We need your help
Monday, 18 June 2007 by Jacob TomawI have wanted tfl to grow for a long time. However I have not had the time I would have liked to really nurture it. A few weeks ago I finally pestered Joscelynn enough to join me and I think it has done a lot of great things for the site. Most people agree she is a better blogger than I.
Now the next step. Jos told me last night that she wishes there were more participation from our readers. I have being trying to find ways to do this for a while. I think if there is more interaction with our current readers, the site will look (and be) more alive and more new readers will join in. To this end I have added a widget on the right rail to advertise the recent comments. I encourage you to subscribe to the comments feed to see what everyone is saying in your aggregator, but this is a nice way to see how people are reacting when you check out a new post.
I think we have a good mix of topics here. However to be more focused and more regular, perhaps we need to specialize. I think a healthy mix of personal information along with our take on politics, economics, and philosophy. (BTW, our take is they are inseparable and pretty much indistinguishable.) Do you think this is the right direction? Is there something more you would like to see?
Finally, if you want a voice to react to something on or off tfl. Anything really. Email us or leave a comment. We would love to have guest writers and even full compatriots someday.
