Hi,
let me throw an idea in the group: What would you think if we added a blog component to the European website? That way we could make it a bit more interactive instead of just a portal, and we could actually use it to show successes around Europe. I would like to allow people from all contests to write blog posts (directly or through moderation) and make it that way easier to maintain. The blog would be in English, to keep it simple, but could link to national blogs for local language versions.
Please shoot on it, and let me know if it is nothing good :)
Best,
Lodewijk
Hi Lodewijk,
I believe it's a great idea to use the European website for this kind of communication! At the same time, we should probably set up a twitter account and establish a hashtag (#WLM2011 ?) so we can have one of those twitter-boxes on there as well.

I think it's a very good idea. The European website has a simple URL and it always my starting point when i want to see material for WLM... I guess other people think it is useful as well. Anyway, do you have some statistics about visits to the website? It would be good to monitor them, especially when the blogpost thin is on.

Just to note that some local websites have a prominent link on the homepage to wlm-eu and others have none or not so prominent.

Lodewijk, I think it is an excellent idea, if only as a meter to see how well the various national projects are coming along during the month and to highlight areas that may need help. There may be a lot of blog posts, but it would be great to have an English central reporting spot, so that both during the competition and afterwards, others in and outside Europe may become inspired by this effort.
