The reasoning behind this renaming and new address, is to redress some of the problems I have personally encountered with the hesitation of the majority of my fellow villagers. The obvious hesitation in being prepared or wanting to understand and be attracted to the experience and ethos offered with the embracing of the internet ( this is especially evident with the more mature villagers ).
This was the main difficulty I encountered with my initial exposure of the blog. Possibly the word "Blog" was also somewhat confusing to our rural population, ( approx 4000 - with 41% being classed as "mature" and 31% actually genuine "senior citizens" )
Personally, because our community has these percentages, is precisly the reason why I am championing the cause - BURTON JOYCE ONLINE - a "WIN-WIN" situation for everyone. This instant communication can provide so many benefits for everyone in our community. Thro from social contact and communication, personal awareness of local administration and services availabilty, plus a direct line for everyone to interchange suggestions, discussion and debate etc, with the ultimate aim integrating an improvement to our village life..
So come on each and everyone of you "Burton Joyceonians" join in the "cause" and embrace the Internet and e mailing for you will inevitably experience a gratification and satisfaction greater than you can ever imagine, particularly .. .. .,
If you have a desire or need to "see and talk"- "pass on village news" with your family or friends -from your own home to almost anywhere in the world
