Re: newmars twitter

I like it. I was hoping to do a Wordpress integration of the forums once we moved over to the Mars Society website, but that's taking a lot longer than expected.

Really cool.

Wordpress integration of the forums?

Can't wait for the google site search, message copy and move, topic merge, moved shadow deletion, and youtube integration. Oh and image resizing would be nice too if you have extra time

I'll shoot an email to cIclops for access to that.

Re: newmars twitter

I imagine that this would go better with the blog than with the forums, per se, given that the post rate is too high on the forums to put a significant amount of things on the twitter.  Though we could perhaps have a link to the most active (non-meta?) thread of the week if we wanted to.

Though I generally think that a simple team of moderators is sufficient for newmars, this is something in which the Editorial Board certainly could be useful.  Maybe a newmars facebook to go with it, even.
