Think it needs to be a balance of swooping and camping. There's no swoop
without a camp, so we need to tell people what the camp is too.

This one needs fleshing out. So far I know what Copenhagen is, but I've
no idea what the climate camp "strategy" on it is.

It sounds like there's not going to be video content til the actual
camp, so we shouldn't be promoting it until the actual camp. I'd say
when the camp comes along we should give video and radio each a slot.

Yeah, it is a worry that content may be a bit sparse to start with, but
I don't think we should just write content to fill space. I think we
should just start with one blog post - "Welcome to our new site!", and
try to get a new post in each day after that.

Media Circus is currently being pulled from a Google News search of
"climate camp". Seems to work quite nicely. Twitter is also integrated.
BTW note that I haven't set up caching yet, so sometimes the home page
is a bit slow. Will definitely get to that before launch.

Press releases should be just a case of getting a load of historical
ones from media - can someone sort this out please? I am going to
integrate it into the blog software so they can add press releases each
time as a new "blog post" (don't worry, it'll be separate from the
actual blog.)

> Will Hyperactive be ready to feed the frontpage?

It's already set up. I am hoping to integrate the main site CSS before
launch but may not have time. We could do with some content there but it
ought to be coming from people - any ideas? We could just accept that
it'll be sparse to start with.

> And the latest tweet from twitter/facebook etc

Already integrated.
