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] (by cam#4507) to keep track of the community's skills and interests, while also using [https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/16RkHA5OS1tYmsoQ4ldFzWGidZzDiUX26 Google Drive] to store files.
