Greetings, I'm resending this because somehow it didn't make it into the archives at e-scribe, and quite a few of our lurkers read there...
I've been inspired by all the great help that's getting organized here! I've gone and resurrected a web site project for the Silver List that's been languishing for at least a couple of years. I've updated the graphics and started putting stuff together for helping to run the list. I'm starting to flesh out the organization of the thing so it's ready to accept *your* contributions. I hope to give us a proper place to *put* the many good words we're putting together. And I don't want to compete with anyone else's efforts. I will happily link to the similar sites that have been started by some of our members. It'll also be the origin of more traffic to the list, *and* the permanent repository of current list rules and instructions and aids for subscription management. I'm aiming for a visually simple, fast loading site. There will be only a handful of graphics except for any that are included in the content we assemble. I could use some help: For example, the FAQ's that Roger is doing will likely fill some of the "about CS" section. I'll use my own writings on list rules and management to fill out the "Silver List" section. I'll need tips and pointers documented for all the mail sorting, HTML stopping, archive searching techniques people have come up with. I'd like somebody to gather, edit, and collate testimonials. We need people to gather, evaluate, write descriptions of, and collate links to web sites, newsletters, mailing lists, etcetera for our "Links and Resources" section. We'll need people to do some data mining at the archives to answer common questions like "Does CS work on <blank>?" I'm going to need a consensus on a "simplest CS maker" and recipe, as well as the easiest and best modifications for a "better CS maker." This will need to include some analysis of product to determine concentration, particle size, percentage ionic, and the variability of these parameters for the different generator designs. Can you say, "We won't need to repeat ourselves all the time?" You don't have to be able to write if you're good at gathering and organizing information. I or others can write or edit copy. If you can't write well, but have good things to say, others can edit you for style and make you look good! You don't have to know anything about web page construction, but if you do I can probably use that too. It *would* help if you were familiar enough with web sites in general to offer suggestions like "We need a page for <blank>", or "You need to add a link there!" or "That doesn't seem to work right!" It's sometimes easier to know how a site ought to work if you're *not* the one building it! The only thing you *do* have to have is the time, energy, and enthusiasm to spare for the effort. Contact me off list at [email protected] and let me know what you're interested in doing to help. I'll put together a crew, give you a tour, and start giving out assignments. When it's in decent shape I'll release the address of the prototype to the list for review and further contributions. I have some domain names registered which I will get turned on when the site is ready to go live in a few weeks. Watcha say folks?
