i'm contemplating making a website for the
use of the permaculture community. for the
moment i am still very much educating myself
and trying to figure out how my skills as a
programmer and graphic designer can best
be used on this project. i have many ideas
and have written a fairly long-winded exposition
of those, but i think it best if i ask you guys first
before i put my ideas forward:

if you could have a permaculture website
that could do *anything* you wanted, what
would those features that you find most
important/useful be?

keeping in mind not just the currently initiated, but also
those wanting to find out more, as well as functionality
that will be useful in the long term, as the world situation
continues to unfold.

Have a look at:
Hosted by ibiblio (http://www.ibiblio.org)
http://www.permaculture.info
this uses MediaWiki
to it can be added a WordPress blog and
forums provided by BBPress. I think RSS feeds can be inserted anywhere you
want.

I have made meager beginnings at:
http://www.ibiblio.org/permaculture
which offers Wordpress as a portal to a MediaWiki wiki
and BBPress forums, all integrated together.

You might consider having ibiblio host your project (its free).
Theyc can host .org and .net domains for you; .com's require more work and
an external domain server.

Google Blogger, GMail, Picasaweb galleries, and Google Custom Search Engines
are all very
useful resources that could be used by anyone wanting to get linked into your
comprehensive portal/centralized system.
