About me

The Real i is a semi-monthly webshow and blog featuring everything hot and emerging on the web.

The Real internet is real people with real ideas.

The Real internet is sometimes hard to find, but it’s out there…so we do a little digging to bring you the best new sites on the net, so you don’t have to spend your time searching, and we help get the word out about awesome new companies and talent.

Ashley Fleming knows non-profits. Much of her time is dedicated to helping others through her career as a non-profit housing coordinator. She shares with us some emerging non-profits on the internet or what we like to call "Weblanthropy."
