Glenn, I don't know much about the Exit and Build Summit, because whenever I try to register for it I come across a section that wants me to pay and join, even though it says it's free.

Glenn, I don't know much about the Exit and Build Summit, because whenever I try to register for it I come across a section that wants me to pay and join, even though it says it's free. I love what this guy is doing, but, being of the younger generation, it seems as if whatever he's doing, from meeting people, to coordinating, to organizing, to sharing homesteading tips and the like is all done online, and, from my point of view, not simply, either. That cuts out a lot of us who sympathize. Does he provide means to connect directly with people living near us? That would be most helpful, although it isn't usually done by online entities. They do not maintain lists of people willing to connect with each other in given areas. This is my greatest frustration, that it seems that everything needs to be done online, as if we were inhabiting cyberspace. Where are the people? Machine mediated connection is not the same as real interaction.
You have a few points. First, you don't have to pay for it. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and just skip the sales page. Second, as far as the learning being online, that is the best way to reach the most people, but he is talking about creating local communities. How else should this education be done? If I were to do a similar thing in my local area live, I might get 5 people to show up, whereas if you do it online you can get thousands of people to show up and then you can suggest to each of them to do something locally. It's the only efficient and effective way to get the word out. Third, I suggest that you get on the webinar on Tuesday and ask those questions yourself.
