Fantastic!

Well done Richard, well done Jon.

This sounds like a really good solution on all fronts.

> We said that we wanted, on the front page, and in order of priority:
> 1) Photo galleries
> 2) Video player
> 3) Radio player
> 4) a Twitter box which updates more frequently

> I've posted this all to the discussion page below - can we try and keep it

> 1) Photos

> 2) Video
> as soon as the swoop video is ready, we change the main image on the front
> page, currently the cardboard style flyer, to the climatecamp.tv video
> player
> (This also deals with our discussion about static images). The reason not
> to put the video player up now, is simply that it probably wouldn't have the
> right kind of content up there, as there isn't a call-out video.
>
> 3) Radio
> We make one of the 'highligh boxes' (those four boxes beneath the main
> image on the front page) to a radio player
>
> 4) Twitter
> Using the official Twitter feed (the updates of what everyone is twittering
> about the camp) would mean that the page would take a while to load.
> Atm, the feed we're using updates every half hour, but it's easy enough to
> make that much less. (Jon mentioned every 5 minutes, but perhaps that could
> even be every minute?)

> Finally, showing stuff from other people's blogs was also discussed, though
> I feel that's really part of an ongoing discussion probably best continued
> here: https://we.riseup.net/cc_media/blog+30803

> Anyway, comments and thoughts on the crabgrass please!
