Northern Village Blog

Welcome to the Northern Village blog, where we highlight the latest in our community and reflect on the challenges of the online world. In practice we help people find their voice online in their own own corner of the web, and get the word out without a giant platform sitting in the middle. New posts appear here first — and travel out to the fediverse and blogs, so you can follow from wherever you already are. More on this soon.
