Communication is the process of conveying information from a sender to a receiver with the use of a medium in which the communicated information is understood by both sender and receiver. It is a process that allows organisms to exchange information by several methods.

Communication requires that all parties understand a common language that is exchanged, There are auditory means, such as speaking, singing and sometimes tone of voice, and nonverbal, physical means, such as body language, sign language, para-language, touch, eye contact, or the use of writing. Communication is defined as a process by which we assign and convey meaning in an attempt to create shared understanding.

This process requires a vast repertoire of skills in intra-personal and interpersonal processing, listening, observing, speaking, questioning, analyzing, and evaluating. Use of these processes is developmental and transfers to all areas of life: home, school, community, work, and beyond. It is through communication that collaboration and cooperation occur. Communication is the articulation of sending a message, through different media whether it be verbal or nonverbal, so long as a being transmits a thought provoking idea, gesture, action, etc.

Communication happens at many levels (even for one single action), in many different ways, and for most beings, as well as certain machines. Several, if not all, fields of study dedicate a portion of attention to communication, so when speaking about communication it is very important to be sure about what aspects of communication one is speaking about. Definitions of communication range widely, some recognizing that animals can communicate with each other as well as human beings, and some are more narrow, only including human beings within the parameters of human symbolic interaction. Nonetheless, communication is usually described along a few major dimensions: Content (what type of things are communicated), source, emisor, sender or encoder (by whom), form (in which form), channel (through which medium), destination, receiver, target or decoder (to whom), and the purpose or pragmatic aspect.

Between parties, communication includes acts that confer knowledge and experiences, give advice and commands, and ask questions. These acts may take many forms, in one of the various manners of communication. The form depends on the abilities of the group communicating. Together, communication content and form make messages that are sent towards a destination. The target can be oneself, another person or being, another entity (such as a corporation or group of beings).

Vision Statement and Purpose:

This "Resource Center 3.0 Platform" was designed to spotlight and inventory the best people, projects, programs, media, events, news, businesses and organizations so as to organize communications and networking in our communities via the Internet. Our goa is to improve the quality of life for everyone while being sustainable on the earth.

To organize a news service and media organization keeps us informed of world events while participating in reporting and producing our own conscious media, films and audio. This provides endless new opportunities and possibilities, and keeps us responsive and watchful of our rights and liberty.

"Our lives begin to end when we become silent on the things that matter." - Dr Martin Luther King

True networking has an interpersonal human face, not merely a technological one. Technology can either be an aid or hindrance to our interconnectedness. Social media networks are emerging to demonstrate powerful capabilities when we desire to connect and network with each other. This enhances our ability to relate, interact and build projects with each other in still unimaginable ways.

I saw a vision of the "power and significance of communications networking" long before personal computers, digital cameras and video technology we now take for granted. As an emerging global brain of individuals working together to expand consciousness and awakening on the planet and in the universe this has never been more important.
