I'm glad it's coming along. However, the inclusion of Twitter feed is a bad idea. The noise level was already high, with Tweets included it will be unusable.

Glad to help with Data Visualization. Simply let me know the terms/ideas/data you'd like to track. I'm also into doing surveys and making inforgraphics out of the statistical data.

Bill and I want to reiterate that our main goal here is to have people check things out and then submit tickets (i.e. bugs) and issues using the issue tracker (http://code.google.com/p/or....

Now that the base code is running, things will run much faster if there are small, easily digestible tasks in a list. This is what the issue tracking system is good for. Make sure an issue hasn't already been listed though, because if I try to fix an issue that Bill has already fixed, he's going to lay the smackdown on me!

Laura,

My apologies. Orblogs has been a bit on hold lately due to some personal
issues on my end. You caught me about a day after I stopped- but I
forgot to write an article stating that.

We're still developing the site, but it's happening more slowly than we
thought. We'll have to examine this when we get the aggregator
functioning- one thing at a time.

My apologies for the delay.

Cheers,
-J

John,

Hope you don't us reaching out to you. I wonder if there is an appropriate place on your great aggregator site where Examiner.com might make an appeal to local experts? We are building local knowledge networks in markets across the U.S., including Portland -- which will also serve Oregon in general.

Here is the pitch, which we would love to spread to blogs/bloggers listed on your site, if possible:

***********************************

Know more than local reporters? Become the voice of your community and earn money for your knowledge and expertise as a freelance writer for Examiner.com.

Examiner is becoming the online destination for local information, news and events in major cities across the country. Our unique content is contributed by Examiners. These everyday people from a variety of backgrounds and professions are credible resources -- “go to” experts-- for local information, news, and events.

Examiners are independent contractors who choose what, when and where to write. They publish a minimum of four, brief articles per week, and are paid based on a set minimum rate, or “floor,” per 1,000 page views, this floor can fluctuate based on advertising and marketing gains. Examiner.com provides the training and tools needed to publish and promote articles.

If the idea of becoming an Examiner excites you, please set aside 20 minutes and go to:

http://www.examiner.com/ass...

Tell us how you as an Examiner can add value to your community.
Have other interests or know someone else that would make an excellent Examiner? We’re also recruiting for the following subjects:

1. Arts and Entertainment 2. Autos 3. Bars and Clubs 4. Business 5. Community 6. Education 7. Family 8. Fitness 9. Food and Drink 10. Games 11. Health 12. Home and Living 13. Jobs 14. News 15. Pets 16. Politics 17. Real Estate 18. Recreation 19. Relationships 20. Restaurants 21. Shopping 22. Spirituality 23. Sports 24. Technology 25. Travel

Thanks!

I think Ignoregon looks great! How can it be leveraged for orblogs.org? Looks like it has everything that is needed...just some visual work and bam, its done.

Agree?

I don't know if I'm blushing or if I'm simply still drunk.

1300 should be no problem, BarFly on average pushes 4 times that amount, and I usually have 10 or 20 gigs to spare every month. I can siphon that off if needed.

Can't wait to see what you guys have cooking. BigBark looks awesome, far superior than anything my half assed coding could cook up.

This whole post was pointless. Thanks for all the pointlessness.

(Did I do it right? Pointless=useful and informative, right? It's the new 133tspeak?)
