[Press Release] Current Events Monitor
On behalf of Current Events Monitor:
Blogshares is a rich game that this player has enjoyed thoroughly. And it is well understood that the documentation needs to worked on.
Currently, the editors are working on putting together a bigger, better, and more easily accessible documentation system and we would love input from new players and old hats alike.
What do you need to know? What isn't explained clearly in the current files? How can we get new players into the game quickly?
Join us in the BlogShares Forums at this thread
http://blogshares.com/yabbse/index.php?board=20;action=display;threadid=1655
and offer your suggestions.
Any input is kindly welcomed, and much appreciated.
OT Note: Front-Page BlogShares Ebay ads suck and
are illegal.

[Press Release] Leabhar Filíochta : Book of Poetry
On behalf of Leabhar Filíochta : Book of Poetry:
I may not be a particularly good poet and I'll be the first to admit that... I am, after all, my own worst critic, but I haven't had any sort of formal training in writing poetry, so perhaps I don't follow all of the "rules" of poetry, from an academic point of view. Still, I know from what others have told me, that they enjoy my writings. For me, that's all that really matters... that I enjoy writing poems and maybe you'll enjoy reading them.

[Press Release] Alan Dean
On behalf of Alan Dean:
Oddly (for a programming blog) my most popular article for browser-based views is a post I wrote about the BBC drama "Threads":
http://dotnetjunkies.com/WebLog/alan.dean/archive/2003/11/01/3048.aspx
But then, I suppose this is due to the power of Google. After all, my blog is the very next link after the BBC itself on this search:
