So it’s been said before, but it bears repeating: Send in content!  Maintaining the club’s Internet presence is easy for me, while some might find the notion of handling software updates and server registrations about as foreign as Morse code (okay, bad example :> ).  However there is one thing which I am no good at all at doing, and that’s writing stories.  I read Bob’s column every month in the Beacon, and often times wonder where he gets inspiration to write and how he seems to do it with ease.  That is where all of you come in.

I’m sure that Bob’s not the only person who can put words together on a page and make them look good, and that’s something which any website needs – CONTENT!  It’s one thing to have it tell you the history of the club and mention an upcoming event, but without a steady stream of stories, articles and content the website will look stagnant.

People always assume for some reason that I want/need help running the site itself.  Just the contrary, the site is fine, but I need articles to go on it!  How can you help, then?  Sign up for an account here if you haven’t already, and drop me an email to say you want your account to be able to submit stories.  Then write, write, write!  Once you’ve written a story or two, send me a note to say it’s ready and you want it published, and I’ll put it up on the front page.  If we get enough stories that there’s a surplus, I may delay some of them so that we have a steady stream of new articles instead of a burst.  But first we need new content.  So put on your berets, pour a glass of wine, play some soft jazz (or whatever inspires you) and submit an article or two!

Thanks!
