i am going to experiment with a `Sticky` or `Hot topic` strategy that will highlight a few stories that are important or topical for that day. This may cause confusion to feed readers, but i will try to restrict the number of hot topics to only one or two.
If there are any problems or have suggestions just post them here or drop me a PM.
You can simply embed videos into the video section on this site.
But now, you can Easily Post videos to the offsite Astronomy Section. You can use a browser shortcut to quickly submit videos you discover on the Internet to the offsite Astronomy Video section.
Astronomy Bookmarklet
A bookmarklet is a special link that you can place in your browser's bookmarks toolbar or menu. This link simplifies the process of bringing videos you've found on the Internet and posting them here at Astronomy.
Got content which you want to publish, check, or are you working for a PR-department and want to publish items on astronomy.activeboard.com? Send it to me via the Personal mail system, or simply post it into the Sorting office.
Just a reminder to say that some news updates and posts, for non registered users, will not showup immediately. Embargoed or information that needs verifying etc., will be posted to the members section first. Normally the delay will just be 24hours, before it is reposted to the normal section.
This is just a small link for beginners (or to remind people) on how to post to this site:
Using Emoticons/Smilies Most common emoticons are automatically replaced by a corresponding graphic in whatever text they appear. You can also specify a specific emoticon by picking it from the emoticons box, or entering it directly.
There are a few changes to report. The youtube video embedding has been expanded. You can now include videos from youtube, revver, veoh, myspacetv, metacafe and google video using the new [video=URL] tag. Just copy and paste the address of the video you want to include into the tag and you're set. Dailymotion is supported as well, but you need the proper embed code. As well, the RSS feeds will now support your custom domains and full text posts (rather than just previews).
