Spammy new members

Hello fellow transhumanists, I have noticed in the past few days that several new members have joined that didn't seem to fit the typical transhumanist profile (i.e. we don't often wear tiaras or operate Russian bride services). I don't want to inflame anyone by saying this as I realize that we all come from different backgrounds and demographics. However, my bullshit detector went on high alert lately when numerous solicitous comments were being made to members and hence the exalted Transumani… Continue

Anyone want to be an admin on this site?

Hi Everyone,
Due to a flurry of other activities, I am unable to put as much time as I would like into developing this site and would like to add a couple of admins to the site to keep things improving. Admins can do anything on the network other than delete it. It would be great to have someone with PHP/HTML/CSS skills to add pages and the like. This network has a lot of flexibilty for appearance and features so some design skills would also be useful. If you wish to be an admin, PM me or l… Continue

So quiet around here...

Well, I'm excited that we have over 200 members now...but it's never been quieter. Where has the conversation gone? Facebook? other forums? summer holidays? Hopefully we can get into some gritty topics soon. I'm as guilty as anyone for my ennui.

Woops

I accidentally deleted all the music files while shuffling things around...sorry. In the interest of faster loading times for the front page I removed the music app (which can't exist on member pages without being on the front page) and the member thumbnails. You can still access the members via the 'member' tab at the top of the page and if you want to share music on your profile page you can add a music widget into your text box. If you need help with this, just send me a message.

Yeah, pretty neet, eh? I had the same one as well as the black and orange headed one. This is a 3D model someone made of it. Had to grab him!

Small point: for the front page polls, I would recommend Vizu.com over PollDaddy.com. Nice background on this page btw.

Thanks for setting this up Christopher. I went ahead and added a "Network for Ethics and Emerging Technologies" (NEETniks.ning.com) which y'all are welcome in. As to the Family Sangha, a Buddhist parenting network would also be great.

Yeah sure, feel free to display the Accelerating Future feed.

Okay, so... another transhumanist network. Anyone want to give a talk at the University of Arizona next year on a transhumanist related topic? We'd probably love to have you. Also, if you want to visit Tucson and meet up with fellow transhumanist, let us know. www.hplusclub.com

for example you should be able to define yourself as belonging to the different subgroups of transhumanism, i.e. singularitarianism, extropiansim etc.

I just wonder, can you add as many fields as you want and use tagging on Ning? it would really be nice to have a soultion where you could add as many fields as you want specifing them as either free for text, for tagging/grouping or with defined alternatives. Then you could get really turn out to be useful, and providing something different than simply, avatars, friends, blogs and forums, because that already exists for this community, you already have too much blogs, mailing lists, forums, news, articles, books to read, videos to watch etc.!
