A Poet in Sight
May 9th, 2007
After about a year of coming up with the original idea and with the idea taking on many different forms, but never actually becoming anything, I have finally decided to start working on the idea of a poetry site again. I’m not really going to give many details about it here, but if you have ever read my blog on MySpace there is a good chance you’ll know what I’m speaking of. All that I’ll really say about the site is that its focus will be on a dynamic community for poets with a bit of a twist. The reason for deciding to start this idea back up is that I finally think the content management system that I want to use for the site is finally at a point where I can use it for the type of site I have in mind.
Some may remember the original domain name that I was going to use, but I will no longer use that domain name for the idea. I have picked out a new domain name, though can not register it because it is take, but it will expire in a few months and I hope that I’ll be able to pick it up. If the domain gets extended I’ll just have to come up with a new name or try to purchase it from the owner. So this means I’ll have a good several months to work on this idea, which is good because I figure I’ll have a good amount of work to get the site how I want it to look/work.
If this site actually comes to light and it ends launching, I’ll have a lot of work to do post launch because I still have to figure out how to market it just right for the projected audience. I think the beginning will be hard, but if I can manage to get a community to grow out of it then I’ll be pretty well set.
