Takeout 2.0
It seems like longer, but according ot their site, about a year ago Minnesota based Intellectual Takeout launched their site of college level content for the intellectually curious student looking for fair resources. With a mission statement like Educating and Mobilizing for Freedom, how could you go wrong. I spoke with an associate this morning who said that they have done a great job of finding researchers, interns and have built up a large resource library, but are still looking for funding. They've overhauled their look with more appeal to a younger demo. They have much more content to add including a blog. Here's the link and a brief description.
Roughly one year ago, Intellectual Takeout spun off from Center of the American Experiment, a conservative, free market think tank in Minnesota. After doing a lot of the intitial work to get the site built, we began recruiting student researchers from around the country to help us build content for the site. By September 2009 thirty researchers worked for Intellectual Takeout in ten different states. Because of their hard work, Intellectual Takeout ended up with nearly 4,000 pages of internally generated content, much of which is visible on the site now.
With all of that content came the realization that before we had even officially launched the site we had outgrown it. So starting in early October, we set about building a more robust website capable of handling a lot more content while providing our site visitors with a dynamic, user-friendly experience.
What you see now is the fruit of our passion and labor: an online one-stop-shop of conservative, libertarian, and classically liberal resources. We hope you like it.
My kids should be in the market for this site in about 10 years, it should be fantastic by then.
I'll take the Free-market pad thai, extra spicy please, and keep up the great work.
