Announcement !
Sunday, March 25, 2007
Ben and i were thinking of starting an archi site for all SP archi students. Meaning yr 1 to yr 3 will join in. Its to set up an online community of students so that they can participate in the forum and help each other in their work. We won't really know what the implications and possible results are but i think its worth a try.
We want to make it big, a real site with real admins maintaining the site even after we graduate so that even freshies next yr and the next next year can also join in. The main purpose is to get as much members as possible, and right now we want to start out small.
I think ben's afraid of rejection if he voice this out so i will=)
Of course if we want to make it big, we got to invest in server with proper hosting and of course our personal own domain. etc. www.sparchiforums.com/net/org
There's currently 8 of us. And if we can get more people to join in the initial start up stage, the cost for setting up can be greatly offset. It does come down to only a few dollars a year. Just save up on ONE meal or something.
Here's a webby promotion for your reference. (ITS ENDING SOON!)
http://www.poznet.com/special.htmlI hope right now you should be more concerned about commitment and the contributions you want to put in this. I know everyone's got their own life and interest. Why not make this one of your interest ? When we get more members, we might even earn from the *cough* ads *cough*. But ultimately its getting the site up running and active.
Due to some technicalities, the previous forum was closed and discontinued. Setting up this forum can keep everyone in touch and closer to the architecture scene even after we graduate from the school.
Hope i don't sound too harsh on this, cause its gonna be all up to your interest and commitment in the end to make this work. So think through it before you tell us you want in. I think its time for expansion liao. Do drop your point of views in the comment box and indicate whether you are AGAINST or FOR this idea. Try not to be influenced by other's opinion even though its really human nature.
