[Roll your sleeves up and] Get Dirty [working]. ORBlogs.org is born.
Can you believe anyone would be so presumptuous as to register ORBlogs.org and just assume that people would accept it?
I did.
I’m sorry, I’ve been feeling dizzy lately. I must’ve slipped.
Barely enough time to eat lunch- but there’s enough time to get a quick and dirty wiki going as a place that people can post desires, specs, thoughts, offers of help, etc. I’m paying for that server, might as well use it.
It’s not a replacement for ORBlogs.com. It’s a place to discuss rebuilding ORBlogs.com. It’s a wiki. The idea is that we can get software specifications, organizational structure, and general feelings about other aspects of the site and the community. Make it what you will.
Yes, it’s a crappy site right now. I did it over my lunch break- and I had to save enough time to steal the ORBlogs Twitter account too. That’s just a placeholder because whomever takes over ORBlogs is certainly going to need it.
If everyone hashes everything out tonight over beers and doesn’t need the wiki, that’s fine. The $10 is less than I would’ve spent on beers anyway. I just thought it would help.
If it’s useful, I’ll be back next week to build something more substantial- and appropriate. With user accounts because The SPAMmers are undoubtedly on their way.
Pingbacks and shout outs for blogs covering the issue:
And I’ve already got my first idea for an ORBlog specification- in the form of a plugin/widget. We need better inter-site connectivity and easier linking.
