Eric Mills on the continental divide

Eric Mills is an internet test-pilot with a love for anything on the border of the web and “real life.” He works as a consultant for local web start-ups and advises non-profits in their web pursuits.

Always believing in the power of communication and its role in the social sphere, Eric has taught university courses on Protest and Social Reform, designed non-native English speaking curricula for universities in China, advised educational organizations on how to leverage social networks, and the handful of blogs on his blogging team have been nominated for weblog awards.
When unplugged, Eric likes to hike to the top of mountains and fall asleep in the sunshine.

Below are the most recent projects Eric has undertaken on the web:
