Goanet had a humble beginning 15 years ago with a group of 20 or so young students across the globe joining together to form the first Goan network online. The network has now grown to over 12,000 members worldwide. To me, Goanet is more than merely a mailing list. It's been a family to me for these 15 years. Indeed, Goanet has been with me through good times and bad. Many of you have been there with me over the last 15 years as my life changed. We may not have met but we share a connection. I am sure many of you feel the same way. I wanted to thank each and everyone of you for making Goanet what it is today. We wouldn't be here as a group if it wasn't for your hard work, dedication and support. Special thanks goes to our volunteers who spend countless of thankless hours supporting the community. One of our volunteers (guess who) has volunteered for 14 years now. Amazing! We deserve a collective congratulations as a group on this fantastic achievement. Please feel free to make a comment on the public forum. I think we'd all be delighted to hear some stories and reminisce. Happy 15th birthday Goanet! -- Herman Herman Carneiro Founder www.Goanet.org Where Goans Connect!
