Cre8tive Flow

Spring means rebirth. At Cre8asiteforums, in celebration of any excuse to celebrate, we focused on “green marketing” this week in honor of Earth Day. Testing interest by the Cre8tive Community and web site owners of earth-people-friendly web sites has been fascinating.

We made some new friends and opened our doors to those who feel strongly about making positive contributions to the planet and people.
