FAQs About BlueWorld
What was BlueWorld.org?
BlueWorld.org was a world geography web site for people who want
to know more about the regions and countries that make up our world.
It was designed to help researchers, students, and laypersons find
quality news and information quickly and easily.
Why was it created?
We felt that many people, Americans especially, know very little
about the other countries and peoples of the world. We think the
world is a fascinating place, and the many diverse people and customs
of the world are endlessly interesting and inspiring. With this
site, we hoped to help English-speaking people get more informed
about the rest of the world.
What was your inspiration?
Our inspiration was really to fill a niche by creating a fun, easy-to-use
web site to allow people to browse current information about
each of the countries of the world.
What were your goals?
Our goal, since we were an unfunded organization, was to provide
the best quality information for people at the lowest possible cost.
By using open source software, free xml news services, and public
domain data and images, we were able to achieve this goal.
The site was founded in the very early 21st century. It is outdated and no more.
Thanks to anyone who found it useful back in the day!
