Hey everybody, I'm glad to see that we have so many new authors for the blog, as well as visitors who just drop in. I'd like to just say welcome to the new authors, and it would be great if you guys could briefly introduce yourself, either in a post or on the post called "Introduce yourselves" lol. I'd also like to encourage readers who feel like they have things to say, but are not sure if their comments will be well received to definitely share their opinions. Differing viewpoints is a big goal on this site!
But I also think that we have suddenly gained a large number of different expectations and viewpoints, without a sense of what this site is truly about. I know that many of the new authors may have joined so they wouldn't hurt inviter's feelings (if only the people i invited were that kind haha) but now's the time to decide if you would like to stay on as a contributing author.
MISSION!
To have a site where everybody can go to and find that all of the posts are stimulating and fun.
Key notes:
Quality not Quantity- Most sites are going for size...amounts of posts, authors and readers are huge...But the fact is that the quality just can't be good on those sites and readers are not prompted to read posts outside of their pre-determined interests.
Here, I'm hoping that each post is good enough so that I will be willing to read and respond to something about politics or sports (things i usually avoid cuz of the lack of personal creative thought put into it). Essentially, you should not have to sift through the site to find something remotely interesting.
Creativity- Sure news stories are interesting...but there's a lot hmmm...everywhere.

Well, that's it for me, if you have suggestions or ideas for the direction of this site (where u want it to go) by all means share it. O and btw, I know everyone's busy so no worries if you don't post for awhile, it's the thought that counts.

snakesaywhat: Can we give people creative titles? Like facebook? Anyone know how to write the code to change the "contributor" section to add titles to people? I call dibs on "chief engineering officer" hee hee

can we transfer all the poker posts to a different section? they are confusing for visitors since they are not very relevant to the main theme of the blog?
good idea, i'll find some way to move/archive them...although it shows how far this blog has come haha! thanks!
hook me up with the code and i can look into it
i like your idea jake, so if you or teddy...or anyone else figures out how to do it, go right ahead!
teddy ur an admin now, so go ahead and look over the code...but please save a backup file so if something happens, it can easily be put back the way it was.
