More about the transition of “Think Free” to the new Earthpages!
Well, it’s back to school for millions of kids today and I’m happy with the transition from the old “Think Free” (where you’re at now) to the new Earthpages. Revising and migrating existing articles from one blog to the other gives Earthpages a whole new vitality. Maybe Marshall McLuhan was right: The medium is the […]

However, the existing material at the former Earthpages.ca – Think Free (posted up to 07/18/2018) will stay online and can still be reached at https://earthpages.wordpress.com. So if you just want to che […]
Should We Merge? – Earthpages.ca | Earthpages.org
