MICHIGAN

Michigan is a U.S. state located in the Great Lakes Region of the United States of America. The name Michigan is the French form of the Ojibwa word mishigamaa, meaning "large water" or "large lake".

Michigan is the eighth most populous state in the United States, with the 2010 census placing its population at 9,883,640 residents. It has the longest freshwater coastline of any political subdivision in the world, being bounded by four of the five Great Lakes, plus Lake Saint Clair. Michigan is one of the leading U.S. states for recreational boating. The state has 64,980 inland lakes and ponds. A person in the state is never more than six miles (10 km) from a natural water source or more than 85 miles (137 km) from a Great Lakes shoreline. It is the largest state by total area east of the Mississippi River.

Michigan is the only state to consist entirely of two peninsulas. The Lower Peninsula, to which the name Michigan was originally applied, is often noted to be shaped like a mitten. The Upper Peninsula (often referred to as "The U.P.") is separated from the Lower Peninsula by the Straits of Mackinac, a five-mile (8 km)-wide channel that joins Lake Huron to Lake Michigan. The Upper Peninsula is economically important for tourism and natural resources.  Source: Wikipedia

 

ESTABLISHING A MICHIGAN RESOURCE CENTER

The first resource center was established long before the Internet between 1975 - 1980 at the Guild of Alternative Artists in Detroit, Michigan. We'd like another chance to manifest this for all of Michigan with your help, support and passionate cooperation.

Over the last ten years we've built a powerful "Resource Center 3.0" platform and business model to support local and regional development of resource centers for communications and networking, interdependence and economic self–reliance, and we'd like to offer this opportunity to the entire Michigan community.

This platform is more advanced than Facebook and focused on building and strengthening community locally. But our company doesn't have the market capitalization of Facebook so we'll require our partners, advertisers and sponsors to make a financial commitment to be able to support this development. There is no time more critical than right now!

So we're looking for the first twelve "Associate" partners ($48/month), the first 24 "Business" partners ($24/month) and the first 100 "Community" partners ($12/month) to make this feasible ASAP.

If we can get enough financial commitments we'll come back in three months and facilitate the Michigan Resource Center regional resource center development and turn it over to a local ORGANIZING TEAM to operate.

• Associate
• Business
• Community

That's our current vision and proposal for building and deploying these worldwide.
