This may sound strange, but I am subscribed to no
newsletters. In fact, I had no idea such specific,
elegant newsletters even existed. I may add to the
rainstorm, whether that's bad or good...I don't actually
know.
In any case, I'm working on site that is to hopefully
serve as a hub for 2d game developers to share their
scripts and thoughts freely, gaining access to "the
restricted sections" of the site as they contribute (and
yes, this is inspired by Pagemaster.) and as such, the
site will become a library over time.
People can take a penny, leave nothing, or give a roll of pennies and never take any pennies. People should have as much or as little access as they wish. The best thing about this idea I think is when users sign up for their "library
cards" they will actually receive something that
functions like one in digital form. (I may try to look
into making physical cards which I have designed
already! but I still have to work out the logistics of
that..., haha.)
When they have cards, they will instead
of "chcking out books", be able to create the books
that they want, similar to wikipedia's pdf/book system.
(Everything hosted on site will be open source too, to
be used for whatever purposes including commercial.)
And here's where the ourobouros comes back to bite, I
swear this isn't a tangent.
I think a newsletter would be a better place to start
for me to prototype this idea. WEven though the site is
under construction already. It will be in that state
for a long time too, as this is my first time developing
web content, instead of games! But I could do this.
Thanks for sharing! (I don't self promote in posts, but
if you are interested, just see my profile.)
Really enjoying the content of this website and am glad to have found it.
- groestl 8y agoYou might want to edit your post and remove all the newlines, it's got a very weird formatting (at first I thought it was a poem).
- the_librarian 8y agoI'm sorry, again. (I'm doing better than yesterday, yikes, look at that one!) I though doing a line break in between every line would make it better, and it did, but man it definitely looks like a poem. I will do my best to get this right! Apologies, seriously. So few rules on the formatting is throwing me off.
- the_librarian 8y agoThanks for pointing that out, honestly. I actually understand what it wants from me now (as far as text goes and not links dear god I made a mess with that.) I edited it and I think it resembles the others now, so if it's okay let me know and I'll try to fix it up if it isn't!
