DIYcity for non-techie communities?

An email I got today:

I am intrigued by the interview on Smart City today (NPR radio). I'd like to help get this small sw Georgia town into improving a few things, but your technological suggestions don't seem to mesh with the level of computer use here. I'm stunned by how many people don't even use email for any reason at all, and are resistant to the idea.

Do you know a similar site that offers hands-on suggestions, rather than technology? Or do you plan increasing your work in that direction. I realize it's a new site still, and hands-on might be a totally different way that you don't want to explore.

Thoughts?
