Here are my thoughts, if you take it and a few dollars with you it might buy a cup of coffee at mickey Ds'. When I go to the GLoT website it reminds of a group of people that do not update things. We have much the same issue with some lodge websites, and the GLoT lodge pages. This is not a good thing when people are visiting your site for information or your members are trying to stay up to date. When I say up to date I am not implying communication to lodge secretaries but a general update.
For an organization with the number of members which the GLoT has there should not be an issue with finding enough money to set up the Grand Master on a Labtop which has a wireless card from a cellular provider. This would allow for the ability to Twitter, blog, Facebook, and other online activities while traveling or in spare time. Twitter is a fast way to update most communication and could be also tied into the GLoT website. Little things like updates on how ideas he has laid out in his
Grand Message are progressing, that he is going to be at such and such meeting/lodge/function, Things that may have been passed on to the GLoT, such as the Come and Take It function. A proactive stance could cause more people not to only learn more about what we are doing, but also cause more brethren to be active state wide.
The GLoT and the Grand Master of Texas could also comment on the amount of Scholarships as a whole were given by lodges in Texas. I've never seen this number and I think this could be something that would help the lodges. I know what we have allotted in our lodge but not state wide.
All organizations have to keep updated on technology otherwise they are left behind. I'm not saying you throw traditions to the side or that you abandon the principles which have made you but I am saying you have to keep up with the times. There is a limited amount of information which is truly not to be spoken or communicated when you look at what we do as a whole.
Just my thoughts and opinions.
