[Cc-webedit] website - swoop and beyond

[Alistair Alexander]

I had a chat with Jon today about plans for the website over the next  
couple of days and during the rest of the camp.

Now that we have got this amazing website we all really want to make  
the most of it during the camp with video, radio, articles, blog posts  
and pics . We want to aim to have something new on the website every  
day - and it would be good to have a brief website meeting every  
morning to plan the day ahead.

This is what we were thinking....

Wednesday During the Day

The site will be updated the site from midday as things get under way  
with - probably sporadic - swoop reports,

We may even have the odd "breaking swoopflash" for any significant  
developments.

We'll get a final swoop report just as soon as all our eagles have  
landed.

It would be great to get on the website a good pic of the (actual)  
site as soon as its secure. If any of you are around at that time  
please take a pic and email it to website at climatecamp.org.uk. But  
please check - i'd suggest with the meetings group or one of the  
huddles - that it's safe and OK to do so.

We also want to set up a map reference from the front page as soon as  
we can.

Later on wednesday

We'll put up the swoop vid on the homepage as soon as its ready - and  
technically possible.

By late afternoon we'd also really like to get some blog posts from a  
few random swoopers - how their day went etc. 3 or 4 swoop stories  
would be fine - we probably can't cope with many more - but that would  
really add to our day 1 coverage.

Thursday

We'd really like to have an initial website meeting on Thursday  
morning - (how about 10am?).

It would be great to have at least one person from each of these  
groups represented:
Media makers
Media liaison
Photographers
Radio
Tec
Meetings

We thought the focus of the website on thursday should be all about  
building the camp from the ground up - pics, reports, video of  
marquees going up, wind turbines, toilets.

We could also have something on the opening plenary.

Personally, i think it would also be great to have the jobshop online  
as a call out - we need carpenters, cooks, candlemakers etc - I think  
that would give a great sense of what the camp is all about and it  
could persuade people who are thinking about coming to get off their  
arses.

Anyway these are our (or in some places my) suggestions - all comments  
welcome, but there's probably not much time for email discussions  
tomorrow, so we can pick this all up on Thursday.

Hasta la swooptoria siempre!
