Hi,
it's a great idea to integrate the AGS blog into the AGS homepage like it is already the case. But I have some ideas how this can possibly improved even further.
First of all, SSH and Dualnames (I think you're the ones running the blog), do you feel up to managing the AGS news, i.e. accepting and reviewing suggestions for articles for publication in the AGS blog? Example: a developer added new features or a new port to AGS and searches for testers. How can he make an announcement?
If you are, I propose a few step to encourage getting more news from the community into the blog and onto the AGS homepage.
First, it seems like AGS blog posts are selected by hand for inclusion on the homepage. Why not include every blog post automatically by software?
Second, there should be a link or form for submitting articles both on the AGS homepage and the blog.
What do you think?
They are included "automatically by software". I think it's just that only posts with a certain tag are included. There's certainly no human involvement in getting them up on the homepage.
Ok, nice, then all that is needed is to tell people how to submit news. If that is welcomed.
While I am not the actual administrator of the blog, I'm willing to accept any articles anyone sends my way, if that's what you're suggesting here.
What do SSH and you think about putting a short description about submitting on the blog? A mail address or form and maybe some words about what kinds of articles you would like to receive?
I've added a submission link to the blog.
Nice, thanks!
