Could we try to use LHI inside ParceirosVoluntários? #65

Open miguelgraz opened 11 years ago

miguelgraz commented 11 years ago

Guys, @leticia and myself though about trying to put LHI inside the ParceirosVoluntarios site, we just realized that PV itself is on organization's list, but we think the LHI site don't have the same visibility (nor money) that PV's site. What I'm trying to ask here is the permission to use the LHI tech (and help to develop it, of course) and try to combine this tech with the database and visibility that PV have, (trying to) talk directly to them.

What do you guys think about it?

Sounds interesting the idea. Can you elaborate a bit more how do you envision this integration with PV? Do you have any contacts in PV?

We never figured out how to promote more LHI, so any help is welcome.

We through in something very simple, just populate the LHI database with the PV's data (using a wrapper perhaps?) and link the LHI at PV's http://www.parceirosvoluntarios.org.br/Componentes/Rede/MapaRede.asp

The idea is to use LHI and make the search of organizations inside PV as simple as possible, avoiding the need of human interaction and, at the same time, uses the fame that PV already have to make LHI more useful.

Unfortunately I don't have any contact inside PV, I'm trying to get in touch with them.

Actually PV is just one example, there's plenty of organizations like PV that we could contact with the same objective.

I'll keep you guys updated about my try to talk with PV's people.
