[arg_discuss] Launch of ARGology! Wohoo!

[Christy Dena]

ARGology is LIVE!

 

Well, after churning away for a few weeks, the first round of ARGologists
have produced a website that will hopefully be a source of information and
inspiration to people keen to find out about ARGs. On the site now is:

This is a great effort, especially for very busy volunteers. I'm sure all of
the contributors welcome you feedback and ideas, either on this list or
directly via email. Also, fellow ARG SIGers, please consider the first round
of contributions as a starting point. If you don't agree with the content
provided, you don't necessarily have to change it. We can easily create new
pages within each category. Indeed, the more voices and views.the better.

 

Although the ARG SIG voted for .org AND .com, we only recently realized that
none of us had actually checked whether .com was available. Uncannily
enough, a French company had bought argology.com back in March. So, we never
could have had both URLs. Sorry for the mess up. But please note we have one
address in any publicity you may feel compelled to put out there. :-) 

 

I hope you're all happy with this effort, and take a moment to give a remote
<clap clap> to the ARGologists who worked so hard to get this happening. I
hope this site becomes a place where ARG SIGers, and anyone who is keen, can
find and contribute info on ARGs. 

 

A few ARG SIGers are at ARGFest and will launch it there too. But this
mini-remote-text-launch is for us. :-)

 

Best,

Christy
