What’s my next move with the virtual exhibition tool that we now have at our disposal? Gosh, you may well ask — I hadn’t a clue when I started out last night, but a number of recent discussions have led me to believe that somebody has yet to spell out exactly what it is we do do.
What I mean is, where are all the American dollars going, other than the normal $500 increase in a normal family’s expenses for food and gasoline this week — next week, it’ll be worse.
I wanted to fill the tank the other day, but there was no loan officer at the gas station when I pulled up.
So what is it we do? What do we offer? Who’s doing this with us? Where is the love? What’s the capital of South Dakota?
That’s the only question for which you actually need the correct answer, and it’s not “Fargo”.
But I haven’t yet told you what it is we do here at The Home, which we lovingly call “IDHHB, Incorporated”. Actually, we refer to it as “the Institute”, which, to a total stranger, sounds even worse.
Well, I’ve been at it all night long, the project of showing what we do, and I’ve been going at it since 7:00 pm last night, all the way to now, and finally have the definitive “greeting space” for the Institute down in concrete, virtual concrete though it may be.
I suppose with the language spoken on today’s newscasts and in both whorehouses of Congress, I might as well have written the title “What the Heck Darn is IDHHB anyway???
When I asked for a rundown of what it is we do and what we offer, I got nothing, so decided to run it down myself, and here’s the result, which was imaginatively titled, “What is IDHHB?”. Actually, that’s a very good question –here’s my answer:
I’ve put up a total of 14 of these virtual exhibition showrooms, which I’ll list here in a simple hotlink format, to avoid a huge download of images if I were to embed all of them onto this page.
That’s the bunch so far. My idea is to embed each one in one of our websites as appropriate to the subject of the website, of course.
I also intend for folks to ship out the addresses I’ve included here. Try to get one person to go to any of the exhibits mentioned above. Just one.
Harder than you thought, eh? It’s very hard to knock someone out of routine, and you’re just the one to do it.
We’re depending on you to change the universe, but you’d better hurry — events are gathering fast and it’s getting harder and harder to alter the course of history, which is why we pulled a collective “D” last semester back in high school in the 37th century, which is where this SIM is located, of course, in the school library, under “The Former Planet Earth”.
I’ve got a dollar bet on the outcome, as you may recall, so I’m hoping for the worst, but preparing for the best.
I’m almost sure that’s how my grandma told it to me.
One thing I hadn’t noticed before is the enormity of the Ashram calendar — we do a LOT of stuff together, don’t we?
Speaking of which, I’ve been giving flying lessons on the Falcon in the Ashram lately. If you’d like some pointers, bring it up at the morning meeting, along with any questions related to the production of virtual exhibits.
By the way, a virtual exhibit that gets no traffic might as well not have been built. The whole point is to drive traffic to it or put it where there is already some traffic.
Failing that, or in addition to that, you need to develop a following that you can send to the destination page.
While you’re at it, you might as well get a voice, become a trusted source, a leader, someone who knows a good thing when they see it.
In short, get a program and stay with it.
See You At The Top!!!
