I only understand this in concept, but it sounds like it could be useful in outreach beyond the local cohousing shell to invite a broader community of interest to participate in mutual interest endeavors, whether it's for cutting taxes, policing wild animals, or a NIMBY political campaign.I believe we all have multiple communities of differing interests. How many list-serv's can you tolerate? ? TOM LOFFT LIBERTY VILLAGE, MD Today's Topics: From: Chris Rowe <chr [at] rowe.com> Has anyone looked at nextdoor.com as a possible tool for cohousing communities? They currently have a minimum household size of 50 for a "neighborhood" but it seems like something that could be a good option if they allowed smaller communities to us it. ------------------------------ Message: 2 From: Ann Zabaldo <zabaldo [at] earthlink.net> Hello all - This is one of those inventive ideas that I suggest for people seeking community where they live RIGHT NOW. One of my friends has gotten involved in nextdoor.com. I was fixin? to write about it in the Mid Atlantic Cohousing newsletter but this is a great opportunity to start a thread. As I understand nextdoor.com, this software puts you in touch w/ neighbors near you seeking connection. I think this is very cool. Whatever increases connection among neighbors is terrific. What happens after the connections are made and the 50 homes identified becomes dependent on those who are in the group. This has some of the flavor of The Villages or Meetup. Chris ? how do you see this being used to create cohousing?
