I'd like to see a lot about christian dj culture all across america. Like, what's going on in my area, how can I get involved, etc. etc.

1) tell us what's going on in your area and we'll report it. 2) As far as we know... not much is going on. 3) I know you're in Iraq, but um... you may need to start something yourself.

sorry probably the wrong place to post this
but will the new zine be more blog style? i mean rather than waiting for the end of the month for articles to come out they could come out during the month. from different writers?
Im geusing this is what you guys already got planned? would be cool

Not planning that at all. We want to keep it issue centered.
Tell ya what though... sell me on the idea.

I think doing the combination of the 2 works great! Really put in a lot of effort into the zine, but have periodic blogs come out also. To help keep attention and maybe attract more foks if you are righting about relevant topics.

I suppose what im saying is that the zine has been around since before blogs and its seems like a blog would really enhance its use. Not for the sake of change. One main reason is that articles could be posted when they were ready and read straight away rather than posting all articles together and having alot to read in one go. Yes we can come back and read articles in stages but why not update new articles through the month keeping the zine nearly as fresh and updated as the forums. Main reason i come back to the site every day is for the fresh content on the forums. The zine is already currently a bit like a blog in that you get the first paragraph and then click to get the full story. The great thing about the zine is the amount of work and research that goes into the articles. So im saying keep the themes etc and the idea just bring out at different time through the month. I must admit i am thinking along the lines of beatportal and djtechtools. Im not saying to clone what they doing because tasty has a different beast. But use the same idea of bringing articles out through the month Sorry i only thought of this today i know you were are asking for suggestions like this ages ago. And maybe now is not the time to do it.

Well, with my job and lack of resources I'm not really in a position to start anything, but maybe just a promotion section to let people talk about what they're doing to spread the christian edm scene...i dunno. Just brainstorming. That's what this is all about right?

yeah, that's what it's about. My point though is you live somewhere right? Network. Find some other Christians in your area. Invite them over for a house party or something... even just dinner. You can make things happen. If you want things to happen, you're going to have to do it yourself.

To help keep attention and maybe attract more foks if you are righting about relevant topics.  I have been thinking about adding some blogs. The zine just doesn't need to become another blog. Getting the articles written by volunteers is hard enough when you do it 6 times a year, but to put an article out each month? Wow... that would really hurt. A seperate blog might work though.

But couldnt the volunteers just post it themselves? Thats what i mean rather than having a whole load of work to do at in one go it could just be as an when. It could have a number of official bloggers for those who run the site something like that.
You will know better than me but i think beatport has official bloggers and then sometimes good enough articles get posted.
Ok im done trying to sell it!

You will know better than me but i think beatport has official bloggers and then sometimes good enough articles get posted. Beaportal has staff bloggers and then anybody can submit anything. We MIGHT be able to let anybody submit anything in addition to the zine, but that can't be the basis for everything. We'd also need an editor to weed through the blog posts.
