Not really my idea. But some of the members on this forum have decided to extract the best of this forum and make it into something!

That something may be:

- an online magazine
- a print magazine
- a blog
- a website

I would love to drive this enthusiasm and believe that I have enough bravery and resources to make this happen.

Let's start brainstorming!

Do you suppose all this will improve the posts on this forum? Or doesn't that matter?

Of course it will improve posts, if you want to be publised and part of the mag you had better up your game.

.

Oh, never fear. I'll just go along dully posting, and trying to deal with philosophical issues like fatalism, and knowledge. I'll leave the "mag" (what happened to the "azine" bit?) to those who find philosophy too boring.

And on a side note, i am a little tried of people complaining that the posts here are not 'good' enough or that people here are not good enough, what is wrong with you? either aid them to be better or stop complaining.
I know lets wave a magic wand and make everyone as talented as you are.
Life would be pretty boring if we were all the same.
Quite frankly it is all about new partiscipation and getting new members interested and them not being afriad of judgements such 'not good enough', when for all we know it might not be just the person who had written something but the people who are reading it.
Be bloody grateful there are people here at all.

I did not call you dull,
This is a way to make a philosophy forum less boring and is not a diversion it is an inclusion and actually makes philosophy more current and more accessible and even exciting.
I was hoping you would have your own collumn 'the world according to kennethamy' or take the pick of the beat, you know you could.
Why are you so quick to dismiss things?
why am i trying to still reach you?
You've made it perfectly clear you cant be touched.

As I said, I don't find the forum boring at all. (But I find philosophy interesting). And I think that if philosophy were more current it would shock me (sorry. I could not resist).

My family motto is: Nolle me tangere.

What do you mean "if the philosophy were more current it would shock you"?

Let's start brainstorming!

For a start, we need:

Regular Editors - to choose the material, edit the material, submit the material

Supplementary Editors - those who like to contribute in their own time

Artists - to make the website/magazine come alive

Legals - if we get into trouble

IT consultant - if we get big

Financial adviser - to finance this whole project

Cheerleaders - to cheer us all up!

Anything else? Who do you want to be?

Experimental website: Philosophy Mag

As someone that has run a newspaper as an editor it chief, all of these things are nice, but without contributors, none of the other positions matter. I know my way around InDesign, but I don't have a clue with Dreamweaver--although I could figure it out.

I could actually get started on design work if people are actually interested in this. It may actually help me get back into a skill I rarely use anymore, but do not want to forget. A good way to get moving on this would be a prototype template.

Should we have a vote at which threads are worth writing about and rereading? Otherwise, I will decide myself.

As long as it is unbiased which means you cannot pick your own thread.
Sure kick us off not sure how long i can play for though.
