Introducing my new site - PaulBulletin.com - YOUR suggestions please?

[itshappening]

Weren't you the one saying we should promote RPF more on twitter to get more people in here?

Twitter is one thing but we dont want the right-wing smear machine to be watching us and reporting on our activities i.e the same people who attack Ron non-stop

We are usually the first link up when you google Ron Paul by date, and likely Rand as well. Let those who would be constructive find us.

suggestion: add a favicon

[Chester Copperpot]

Yeah I like it alot too... I really like that youve mixed the videos in with the headlines.... There used to be an old site kinda like this.. ronpaulforpresident2008.com but the site owner never maintained it or kept it up to date...

Where's the Isagenix advert? Your website is the best placement for it, and can directly fund the operations.

I like it. The key to it being interesting though will be frequent relevant updates.

Yeah, I wish there were a way to automate it, it consumes quite a bit a time, several hours a day.

The problem with automating it is that there wouldn't be such discretion on which stories get posted

I think another forum member (Feelgood?) tried this with thefreedomreport.com or freedomreport.com and I don't think he got the hits required to bother to keep it updated.

I like it, looks like a good way to quickly get to the latest news.

The only suggestion I'd have is to either move up or add links near the top for the "submit a story", "subscribe", and Facebook icon if possible. They don't really stand out down there and look like they'd be easy to miss.

Also, adding a Facebook like button or the "like box" would allow someone to quickly like your page without even having to go to it.

Do NOT link to RPF, this is supposed to be a secret hive. We don't want the MSM reading threads and tracking what we're doing and reporting it.

Too late, they do that anyway. I've seen screenshots of this place on CNN, FNC, and MSNBC before. I've seen this place quoted on the air. And I've seen reporters coming here asking to interview people.

I actually kind of like it too.

I would recommend a daily police state section like we get from AF on here.

AF really helped open my eyes to police brutality and abuse.

Perhaps you could do the same to some civilians.

they do, though.

 

[jmdrake]

Yes, exactly.

Well I wanted to make it simple, and familiar to people. I agree that Drudge's format isn't that great, but again, people tend to be accustomed to it.


http://www.Paper.li was suggested to me as a possible format, I'm still investigating it.

Paper.li is indeed interesting. I like that it's responsive (works on smartphones, tablets and desktops without re-configuring). What I want is something that will let me have an online newspaper, but then automatically covert it to print. Looking to ultimately create papers to distribute around town like one of the myriad of free newspapers out there.

I think you should hire Uncle Emmanuel Watkins to blog on paulbulletin.

Sounds like a good idea for a WordPress theme. A theme that looks like a newspaper and also exports your site in such a way that it works for the printer. One might imagine that there could be a decent market for a theme like that.

 

[asurfaholic]

i like it. good work.

I would take your name off the top though, seems cocky.

But otherwise, its great.

He will clarify what is Our Civil Purpose.

Politico reporters have come here a few times.
