Fantastic!<br><br>Well done Richard, well done Jon.<br><br>This sounds like a really good solution on all fronts.<br><br>E<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/8/20 Richard Braude <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:richard.braude@googlemail.com">richard.braude@googlemail.com</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Yo yo,<br><br>So, at last night's meeting, we drew up a list of requests from the media team for the new shiny website<br>
(if you haven't seen it yet, swing by <a href="http://climatecamp.org.uk" target="_blank">climatecamp.org.uk</a>).<a href="https://we.riseup.net/cc_media+btm/be-the-media-website-please-read+30709" target="_blank"></a><br>
<br>We said that we wanted, on the front page, and in order of priority:<br>1) Photo galleries<br>2) Video player<br>3) Radio player<br>4) a Twitter box which updates more frequently<br><br>I've posted this all to the discussion page below - can we try and keep it there please!<br>

1) Photos<br>web crew are talking to minimouse about this. Given that mike knows the ins and outs of all this, perhaps that could go in a separate email.<br><br>2) Video<br>as soon as the swoop video is ready, we change the main image on the front page, currently the cardboard style flyer, to the <a href="http://climatecamp.tv" target="_blank">climatecamp.tv</a> video player<br>
(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.<br>
<br>3) Radio<br>We make one of the 'highligh boxes' (those four boxes beneath the main image on the front page) to a radio player<br><br>4) Twitter<br>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.<br>
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?)<br><br>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: <a href="https://we.riseup.net/cc_media/blog+30803" target="_blank">https://we.riseup.net/cc_media/blog+30803</a><br><br>Anyway, comments and thoughts on the crabgrass please!<br>
