Who wants to help me build a site?

I have purchased the domain "socialistamerican.com" and am going to build this out as a meeting place and news source for all brands of Socialists and Anarchists.

DSA (the Socialist Wing of the Democratic Party,) SPUSA, etc - ALL Socialists will be invited.

A second part would do a news feed.

All I can promise you is the chance to help build a network of comrades from all over the USA....

The site hasn't begun yet - all I've done is buy the domain name

I am designing a banner - what do you think?

Or is it a matter of just setting this as the wallpaper?

I'm probably not what anyone would consider a real socialist, but I like politics, am geeky and like building things.

In fact, yes - I am looking for technical assistance

My question to you: Do you think the workers should have control of the means of production? That is, the "means of production" being the production of capital...

If yes, congratulations! You're a Socialist

If no, I could still use your help!

have neither time nor talent.

I'd consider writing an occasional piece for you once you get it up, though.
