Perhaps some folks that have the time/inclination (I would be willing to do this) can take a particular previous thread (or part of a thread) and archive the pertinent information.
we could have a "My Threat Matrix" page (ala My Yahoo)
Does this mean it would be on Yahoo? I am hesitant to go to Yahoo because of the cookies. But if Yahoo is the best way to go, so be it. Excellent idea, please keep me posted.
The post lists that Flutters put together at: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1178024/posts?page=2780#2780 is exactly what we'd need to do to sort things (Flutters went through the thread and listed the post #s with particularly interesting content, with a short description of what each one was about).
I'm working to mock up a screen that shows how we'd do this and will post it to www.threatmatrix.info "shortly" (which in programming-speak means: anytime between now and a couple of weeks, LOL!) Note: there is nothing at threatmatrix.info now..it's just "reserved" for later.
BTW..what I was saying about Yahoo was only for example..I figured most people were familiar with how articles looked on "my Yahoo" - eg: broken down into nice sections, like: Top News Stories, Entertainment, Sports, etc..I was going to suggest we use this type of idea to have a similarly formatted page, with sections like Incidents, Chatter/Threats, Preparedness, Borders, etc. We would host all of this on our OWN website (www.threatmatrix.info), and Yahoo wouldn't be involved at all.
Of course, we'd continue to use FR just as we do now for the TM. The threatmatrix.info site would just be our "sorted, archived" version of it so that people who want to could easily search on content, sort by date, find things, etc.
I'll keep you guys posted with the latest, greatest and welcome any and all ideas/suggestions/etc!
Thanks, Oorang. I really appreciate you offering to help out with the archive idea.
