Where I've been taking classes at ArsDigita

one of the students, now employees,

developed this outstanding collaborative

system for local humane societies to

register the animals they have in their shelters,

so that humans could look for lost animals

in their areas, and perhaps eventually

adopt unclaimed animals, or recover their

own lost animals.

Much needs to be done on dev\eloping this site,

but computer programmers who understand

collaborative web development may wish

to become involved with ArsDigita in working

on furthering this site.

I hope to explore what this kind of collaborative

web development could mean for the vegetarian

communities and tapping into our various resources -

not only vegetarian-friendly restaurants and stores,

interest groups, businesses, and people-meeting-people,

but perhaps also vegetarian doctors, RD's, nutritionists,

and natural living communities, therapy, etc.

Could you imagine vegetarian seniors finding

vegetarian-friendly retirement centers?

Once again, the system is collaborative web development,

where people remotely contribute to a website through the

ACS, the ArsDigita Community System. This is a rival

to Microsoft.
