Front Porch Forum: Private online communities among neighbors thrive around Burlington, Vt.
Michael Wood-Lewis took undergraduate computer science and graduate business degrees, added a dash of career experience running non-profits, and then formed Front Porch Forum, in Burlington, Vt. Now the service has expanded to dozens of communities throughout Chittenden County.   In this 30-minute interview with the Media Giraffe Project’s Bill Densmore, conducted at a Bennington, Vt., restaurant on Jan. 28, 2010, Wood-Lewis explains why he started FPF, why it's a for-profit, and why its more than 12,000 users use it, how he makes a living, and how he could see FPF expanding elsewhere.
