Additional Extensions: MyBlog, JomComment
Custom Development: None (unless changing the color of the MyBlog dates count)
Well, I tried to be like many of you and do a '24-hour' site starting from scratch, but I ran out of time...so not much content yet.
I'm still adding articles and blogs, working on a YouTube gallery to show political ads (like the infamous "Willie Horton" and "Daisy"); I need to clean up all the text and strengthen the writing (setting up MyBlog and fixing some issues was the timesink, so no time spent writing); I am finishing up a slick petitioning system I'm making with Fabrik, a report system for people to report attacks; I have a lot to do still, to be sure.
I do have 3 validation errors that are budding me, 2 from the Google search I used to replace the core search. The table error is bugging me, so if any wc3 gurus have any ideas...
I have an IE error on the home page (the 'inject' error), which I think is due to so few articles...popped up once I gutted all the errors from the launcher and hasn't gone away yet...think once I add a few more, it should be gone.
My logo sucks, but given my lack of graphic ability and creastivity, I threw it together in a few minutes, so welcome ideas for that, too...and any others you have to offer.

For less than 24hr
, and very nice idea, and AWESOME domain. You could make the site more broad on content beyond political views. Just a thought, because it might get slow after the election. Then again politics always has gossip ;D
There seems to be an empty module that shows up after clicking an article. It is located right under the comments. - Last Edit: 16 years 4 months ago by LiEs.

Agree, wholeheartedly!
IN fact, you took an idea I was mulling around, did more & better with it too. Nice work!

- I love this site. It has some serious potential for Palin supporters to jump on board. I can't wait to see what it develops into after a few more days. You may want to integrate something like factcheck.org in there as well. I use fact check information on my site right now because of all of the crap people post. I love it!

Thanks...sort of backed into it when I saw that "Palin" was the #1 search term out there, so I was trying some domain names with no luck, moments after her announcement even! Man, those guys are quick...all were taking and somehow I made the leap from support sarrah palin dot com to this domain name.
I have no direction, conceiving it only a few days ago, so I'll take a step back and decide what to do with it...clueless.
...but shouldn't be a shortage of content to get caught up during this election cycle...getting quite nasty out there.

- What I like about it is that, unlike most political sites, it has potential to run for a long time, not just this political race (what's left of it). It's also quite bi-partisan in nature, so you wont get the same type of stigma that comes along with most online political blogs. I can see a pretty good future with this one. I'll link to you from my site. I get a bunch of political readers, and have a bunch of crazy bloggers that write on my site, so I'm sure that they would appreciate another place to gather info and read about the opinions of others.

Hey nice job Terp!
Have you looked at joomclan.com/index.php?option=com_conten...tegory&id=1&Itemid=3 as something to help with the content population? Looks to me like the *perfect* complement to Tribune's uber cool RokMiniNews.
