You can invite your friends to contribute to your blog. I used to blog at blogger for years and invited by a friend here on wordpress. When I had a look at her blog I said WOW! That's why I was agreed to join it for nothing. If it were like your blog then I would never come here on wordpress (sorry to say). First make yourself a big fish, then ask others to join your school.

That's the best way I know of to connect with young people around the world.

The current poverty services industry is the problem, not the solution. I think the blog is a good idea; I just don't think this is a good place to find participants.

Hope some youth strike out on their own or behind an organized cause with a clear mandate and lobby govn't, corporations (and blog) and approach such organizations with constructive criticism, action plan and real volunteer work.

The original poster generally buggers off within a few weeks, as soon as they realize they can't put ads on a WP.com blog, and the blog dies. Thus, we are pre-conditioned to treat you like carpetbaggers.

As well, everyone here already HAS a blog. So if you're looking for people dying to blog, this is a bad place to find them. You might have better luck in youth-focused forums, etc.

Sorry if we upset you in any way, kind or form.

We are just two curious people wondering about how life in a city changes the way people think.

We are not an organisation. This is not about us, but about a group of young urban bloggers.

This is not a commercial blog so we don't pay (sorry ardpete, maybe one day we will become rich and be able to share our wealth :D)

The description about you/your group is too vague. Are you officially registered somewhere as an organization. Where is your real address?

I would not give hours of my time and photos to a blog that refused to identify where you are actually geographically situated. Better if you show your faces. Sorry.

You have to show alot of your own original content before anyone offers up their own blog content.

Better yet, you show your real life accomplishments and educational background. Are you college, university graduates? High school students in mysterious cyberspace?

The idea is that these bloggers write about the same topic so that we can compare what someone thinks living in Tokyo or Oslo. Brazzaville or NYC.
