Direction of Hippy Grean

I have posted a side note about Hippy Green going more of eBooks and timeless articles, but I wanted to hear from my readers WHY you enjoy going to this site. I can not compete with hugg.com or treehugger.com who have plenty of writers or “user” submitters, but I do want to push this idea of Green using technology.

The past month I have been thinking a lot about what to do with this site, either continue posting some stories, hoping to get dugg/stumple upon or just change it completely to articles on HOW to go green as well as REAL information that about Tax write offs for alternative fuels.

So rather then keep you in the dark and not post as much, I want to see if anyone out there has an idea or wants to work with me on pushing green technology. Do readers want a ebook from Hippy Green, do you want interesting articles that I find and write about, How can I make this site more enjoyable (other then the obvious of posting more daily content).

Please comment below what you enjoy about hipppy green and How I can make this blog/site better for my “current” readers.

Update: Check out my Eath Day 2008 post on John Murch dot com.

I enjoy the content. I read everytime you write (RSS!!!!)

I think that’s a great idea. I’ve started to tire of the blog scene a bit since there are so many that are just paraphrasing the same news stories. I think hippygreen would do well to have lasting, in depth articles on specific technologies and use cases rather than new product announcements. For instance an article on the theory of PV cells and why they work would be good. It would then be well followed by an article on where to get good, cheap cells, how to install them, and whether its worth it (my brother doesn’t get enough sun to make it a good solution for him). That’s a lot to bite of so maybe spread over a few articles but you get the idea. I think topics like where and how to get tax breaks would be huge too.

Built a system this past Friday, I think it might work with Hippy Green. I will be posting/blogging about it in the next few weeks, look forward to a HUGE 2008 Launch!

Great blog!

If the economics don’t work, recycling efforts won’t either.
As our little contribution to make this economics of recycling more appealing, http://LivePaths.com blogs about people and companies that make money selling recycled or reused items, provide green services or help us reduce our dependency on non renewable resources.

Just found this site while surfing on solar energy. We are considering putting solar panels on the house. We love this site and would love it even more if perhaps you could do articles on programs and tax breaks that the government or states give for going green. Possibly new technologies and what’s out there for the everyday person to incorporate into their lives.

Hey thanks for the great blog, I love this stuff. I don’t usually do much for Earth Day but with everyone going green these days, I thought I’d try to do my part.

I am trying to find easy, simple things I can do to help stop global warming (I don’t plan on buying a hybrid). Has anyone seen that www.EarthLab.com is promoting their Earth Day (month) challenge, with the goal to get 1 million people to take their carbon footprint test in April? I took the test, it was easy and only took me about 2 minutes and I am planning on lowering my score with some of their tips.

I am looking for more easy fun stuff to do. If you know of any other sites worth my time let me know.
