Gift Economy

I have just started (in conjunction with my design site) a new blog called "The Gift Economy" which revolves around giving for the sake of giving. It will be a discussion and a sharing of ideas. I have made the new blog on "blogger" and we'll call that a gift from Google, just to show that great big companies can afford to give too! I have added some information on my design site as well so hopefully you can learn with me as I play around with the concept of 'gifting'.

A friend of mine recently went away with her university (or do they call it college?) to Uganda to help patients t a hospital. I have not a chance to mention this blog but wish you all to have a visit and see people doing good things. The blog is written by the students on the trip so it gives great insight. I just wanted to say good luck Leah, someone I knew way back in Korea, well done with the study princess! To everyone else please take a look at the blog and show your support by commenting on the blog.

Our partner website "Ineligible Bachelor" has been completed and is now ready to explore! It is a lighthearted site aimed at the absurd and the silly. With a very random "Monty Python" feel it may not be for everyone but if you have a a more slanted sense of humour then it will definately give you some laughs. Just for an example for all of you here is the website so you can see what the current posts are all about: http://ineligiblebachelor.com

As a former ESL (English as a second Language) teacher I can always see the need for informative websites that newcomers in the profession. For many it is a big decision after university about what to do in the future. English teaching is still one of the best options out there in terms of money, experience and the chance to travel. I have always been of the mindset that there is difference between traveling and going on a trip. English teaching offers the "traveling" option as it allows you to live and work in a foreign country while experiencing the culture.
