TIPS FOR USING NW HOTHOUSE NING
You can customize your personal page with a hand picked color scheme or pre made template, and use your text box to post a picture, talk about about yourself, your church, hawk your books... as you choose.
Groups are for 'cohorts'
on this site intended for state/ province cohorts: Washington, Oregon, B.C, Idaho (one main group page per state/province cort). - To start a topical discussion with folk across the whole network (not specific to your state/province cohort) use 'forums' rather than start a group. + And on your state/province cohort group page, start forums *specific to your state/province cohort.*
Wall comments are public.
When you add a comment to someone's wall, everyone can else read it. so the wall is best for quick, non private greetings/ comments.
Email is private.
To send a private email message to a member 1. click on their picture.
2. Then on their personal profile (below their picture) click 'send a message.'
Blog posts are public. Share a 'one off,' brilliant thought, image or video with the whole network on a blog post.
Forms launch 'ongoing' conversations. (topical discussion threads meant to continue over time).
Check your mail & friend requests click the mail or friends icon - top, left corner of the website.
Cheers and enjoy networking !

miss you! it has been a while...i have been too busy working to make it down to see you guys. hope all is well with you and hopefully i will get a chance to come hang with you! talk to you soon!
rock on!
Just FYI we've got a group going in Portland - the Eighth Day Network is folks from around Oregon, though we've had a couple nibbles from Vancouver/SW Washington as well. Is anyone else doing anything that you know about in my region?
Also - when is the next hothouse - my family is probably going to take a holiday on the Oregon beach in the next 2-3 months - it would be nice to coordinate the trip around attending a hothouse meeting.
