Introducing the Fr33 Tech team (and pardon our dust!)

Hi folks! I’m Mike Gogulski, and I find myself as the initial facilitator for the Fr33 Tech team.

The team’s mission is to provide and operate all of the computer and software stuff that will make the online presence of the Free Agents Network a powerful vehicle for the advancement of liberty.

Meet the volunteer team so far:

• bile, of the blog of bile and jailedactivist.info
• Keith Calvelli, of CharlotteLiberty.org
• Matt Dawson, aka Wombatron, of the Forums of the Libertarian Left
• Mike Gogulski, of nostate.com and c4ss.org
• Jeff Hammond
• Charles Johnson, aka Rad Geek, of the Molinari Institute
• Darrin Knode, aka ThorsMiterSaw (check out his YouTube channel!)
• Mike Lowry, of The New Activist
• William Pearson, aka The Liberty Tiger, of libertytiger.blogspot.com
• Liberty Pile, of libertypile.com

And our at-large members:

• Jason Talley of the Motorhome Diaries and Anarch.me
• Brad Spangler of the Center for a Stateless Society and BlackVanguard.net

That looks great! Now what do we do?

Most of us are just getting to know each other for the first time, and some of the volunteers haven’t really been integrated into the team yet. And, meanwhile, we have stuff to do! So far we’ve gotten this blog site running to support the re-launch of fr33agents.com (a big thank-you to Jason Talley for donating the domain) as the Free Agents Network, and we’re working to get a wiki site up and running that will allow for more community participation. Past that, there are other projects under discussion in the area of education, and longer-term we aim to create a platform that integrates social networking, blogging and forums together with campaign management and fund-raising capabilities to rival those of such groups as MoveOn.org and the Campaign for Liberty.

For now, please pardon our dust! We had a couple of brief outages at the main site today, and the site itself will be undergoing a gradual evolution in appearance and functionality. Beyond this launch phase, I hope we can bring you online tools for liberty that are as reliable and as capable as can be.

If you’d like to contact us, volunteer, offer suggestions, make complaints or give us praise, please check out the Fr33 Tech group at our social networking site — and feel free to address all complaints directly to me!
