About The InSite
If you’re a teen or young adult, and have ever
thought about making a difference, then The InSite
was designed for you. We’re here to give you the
information, the inspiration, and many possible
game plans so you can take positive charge of your
life. It’s all about discovering real ways to make
the planet, as well as your own personal corner of
it, a saner, cleaner, more equitable place to live.
By focusing on doing what it takes to make things
better and sharing the personal stories of people
actively involved in all aspects of that process,
The InSite will help you unleash the infinite power
for positive change within us all.
The InSite first launched in 1997 as part of the online community, Talk City,
produced by LiveWorld, Inc. After
changing ownership several times, The InSite is now back in the hands of its
creators, Annie and David Fox.

“I
fundamentally believe that if you bring
people together—people on the edge of
greatness—and you push them over that
edge together, great things result. This
is the extraordinary potential of the
Internet: the opportunity to bring people
together and in that context expand their
human experience.”
—Peter
Friedman,
CEO LiveWorld, Inc.
