Hi, I have been making some updates to the LAU guide at it's new home http://linux-audio.com. 1: I have added Google ads as a temporary solution and made a few tweaks to the content. In just a couple of days we have already received clicks so that is a promising start. Adsense provides a breakdown of the different sites so I will be able to keep track of how much income is generated by this project and feed it back to the community as things progress. I want to make the site as interactive as possible so if anyone has suggestions for new functionality that integrates the content we are all creating into the LAU Guide which makes use of jquery, html5, A/V, etc... that would be helpful. I'll attempt to make any components that are built reusable for other sites. I am thinking that a good way to get things moving is to use the ad revenue from Google to fund development of the best ideas. ex. soundcloud, myspace, open samples, software of the month, etc... 2: There is also a paypal donate button so if you feel like contributing cash instead of elbow grease or brainwaves that option is now easily accessible. 3: I have created a new account for "linuxaudio" at Pinterest and linked to the facebook, twitter and pinterest pages on the home page now. Please click the various "share" buttons and retweet as much as possible so we can increase the SEO ranking and traffic. I suggest that anyone else with a website should consider adding those buttons to their pages so it is easy for readers to share information across our channel. 4: I have only tested the recent changes with chrome because I am a bit busy right now. So if anyone sees any layout issues with other browsers please let me know. -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
