NETWORK: OneArmenia.com

The idea behind OneArmenia.com. is to have a web-site where Armenians (and Armenians by association) from all walks of life and all over the world converge to meet other Armenians, network, create new friendships, exchange ideas, promote their businesses, showcase their art or just satisfy their curiosity about other Armenians. We all have this peculiar interest in other Armenians. How many times have you looked for Armenian last names whenever you come across a list of some sort or when the credits start rolling at the end of a movie? It might be because there are so few of us that we feel like we either know or ought to know every Armenian in the world. In fact the usual six degrees of separation decreases to two or three degrees when it comes to Armenians. I probably know someone who knows someone who knows you, but we still may never meet, even though we might have similar interests. Add to that busy lives and complex schedules and it becomes even more difficult to find like-minded Armenians who might live in another city or just down the street. There are thousands of Armenians on the internet, spread out in different groups including professional and political organizations, student organizations, artists forums, religious and community organizations…and the list goes on.

Through OneArmenia.com. we would like to bring everyone under one roof – creating a common network regardless of where you live or your membership in other organizations. Here is ONE website where you can search for Armenians ranging from an Architect in Argentina, a Biology student in Boston to a Sculptor in Stepanakert and everyone in-between. Our goal is to foster unity among Armenians on the Web, to become an interactive, searchable database of Armenians from all walks of life and from around the globe and to make it easier for them to connect and share ideas.
