Step Three: Share With Your Friends
There’s nothing more exciting than seeing something you care about go “viral” on the internet, with thousands of people buzzing about it. We don’t need the whole world to know about saving Backbone Ridge, but we are betting that if you care, some of your friends will too. There’s three easy ways to share with your friends:
- Email. On every page of this site (we recommend sending the “About” page) you’ll find a little button like this one:
Email This Page You can use that button to send this site to your friends, without even having to open your email program. But if you prefer to use your own email, simply copy the text below, paste into an email and hit send!
Hey Friend,
You may not have heard, but there’s some amazing property up near Blowing Rock, N.C., called Backbone Ridge that’s in danger of being destroyed by development. Check out this site to sign their online petition to stop it. There are some other ways to help listed on the site as well.http://savebackboneridge.com
Thanks!
- Facebook / Twitter. If you use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter, simply post a link to this site there. You can copy the text below and paste it as your Facebook status or Twitter update.

- Word of mouth. Email is great, and so is social media. But nothing will ever replace the effectiveness of natural face to face (or over the phone) communication. So tell your friends about Backbone Ridge, and send them to this site. A phone call or short visit can be very effective.
Thanks for all you are doing to make this project a success! We can’t thank you enough.
