I don’t know if language is the<\/em> social construction of reality, but I have litte or no doubt that it is a<\/em> social construction of reality. Welcome to constructs.info! \ud83d\ude00<\/h3>\n

I find it fitting that constructs.info is one of the first webites constructed via a magazine publishing platform I am in the process of creating (it is not the very first one, but certainly one of the first ten).\u00a0 It is the only one (so far) I have decided to use for \u201ebeta tests\u201c.<\/h3>\n

As a sort of incentive to get people interested in \u201ebeta-testing\u201c the platform, I am offering a free lifetime membership to the first 10 people willing (and qualified) to publish articles via this service. The required qualifications are quite simple and easy to fulfill.<\/h3>\n

First and foremost: You must publish your own RSS feed. The way to do this is to first register your own domain (in your own name \u2013 as the domain name owner will be the person receiving the membership, though this could also be a business or organization), and then to use a publishing tool capable of publishing an RSS feed (for example: WordPress). There are other work-arounds, but this is the most simple and straightforward approach.<\/h3>\n

That is really the only qualification required to participate. The quick and easy way to sign up is to visit zines.tel<\/a> and follow the directions there.<\/h3>\n

The configuration of the membership is also quite simple and straightforward \u2013 it mainly has to do with settings you choose to share information via your own blog… and you do not even need to use our blogging platform to participate \u2013 if you prefer to publish your own information on your own website, then that is perfectly fine (the posts you choose to share via your own blog<\/em> will be shared automatically<\/em> with the readers of this website \u2013 again: see the sign-up link for more details \ud83d\ude09 ).<\/h3>\n

I look forward to your participation in our discussions. We have already considered having a reading group to discuss Berger + Luckmann’s \u201eThe Social Construction of Reality\u201c starting this month \u2013 so SIGN UP NOW!!! \ud83d\ude1b<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
