World BioEnergy News Service explained
At one point in my communications with Mark James of Virgin Enterprises regarding sponsorship of WorldBioEnergyNews.com, I wrote the following:
World BioEnergy News Service which currently include WorldBioEnergyNews.com, BioEnergyWorldNews.com and BioEnergyNews World.com (mirror sites for the transition) and will also publish (someday) africabioenergynews.com, chinabioenergynews.com, indiabioenergynews, brazilbioenergynews.com and usbioenergynews.com.
A note about the design and target visitors: these sites have been structured and written for viewers from developing countries who may be using computers with slower processing and Internet download speeds.
They are self-contained, that is, entire articles are included within the site so there will not be broken external links for readers to have to deal with in the future (with credit given to authorship and links to original location). It is ADA (American with Disabilities Act) compliant. No frames or animated graphics (which can cause seizures), with text alting, image alting, and meta tags that accommodate optical readers. Also, nothing to download (no ActiveX or Java or Flash) in order to view - everything simple html text and optimized graphics for easy viewing and downloading. Since the quality of the information will suffer little time loss, I designed these sites to be used as reference books.
Although the sites currently are compendiums of articles I believe have research and informational value, I envision a World BioEnergy News service "journalist blogger" program. Because Sir Richard has inspired new ideas and new projects, I want to empower local people - and pay them money - to share their local experiences with the rest of the world as these new projects develop. Why they're doing it, how they're doing it, what they've learned from doing it, etc. Plain, old solid journalism in a new age. I also want to be able to fund travel for journalist bloggers to conferences and seminars to gain first hand knowledge and gather original news.
