– Goodbyes...


THE INSIDER
News and gossip from the Diva

Two big announcements this week, folks. First, Tripod is facilitating a nation-wide Web site building contest to encourage teens to share their viewpoints on Team Harmony, a foundation seeking to educate, motivate, and inspire young people to combat all forms of bigotry and to promote respect for diversity. Teens can build a Tripod site to communicate how they're making a difference in their schools and communities. Winners will be announced at the Fleet Center in Boston this December. We're hoping that this contest will really get teens on the Web writing and building about their experiences and visions for the future. Good luck to everyone who enters! No one can lose in this situation - we all want a world more full of respect for human life and diversity!

And now it's time to say goodbye, my friends. This is my last week at Tripod. I will no longer be seen skipping down the halls of the new Waltham building (or sunning myself on the roof deck!). But fear not - I will make sure the new Insider Diva (or tenor if he passes muster) carries on the tradition I have started. The new Insider mastermind will be trained in the ways of Insider-wisdom, and will not start writing till I have deemed them worthy of the task! So you don't have to worry about things changing too much - I'll make sure the next Insider creator has his or her finger on the pulse of office gossip, as well as a sense of humor that will keep you chuckling while you read away.

I've had a fabulous time during my stint as Insider Diva, a title I hold in high esteem. I hope you have all enjoyed reading as much as I have enjoyed writing. May you all continue to build your dreams on Tripod - my best to each and every one of you!
