Tribe Wanted, an Experiment in Alternative Community (On a Tropical Island!)

Tribewanted Island

A group of people started this online community as an experiment to transfer it to the real world on an island near Figi in the South Pacific.   Apparently it works like this; you join the tribe (The fee is anywhere from $220 - $660), then you are free to go to the island (at your own expense) anytime starting September 1st.  Once there, you are welcome to do whatever you want, from laying on the beach reading a book, to helping build the islands infrastructure, to helping to name the island.

Man and the MoonIt’s an interesting idea,  it reminds me a bit of Burning Man, and Black Rock City, the once a year festival I’ve been attending in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada for the past 7 years.  I’ll try to keep up with the news on this organization to see how their experiment develops over the coming months and years, I hope they do well.
