Thu, 10 Jul 2008 04:02:17 +0100 http://www.thecoolhunter.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1268&Itemid=55 From the founder of the cool hunter comes dear-god.net; (http://www.dear-god.net) a startlingly new concept of spirituality where people from all over the planet reveal their innermost hopes and fears in the form of prayers to god. Dear God is completely non-demoninational and the term god is used in the broadest sense – encompassing every religion’s concept of a higher power; be it a Christian god, a Muslim god or simply a fluid idea of universal energy. In its first week, the site has sparked an organic revolution, with people all over the world embracing the opportunity to unburden themselves, to share their hopes and fears with others in an effort create hope, healing, inner peace and clarity.From the poignant and the heart-wrenching to even the light-hearted and the humorous, the posts on dear god cover the gamut of human experience, providing a powerfully raw and honest insight into our world today. As one online site stated (http://kingcincinnati.wordpress.com/) "After viewing this website I found it to be so honest of the world’s reflection and thoughts. See we as believers probably wonder and ask the same types of questions, but never express them to anyone. There are a lot of different views about what and who God is and that is reflected in this site. Try to not view this with a closed mind….Try not to debate that you know the right answer….Try to view this as an opportunity to peek into the heart of our world".The logo and site design were created by London based design agency Something Somewhere (http://www.something-somewhere.net/) - the same firm that created the Artic Monkeys website.

We attract those who know - and those who want to know - about fashion, lifestyle, design, travel, architecture and music, among many other topics. We are looking for a few more contributors around the world that can spot, research and write about cool stuff – we are particularly keen on new contributors in fashion, design/architecture and music. If you have an eye (nose, ear) for what’s new, innovative and cool, and are willing and able to do the research that make the posts worth our readers’ while, we’d love to hear from you! You need to be able to write concise, snappy copy but more importantly you need the ability to locate and unearth interesting and original things – that means people, products and places that are leading the way. Basically you need a ‘cool radar’ that enables you to spot something of interest at 20 paces. If this sounds like you send us a sample. Keep it to 100 words max and attach pics if you have them. e-mail (%20%3Cscript%20language=%27JavaScript%27%20type=%27text/javascript%27%3E%0A%20%3C%21--%0A%20var%20prefix%20=%20%27ma%27%20+%20%27il%27%20+%20%27to%27;%0A%20var%20path%20=%20%27hr%27%20+%20%27ef%27%20+%20%27=%27;%0A%20var%20addy60297%20=%20%27bill%27%20+%20%27@%27;%0A%20addy60297%20=%20addy60297%20+%20%27thecoolhunter%27%20+%20%27.%27%20+%20%27net%27;%0A%20document.write%28%20%27%3Ca%20%27%20+%20path%20+%20%27%5C%27%27%20+%20prefix%20+%20%27:%27%20+%20addy60297%20+%20%27%5C%27%3E%27%20%29;%0A%20document.write%28%20addy60297%20%29;%0A%20document.write%28%20%27%3C%5C/a%3E%27%20%29;%0A%20/--%3E%5Cn%20%3C/script%3E%3Cscript%20language=%27JavaScript%27%20type=%27text/javascript%27%3E%0A%20%3C%21--%0A%20document.write%28%20%27%3Cspan%20style=%5C%27display:%20none;%5C%27%3E%27%20%29;%0A%20/--%3E%0A%20%3C/script%3EThis%20e-mail%20address%20is%20being%20protected%20from%20spam%20bots,%20you%20need%20JavaScript%20enabled%20to%20view%20it%0A%20%3Cscript%20language=%27JavaScript%27%20type=%27text/javascript%27%3E%0A%20%3C%21--%0A%20document.write%28%20%27%3C/%27%20%29;%0A%20document.write%28%20%27span%3E%27%20%29;%0A%20/--%3E%0A%20%3C/script%3E)bill@thecoolhunter.net (mailto:bill@thecoolhunter.net) This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it Tue, 30 Oct 2007 05:49:10 +0100 http://www.thecoolhunter.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=962&Itemid=55 In a society obsessed with the shiny and new, The Cool Hunter has become the reference point of choice for the latest in what's hot tomorrow.
