about film your issue

http://www.filmyourissue.com/index.shtml

It's not empty rhetoric to say we want to know what you care about. We're interested, and we have created a platform so that millions of people are listening, watching and voting.

Think of it as the YouTube of issues and causes.

Show us your issue – any issue. Make it personal, real. What matters to YOU. Not a boring (if well-intentioned) Public Service Announcement that tells us politely to vote or stop smoking or eat healthy.

How to better welcome new members and build up the community

Hi Wayne: I just want to say that I wish we would do much better in terms of welcoming new members and introducing them to GLK. I think they should be requested to provide picture and a short bio and those should be shared via a blog (of course!) or a list with the new (and older) members.
I think this is a very important tool to build a community.
The information above I have no way to check.
Can we talk about that as well next week?
Take care
