CotC Blog Discussion (Updated)
This post is a placeholder for discussion of ideas and requests for the Carnival of the Capitalists blog that will replace the current static pages, adding bells and whistles. I may update this post with my own thoughts later, but for now it’s here to provide a link for comments in a notice on the Carnival of the Capitalists page.
Update:
Here is some of what we have in mind for the Carnival of the Capitalists blog that will replace the static pages:
A massive blogroll of business and economics blogs.
A separate, more prominent blogroll giving visibility to blogs that have been hosts.
Obviously a listing, easily findable, of future hosts.
Obviously a listing, easily findable, of past locations.
As best we can, recreation posts of past editions of CotC that have disappeared from the blogosphere.
At a polite, as yet undetermined interval following publication of each edition CotC, a mirror of it at the CotC blog. Perhaps two months afterward, for instance, so it serves an archival/backup purpose without detracting from the bulk of the traffic the CotC post will ever generate for the host.
Obviously info on CotC, on hosting, and so forth, probably more comprehensive and easy to focus in on exact answers than has been the case.
Possibly features like votes for favorite recent posts or hosts.
Possibly a submission form that will supplement the others out there.
Links to other carnivals and/or carnival home/info pages.
Links to online business publications and resources.
An easy to remember and find location for announcements regarding CotC, such as last minute host changes or delays in publication.
Possibly more. Any suggestions?
