative projects and endeavors be blessed with abundance.

Namaste,
-Johnny & Linda, CO-ORGANIZERS

Thank you, my Bro, for your lovely message! Wow, so much change on this end. On the verge of something this morning. Can feel it! Will be going into a Reading-Entrainment with a girlfriend in the UK in an hour -- and I just know something is up! Some change afoot re my business/contribution/internet set-up structure.

You are all (you, Linda and Savana) on my mind a lot.

Have a lovely afternoon!

Blessings, Grace and Deepest Love to all, my Heart Family xoxox

Lovely to be here! Loved spending time with you and Linda at your place last weekend. Has been a big week, since being back. A flood of clients, plus reconnecting with loved ones and all the usual admin stuff. I hold close to my Heart the platform established in Ashland, and the reconnections across time and space made. I feel most blessed -- and excited, too, about our co-creations for 2010.

Had fun last night registering with flock.com, delicious, etc. Trying to work out how to line up those RSS feeds, as you showed Savana and I that day! Touch and go at this stage, but definitely a part of the movement forward and connecting up the grid.

Please let Linda know that I will be in touch with her soon to schedule her Reading.

Love you two lots, and looking forward to mapping out 2010!

Blessings! Grace! Joy! Fatimaxxx

P.S. the short intro video on the Homepage is terrific!

John,
I can't thank you enough for the informational (and fun) class that you provided to me and other members of the ARC. I learned so much and it was very helpful in creating our Mini-web page for Omega House. I look forward to working with you in the near future to take full advantage of this wonderful local networking system.

Hi Linda I have several decent pix on Facebook. I cannot afford nor do I need professional pics at this time. I am just trying to keep my house in good shape, eat and maybe have a few bucks for some fun. Thanks and best of luck to you.
