- Mike Moore's Online Portfolio
- Visually Deficient (In-progress work)
- My Flickr Gallery
- Brain Flood (My personal note-taking wiki)
Meet-up Notes:
(taken down in the official BaltoCo reporting pads!)
- What does Wikipedia not allow? Should we have a page that lists what BaltoCo allows, that Wikipedia doesn't? I think so!
- Other cities/places with similar sites:
- Davis, California
- Omaha, Nebraska
- Rochester, New York
- Boston, Massachusetts
- Pliny the Elder is a great example of how contributor's to this site could model themselves. (Write interesting stuff about Baltimore down and put it on the site, even when bathing, eating, sleeping, et cetera :-))
- How will we promote the site?
- Word of mouth! Tell your friends (enemies too?)
- We'll be on Google soon enough. But what about other search engines?
- Perhaps a feature in newspapers/radio stations (City Paper, WYPR).
- Slowness Movement
- Giving proper credit to artists/writers, creative content.
- Richard mentioned the soon to arrive Tattoo section, where credit would be given to:
- Who made the art?
- Who executed the art?
- Who photographed the art?
- Who is wearing the art?
- Richard mentioned the soon to arrive Tattoo section, where credit would be given to:
- Richard hosted 'Baltimore Collec-Triv'
- Contributors could visit the Maryland Room and find content in their Vertical Files
- Famous Firings?
- How could we help people break through the psychological barriers that exist as far as adding and editing content on the site?
- We could/should produce more user-friendly templates, help files
- Kate G. reccommended a FAQ/Frequently Asked Questions page. It think this would be outstanding to have
- We could look at the Burning Man 10 principles that exist around the idea of Participation vs. being a Spectator.
