1.U.S-
2.World-
3.Politics-
4.Health-
5.Entertainment-
6.Tech-(Idk about this one)
7.Travel-
8.Sports-

One thing I noticed about our thread is that it seems kind of random. Like the order that people post. So maybe we should all get the articles ready, then plan when to post them. And if some people aren't going to be on at that time they could give it to someone else, or just not post that day. I'll probably post about once a week, so that I don't run out of ideas too quickly.

And I think there was someone who just copied and pasted a really long article. It's cool if they aren't in the mood to report and just want to share, but a summery would be nice. Then just make that summary link to the entire article.

What do you guys think?

If you make a newspaper article, then you might as well make a new thread. If you make a new thread, it no longer becomes an article (of your newspaper).

i think the solution about everyone posting max. 2 posts a day where all articles are included is pretty good. you lose the randomness and you dont overpost the thread.
it is also easy and uncomplicated.
lets try it out a couple of days and then see what we can improve.

sorry for the double post just realized another point

i totally agree. i mean lots of people do not read papers because the articles are to long or written to complicated. it would be really cool if everyone on this paper would try to reproduce the article in his own words.
then we get a better flow in the articles for the people who read it, and the unimportant details are not rementioned, because if you forget about something during rewritting an article, than it could not be that important

Goumas and I will help out with the organization and such. We'll also help him answer questions, and people can ask us. Basically just so he doesn't have to handle all that type of stuff on his own. Thanks for the article in the other thread though =D
