Come one, come all -- take a look at my new, un-polished (BETA), Open Gaming
Resource Site -- The Open Gaming Exchange @ http://www.ogexchange.com
The site is currently bare bones, but with YOUR help I believe it can be
made into great place for Open Gaming Publishers, Gamers, Fans and Newbies
can get together to help the Open Gaming movement prosper.
I implore you to please visit the site, send me your comments, suggestions
and most importantly Submit Information about your resources @
http://www.ogexchange.com/SubmitResource.cfm -- I'll add information to the
Resource Listings and the Search engine as quickly as I can.
I am also currently offering FREE advertisement space to anyone who sends me
a (468x60) size banner and the URL to an site that supports Open Gaming.
You may submit more then one banner per site, if you would like to have
different banners for separate sections of your site, for different products
or for promotions.
To stem the tide of messages regarding the Content Library, initially only
the copyright holder of material may submit it to the system. Also the
content library will probably not come online until December/January as I am
waiting to see the results of the d20-XML eGroup's efforts to define an XML
specification for d20 information.
Resources available now include:
-- Sign up for a Free EMail account @ogexchange.com
-- A specialized Search engine that only indexes web sites that support Open
Gaming
-- News feeds from Open Gaming Publishers, and related industries
-- Open Gaming Resource Directory with listings for
----- Publishers
----- Personal Web Pages
----- Books/Modules
----- and other Resources for the avid Open Gamer
And in the near future you can expect to see:
-- Mailing Lists
-- Community Discussion Forums
-- Free project hosting for people developing Open Gaming content
-- Additional Free EMail addresses (@d20exchange, @d20resources, etc)
-- Online Web Based utilities for your gaming pleasure (Dice Rollers, Random
Generators, etc)
-- Content Library where Open Gaming Publishers can post, and exchange
---- Spells
---- Items, Magical and Mundane
---- Maps
---- Campaign Settings
---- Monsters
-- File Libraries and possibly FTP to share gaming Utilities, Character
Sheets, etc.
Sincerely,
Michael Cortez
