april 10 2011 San Louie is reaching out to the the local blogging community: we’d like to ask your help in getting the word out about our Kickstarter fundraiser. Last November author Dan Buettner announced that San Luis Obispo–along with Denmark and Singapore–was one of the happiest places on the planet. While Oprah raced a film crew down to our sleepy metropolis to discover the source of our alleged happiness, we were left wondering: Isn’t that a little simplistic? And how do you even begin to measure happiness? So, with Issue 4, San Louie is taking on happy. If you are a fan of provocateurs, a supporter of lost causes (which some say print as a media is–but we refuse to succumb to such cynicism), a believer in creative minds that spin visions that we can’t always afford to realize, please jump on the San Louie bandwagon. We’re attempting to fund the printing of Issue 4 through a collaboration with Kickstarter.com, at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sanlouie/san-louie-takes-on-happy Anyone can contribute, even if the contribution is simply hitting our Facebook Like button on Kickstarter (the button is located right below the video). Or passing this email along. We’ve always had a healthy amount of interest from non-natives, and in fact the first two pledges on Kickstarter are from people who don’t live here. Our MagCloud editions are sold at cost (to keep the price affordable), and who knew people in Alabama and New York would pay $10 for a little magazine that’s all about the Central Coast of California?
