Welcome! My name is David, and I have an announcement to make:
It is time to say goodbye to Green Options Media.
But that doesn’t mean that the constituent parts of Green Options Media are going away. Indeed, the momentum created by Green Options Media in 2008 has had more of an effect across the web than we ever could have expected, as people and blogs that were supported by the network slowly metastasized (yes, a bad metaphor), creating content and important conversation where there otherwise would have been less or none.
People who saw their first ongoing paid blogging gigs with us now regularly blog for the New York Times, Fast Company, and many other mainstream outlets. Blog and bloggers who contributed to the growth of Green Options Media back then are now spread throughout the web, improving on the original Green Options model with the founding and building of their own networks, including LiveOAK Media and Simple Earth Media.
Okay, okay, GO Media made a few waves. But what’s happening to Green Options?
As of today, GreenOptions.com is a full fledged community, running on Huddler’s innovative forum/wiki/product platform.
Cool. But what about the other blogs?
