Web/Internet Communications Infrastructure

I am getting some web infrastructure together today for the Global Understanding Project. As I set up Facebook and LinkedIn groups (Done), domain names and web sites (work-in-progress) and Frappr maps, Forums and Ventrilo servers (TBD), I am delighted at how much there is available for organizations to create a global presence these days. Much of what I want to do would have been impossible to do without the Internet and the Web to communicate with a truly global community.

Successes!

I have gotten the following setup:

• Globalunderstandinginstitute.org
• Facebook: Global Understanding Institute
• LinkedIn: Search for “Global Understanding Institute”

Barriers to Progress

Right now, these are my two greatest Web/Internet quests:

• Globalunderstanding.org

I have run into my first global conflict. A company in Germany, Syndicat Internationale Werbemittel GmbH, is sitting on the domain name for GlobalUnderstanding.org. They have no use for it presently.
