- Alex Bowman - Originally from England, but based in Dalian China. He’s a Drupal Ninja and a perpetual schemer (that’s a good thing). We worked together on DalianDalian.com.
- Chris Amico - Journalist from SF, but now based in DC. He is a great macro model of how news should make the transition online. I worked with Chris on DalianDalian.com.
- James Bruce - Based in Kyoto, James is a contributer to DSninja.com. His site Frugalista Japan is a must-read for anyone living in Japan.
