Nice new sticky feature! This KevsKnight guy must own this site or something. I take it the Digg feed only pulls Diggs he's Dugg?

btw: page went blank after login again just now. and it took me back to my profile instead of forum thread. but i digress.

Damn you and your blank page!! Must admit that I get them sometimes too. I think the site is just afraid of our awesomeness and gets nervous about showing the page. Could be it... :)

The news is crowd-sourced! Just go to the News page on the top nav menu, then look for "Submit News". That will walk you through the process. The reason they are all from me to begin with is that I wanted to "seed" things to get started. Add away!!

BTW - you realize that the news feature came from the Nu-PowWow at Cherry Creek that one night? Productive things really DO come out of those sessions... :)

If you see an article you like, be sure to Dig it by clicking Dig. That will send the cool stories to the top.

The way I was putting the stories in was I would take the first paragraph or so for the description. If you click the title of the story or the thumbnail, that will take you to the article on the remote site (like your blog). If you click "Read more...", that will just give you the full description.

That can be changed around. Let me know what you think!

Diggin' it ... Works like a charm! Was just a bit unclear that I needed to write the summary (or copy the first paragraph) in the article content field. Had you not explained, I think I might have pasted the entire article.

By adding an "Article Link" I assumed I would just be submitting the link. But I figured it out. Without explanation though, others may have to find that fountain of smart.

Sweet! All seems well. Just one thing. It doesn't appear that one can edit their entry after submission. Like to correct the typo in my link to the LiveLightly tour website.

Keep up the good work.

hmmm. I corrected that link. I will see if I can do an edit for the author. I have edit/delete functions as an admin.

Good to see articles by someone other than me!! :)
