I've been following your site from the start from the Arc Forum and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised when I took a look at it today. The design is so much more pleasing now than it was originally--which is not too say the original design was bad, quite the contrary. I'm not really much of a sports fan, but the site does intrigue me since you decided to go with Arc to create it. Not sure if you're holding it secret or not (which would be totally understandable), but if not, I would love to see the source code for the site seeing as how I am currently learning Arc as well and I love comparing my ideas with others to spot better ways of doing things.
Either way, code closed or open, the site does look great and I think its a really great idea. Good work!
- antiismist 19y agoI owe a lot to pg for making news.arc open, and to the people who run Anarki as well. Some things I am thinking about: - it is harder to open-source something than to deploy the site, because w/ open-sourcing, both the site and the code have to be in good shape, whereas with just deploying a site, it is not as big a deal if the code has some quirks. In other words, there are some deviations from Arc best practices that I want to take care of. - I am thinking about whether there is an opportunity to have an open-source digg-killer based on Arc, and if so, what that would look like. Anyway, if you want to work something out then shoot an email to: pageonetimes@idoh.com
