You can now connect to the Pender Island Community Network Blog on your mobile phone.  The website now fully supports mobile smart phones such as the iPhone, Blackberry and Android. The website will automatically recognize your mobile device and redirect you to a streamlined version of the site designed for quick loading on mobile phones. This is probably great news considering you barely get cell reception on Pender and even if you did you probably cannot afford to use data services because Canadian telecommunications services are the most expensive on the planet (thank you Telus and Rogers!). But if you do find yourself out and about and want to post a quick message or photo, you can now do so via your mobile device.

Some stunning new aerial photographs of Pender Island have been posted over at The Gulf Islands Guide by photographer Kevin Oke.

We recently created and  integrated new  Facebook and Twitter accounts with the blog and the main website.
You can also subscribe to our latest updates via RSS (works with Outlook, etc.)

The goal is to get everybody on board – posting to the blog, adding news and events, photos, videos, stories,  etc.

You can also subscribe to get all the latest Pender Island news and updates via email.

If everyone is connected it gives the Pender community a powerful method to connect and share information of any type whether it be political, environmental, social or just plain fun.
