Community Festivals and Tours

Once the festival or tour is over, the web site remains, and is not updated for the next event until much later. There is value in this practice, as one can get, by looking at the "old" site, a very good impression of what the next tour or festival will be all about.

Governance

There are many other organizations and agencies, aside from those listed below, that affect the governance of Gabriola Island. Some are too far removed from immediate Island life to be mentioned here (eg. the web sites of the Federal Government or Her Majesty the Queen) and others are mentioned elsewhere in this directory. (eg. parks) For issues surrounding the governance of Gabriola, see the sections local issues and media

Personal Sites

On the sites included under this heading, people communicate about matters of personal interest or concern through the written word and images. They use a range of formats from standard types of web sites to blogs to postings, by individuals on sites such as flickr, where membership gives them a personal web presence. Not all blogs are listed below. For example, most of the Island's real estate agents maintain blogs. For those see the web sites of individual agents in the real estate section of this Directory. You'll come across blogs in some other sections as well.

Web Directories - Gabriola and Other Gulf Islands

For Gabriola Island I list all directories I'm aware of, whether commercial or not. For other Gulf Islands I list only those directories that are non-profit, like this Directory. As for the Open Directory Project, it fails to provide complete listings for the Islands, but it is better than any for-profit effort.

Web Site News and Updates





.
Inclusion Guidelines

1. The Gabriola Web Directory is not a commercial site or a site that exists to promote an individual or a cause. To have a Gabriola Internet site listed, I do not ask the site's owner for membership in any organization or for financial contributions, and no one can buy an enhanced profile or an advertisement.

2. The Gabriola Web Directory lists mainly sites by individuals and organizations based on Gabriola Island.

3. The Gabriola Web Directory includes sites that seem to have been abandoned. The reason is that it is not up to me but up to the originator and owner of the site to decide whether or not to take it offline. Sometimes organizations and individuals have every intention of refreshing their web presence at some point. Sometimes they are just comfortable with leaving their handiwork in cyberspace even though time has passed it by. There is nothing wrong with that. Life is complex and messy. So is the Internet.

4. The Directory lists some off-Island sites if those sites contribute directly to Gabriola Island life.



Copyright

I believe that information (in contrast to personal creations such as scholarly publications, works of fiction, photographs, etc.) should be shared freely for the benefit of all. There is no attempt to copyright the Directory; likely it would not be possible in any case, as the content can be reconstructed by anyone who does a bit of searching on the web. Accordingly, the listings are free for visitors to use or copy. If you wish to give me credit for any borrowings, I'd be pleased, it might be the courteous thing to do, but it's not strictly necessary.

I hope that you'll enjoy paging through the Directory and find as much joy in some of the hidden treasures here as I have.
