Shadowing Curtis Chang from Consulting Within Reach (CWR)
Basically I believe Mr.Curtis has a good mix of practicality in the way he works his life out. I'll probably just follow his blog and read their Case Studies thats available on their website.. I've made that bold move by contacting him via the mail address provided in the Contact page "info@cwr-team.com"
==============================================================================
Basically here is the content of the mail I sent to Mr.Curtis
Hi Mr.Curtis
Please bear with me as I make my introduction as short as possible :)
I'm basically playing an "EVOKE" on line game that's pretty much applicable to real world situation.
So this is how I came to know you.
1. I'm an avid follower of TED talk show (http://www.ted.com/talks)
This talk piqued my curiosity (http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/jane_mcgonigal_gaming_can_make_a_...)
2. This introduced me to the online game introduced by Ms. Mcgonigal towards the end. I usually don't play online games, not into it but decided to give this a go since it had real world kinda applications.

3. In sigining up and wanting to be a "Founding Member", I need to choose a hero to shadow to create an evidence TAG, so to speak and this is where you come into the picture. I looked-up this website (http://www.socialedge.org/) provided in the game and traversed through a few profiles before settling on your good self (http://www.socialedge.org/features/expert-advice)
My reason for settling on your profile was more towards the tune that you try and empower people/organization with their belief/mission/vision that becomes the source and strength that should and would galvanize any people/organization if done correctly. "Building the organization behind your mission"
So a little bit about me...
I'm from Malaysia and my wife (if told) would think I'm nuts for doing this kinda thing. So I'm going to let this slide for now and see where this game takes me and what I can learn from it and the game from me.
So I'll probably be following you're blogs as the hero I'm shadowing and nothing more unless you have anything to say which would be a bonus.
So thanking you in advance and please do not get offended if this does not go down well with you.
Many Thanks for your time
Cheers!

In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
