Güney
A mountain village in Yeşilova, Burdur, near Lake Salda: a community site today, and the ground for ideas about ecological, self-sufficient living.
Where it stands
The community site is live at guney.live (checked 5 November 2026). The ecological-living plans are at concept stage.
Checked 5 November 2026, from a live check of the site, project records in the site repository, the owner.
Purpose
Keep a village connected and explore a way of living closer to the land.
The problem
Small villages lose people and memory; modern life hides where water, power and food come from.
The concept
A community site for visiting, remembering and helping the village, and a longer-term concept for land, water, solar energy and cultivation.

Notes
A place to visit the village online, share a memory of it, or offer a hand. It sits closer to Life than to business: the point is the village, not the software.
