The Portal Group exists to facilitate community projects in service to the ideas expressed by [[Eric Weinstein]] on [[The Portal Podcast]] and elsewhere. We use [https://discord.gg/TDbpwzz Discord] to organize and communicate, and we track projects on <!-- [https://www.google.com/ a custom database] and --> [[Projects|the wiki]]. We have also developed a [https://users.theportal.wiki/ user database] to keep track of the community's skills and interests, and we use [https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/16RkHA5OS1tYmsoQ4ldFzWGidZzDiUX26 Google Drive] to store files.

===Who are Brooke, Brandon and Tim?===
|content=Tim, Brandon, and Brooke coordinate closely to manage The Portal Group and plan for its future.
====Brooke====
[[File:Brooke Profile.jpg|100px|right]]
Brooke works closely with Eric. Through developing [https://theportal.group/blog/ The Portal Blog], transcribing all content featuring [[Eric Weinstein]] and her frequent conversations with him, she is the best judge for how projects match up to the values of the Portal. If you have a high value project, it is worth showing her.

[[File:Brandon Profile.jpg|100px|right]]
Brandon is a professional web developer and consultant. He runs the Discord server, built the [https://theportal.group website] and projects databases, and set up the [[Portal Wiki|wiki]]. He coordinates day to day management when he isn't deep in dev projects.


== Commands ==
====Tim====
We've configured a bot with several helpful commands. Also, several less-than-helpful commands.
