Uplifter Lifts off

From Dave Slusher at Evil Genius Chronicles, news that the Uplifter weblog and Uplifter wiki are now live.

It’s hard to describe the Uplifter lifestyle in a few sentences, but for me, the seed started germinating with the October 4, 2005 Clambake.

So, here are a few succinct one-liners:

  • Uplifters live within their means, generally comfortably below their means.
  • Uplifters embrace doing things for themselves, a’la the DIY items from Makezine.
  • Uplifters are mainly geeks, but not aloof.
  • Uplifters don’t love technology for its own sake, but love technology as a tool for good overall.
  • Uplifters love independent weblogs, and independent music of many genres.
  • Uplifters subscribe and listen to podcasts.
  • Uplifters actively embrace citizen’s media.
  • Uplifters share what they know.
  • I hope that gives you a general idea, since no one knows how this whole thing is gonna turn out. It is gonna be fun, and to the extent old guys can play, I’m prepared to do what I can.
