Akahele.org is launched

Akahele.org has been launched. "Akahele" is a Hawaiian word which means "to take care", "to be cautious". It is the opposite of "wiki".


What if there were a place on the Internet where the Internet itself could be carefully and cautiously reviewed and critiqued? What if the voices you heard came from real, identifiable people who backed their musings and words with their real-life credentials and experiences? What if facts trumped speculation? Imagine a calm, rational place on the Web where complex Internet issues detrimentally impacting our society are presented for examination — without unnecessary jargon, without "insider" metaphors, without confusing (or boring!) the average citizen who doesn’t know the meaning of an "open proxy" or a "DoS attack".

The Akahele blog will strive to be that place.
