Grex Coop Conference

Item 296: Where do we advertise?

Entered by veek on Sat Nov 27 14:59:31 2010:

This the thread where you post links to places/web-sites/communities 
that we need to get in touch with - where we dish out flyers 
(electronics version included). It hast to be specific BUT no one must 
jump the gun and distribute the stuff in a sporadic fashion - It has to 
be done simultaneously. It would be preferable if you also decided 
beforehand what you are going to say by posting that too.. (suggestions 
are welcome)
If you feel someplace is inappropriate, feel free to say so (but first 
visit the link).

**This will give me some idea about how to make the flyers more 
attractive and noticeable eg: you could decide to post one in your 
local bakery - might make sense to highlight the fact that we offer 
free/cheap web-design and personal home-pages, in which case we would 
need to make it less the hacker box..
The flyer can be found here: http://arbornet.org/~veek/Grex%20Web/flyer/
index.html please check again BUT don't print!! just preview and 
content! Dan said 100MB disk space/user.. what else??

Example: CrackZ__@hotmail.com
http://www.woodmann.com/crackz/

He's the site-admin. A lot of the site is content and it's very 
comprehensive - wiki, board-software. Thing is we don't compete with 
them, since we offer Unix access - so i'm thinking of targetting
9 responses total.

Veek, can you change the dues on this flyer? With the recent voting,
it's  been changed to $2.00/month or $18/year. If you pay for at least 3
months  at a time, you'll be able to vote in elections.

are there any advantages to membership besides voting..? outbound 
traffic? irc-bots?

what about an unemployment exchange.. is there an angle to that.. I
could  do a couple of template-resumes that double as a website? I mean
it's  already done.. I'll just use the flyer and stick a photo, remove
the  borders.. and the body is your resume.. BUT how many pages.. what
kind of  fields would you need.. do students looking for a job visit
such places..  what do their resumes look like. It should be made easy
enough to quickly  do and yet look great.. do ppl print resumes back to
back or on separate  sheets?

In the new version cited in #0 the inner frame (around "Services") 
extend beyond the main outer frame for some window widths. That is, as I 
expand the window, the inner frame is initially within it, but then goes 
out and back in as I widen the window. However the print preview keeps a 
proper format.

that sounds about right :p (if it's for browsing) apparently for a 
table, if the window size is made way too small for proper rendering 
(when all hope is lost for that table) it just sticks out.. most all 
elements do that.. it shouldn't stick out on a reasonable sized window.

As I expand the window from 0% of the screen width, I don't get the full 
content in the window until about 23%. It stays OK until 56%, when the 
inner frame leaps out to the right. The inner frame goes back in at 77%, 
then jumps out again at 85% and stays out to the full screen width. 
Rather peculiar.....
