I made a few enhancements to Third Goal this weekend.

Pictures

Third Goal’s Peace Corps group on Flickr contains nearly 1,500 photos posted by 20 members. A random selection of those photos now appears in the sidebar of the site and at the bottom of each individual post. Anyone may add photos, so join Flickr and begin sharing.

Content

I was a Peace Corps volunteer in 2002 and maintained a blog. This weekend, I uploaded all of my old Guyana Peace Corps posts to this site. If you are a former Peace Corps volunteer (RPCV) and would like to add your old posts to Third Goal, mention it in the comments and I’ll get in touch with you.

Hope you like the additions.

Third Goal is growing. As of this evening, there are 67 registers users, 172 posts, 44 comments, and 101 categories.

  1. Scott,

    Regarding your recent comment on Third Goal, you are invited to add as little or as much Peace Corps content as you would like.

    You’re already a level 5 user, which gives you the ability to change the timestamp of your posts.

    That’s how I added ~100 of my Peace Corps posting from my old blog to Third Goal. Took me about 1.5 hours of copy and paste, but I think the old content adds some value to the site. I simply created a new post on Third Goal, copied the content from my old blog, changed the date and time to match my old blog, and hit submit.

    Feel free to do the same if you would like to incorporate any of your old Peace Corps content to Third Goal. Now that you are out, I suppose you have greater liberties to say what you want.

    Regarding the Peace Corps Flickr group, thanks for all of the photos you’ve added and organized. I promoted you to administrator of this group, so thanks.

    I hope your adjustment back to cell phones, expensive gas, and expressos is going well. Welcome back.
