On Tuesday, September 21st we launched the new iEvolve website with Dr. Marc Gafni, Sally Kempton, Diane Musho Hamiton, and Sofia Diaz. We are very excited to share with you the new look and feel of iEvolve – clean, fresh, and super easy to navigate.
Let us show you around the new site, share with you our new and improved community website features, and look forward to some new iEvolve website features planned to launch in January 2011. Exciting times!

- iEvolve Weekly Podcast
We are officially announcing our new weekly iEvolve podcast . If you aren’t subscribed yet, you’ll see several subscription options on the right-hand side of the home page, at the bottom. Subscribing to the podcast ensures that you’ll receive the most recent iEvolve podcast automatically through your preferred service. We suggest the iTunes program as the best way to receive our weekly iEvolve podcast. You can also find our iEvolve podcast in the iTunes Store.
- iEvolve Guest Bloggers
Another great community feature is that we now have the capacity to accept and publish guest blogs from our iEvolve Community Members. As a guest blogger, your post will be featured in our iEvolve blog. We plan on publishing several new articles each week. Want to contribute to iEvolve? Do you have a unique perspective on a relevant issue? Submit your posts here to contribute to the Integral Evolutionary community.
- Powerful Comment System
Another feature that we’ve included on the site is a new powerful commenting system. This system is powered by a service called Disqus Comments. Disqus (dis·cuss • dĭ-skŭs’) is all about changing the way people think about discussion on the web and we are very excited to bring this new feature to the iEvolve community. These new features include comment logins through your Twitter, Facebook, OpenID, and Yahoo accounts, threaded commenting, the ability for users to track comment threads via e-mail, and a powerful moderation system so that we can keep the conversation on track and evolving.
Our hope is that this feature creates the ability to have deep, intelligent, insightful and multi-perspectival dialogues around the content presented on iEvolve. We will be doing our best to moderate this new space, so that an environment of mutual respect can be upheld. iEvolve is a troll-free environment. Help us keep our streets safe. Volunteer as an iEvolve Community Moderator today!
- Related Posts
Another feature that we’re psyched to share with our community, appears on the bottom of each post—for our blogs, podcast, audios, and videos—and that is the “Related Posts” feature. Just as the name suggests, this feature analyzes various aspects of a content piece and generates a list of posts that have similar content for you to explore. If you find that you really enjoy a particular piece of content, then check out the Related Posts list and explore our content suggestions on iEvolve.
Future Features
Looking forward, we’ll be implementing new ways to make the iEvolve website meet the ever growing demand of our online iEvolve Community. In January 2011 we will launch our online iEvolve store, full of in-depth media programs to help support people’s individual spiritual practices. Stay tuned for that!
We also want to find out from those of you who are using the site, what features you’d most be interested in seeing. What would help make iEvolve a leading resource of 21st century spiritual practice in the digital world? If you have feedback, or want to give iEvolve a Tip of the Hat, visit our Contact Page.
We hope you enjoy the new iEvolve website.
Warmly,
iEvolve: Global Practice Community
