Hi there! I'm Ben Schultz, the administrator and founder of Bluepages, and this is my personal user page. If you'd like to contact me with any questions or concerns, you can reach me here.
My philosophy in creating Bluepages
I created Bluepages out of a desire to share and preserve local knowledge, and to establish what I consider a new form of research. By analogy with genealogy, I call this research platiology.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag Credit where credit is due, I'm evidently not the first person to coin this term.</ref> Genealogy (which I have plenty of experience with) is not just the study of people, but the study of the connections and relationships between people, and of the impacts they have on others. In much the same way, I hope that platiology will emerge as not just the study of places, but the study of the connections and relationships between people, and of the impacts they have on people. Bluepages is meant to be a single, consistent place to collect this research, where anyone with the time and will to do so can be a platiologist.
