A special message from the Arbiter of Surf-Connection
From time to time, I would receive the sad news of the passing of a friend, colleague or someone in the extended family, the number of which grows with each passing of each new year.
This has always weighed on my mind and finally the opportunity to bring back some light on our memorable past in which time and distance seems to dim.
On our Independence Day I am taking pause to reflect on the killing that occurred in Fashion Island when a resident visiting California from NZ was killed in a 'strongarm' robbery. She was visiting and shopping in Newport Beach at this upscale community locale. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and the kiwi's on New Zealand.
Time also accentuates losing track and nearly forgetting our family and friends. Several friends and I have poured hours of time, sweat and tears into this project to make it as seamless and forgiving as possible without using any social media platforms.
One of our biggest challenges was not using current ‘Social Media’ platforms which are ubiquitous and popular with most of you. Our thinking is to accentuate; NEXTDOOR, Facebook, Snap Chat, Instagram, ‘X,’ formally Twitter but not replace or compete with those ‘Cloud Based’ platforms. We do not feel it is necessary because when the grid fails, who ya gonna call? SOMEONE in your community.
Welcome to what we believe you, like me, will find hours of value as a community member. You may want to know more about this worthwhile endeavor as it evolves. - Tim O'Toole
