Nobody shall know the hour or the day

…except us, that is.
We have both really enjoyed reading the comments in the thread announcing our impending shut down. Some of your comments have been very touching and have affirmed some of what we have been trying (albeit clumsily) to accomplish with this little old site. We see that a new site has […]

All good things…

Monday, August 13th, 2007

When we first started this site way back in February 2003, we never imagined the way that it would morph and develop to ultimately become what it is today. What started out as a means for us to share and workshop some of our writing has turned into a site focussed much more around […]

duplicate accounts

Wednesday, May 16th, 2007

We are (as always) trying to tidy things up around signposts. One thing we want to sort out is that we have identified a number of duplicate accounts - probably because people forgot their details and signed up again or had trouble with the regsitration process. If you think you might have more […]

Commenting - a reminder

Thursday, May 10th, 2007

Information for new commenters, and a reminder for old commenters. We have been having a few hiccups with over-zealous spam software lately. Here is my comment from a thread:

community building

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

Heh. For the last couple of days everyone I know has been talking about the same thing - making their picks for the SuperCoach comptetition. And so I thought to myself, how could I find 15 other people willing to engage in such a competition for my own craven amusement? So naturally […]

playing again

We are playing around with the look of signposts again..
Ah the joy!

forums

Saturday, February 10th, 2007

Dan and I have been thinking for a while about the value of implementing forums at signposts. We would like to know your thoughts.
The idea would be for the forum to be run on the same lines of the signposts blog. It would operate on a subdomain of signposts and be accessed through the signposts […]

playing

Saturday, February 3rd, 2007

We are playing around with some adjustments to signposts at the moment.
Obviously, the color scheme is in a state of flux at the moment. In time, hopefully all the functionality that we had with the old site will be available.
One of the key features we need to get back is the recent comments as we […]
