The Future Independent Web: Visions Of What’s To Come!
ID is not a portal.
ID is not a content portal. Good content portals already exist. We have no plans to compete with i2k, Soul of the Web, or others. We would rather work with them.
ID is not a design portal. Good design portals already exist. We have no plans to compete with Linkdup, Three.oh, or others. We would rather work
with them.
ID is not a discussion forum like Metafilter. ID is not a formal reinvigoration of the web like Reboot. ID is not a competition like
Communication Arts or the Webbies. ID is not a festival like SXSW or NMUF, though it may interact with these festivals.
What is ID?
ID is a concept. ID is a goal. We plan to promote, support, and increase public awareness of independent content and design through live events, digital events, and crass, unashamed manipulation of the mainstream media. It will not happen overnight.
Above all, ID is a human network, established mainly by your faith.
