Well, the content is up to you...
Right now I'm concentrating on the general topic "Email and
Thunderbird". Reason: I started with Thunderbird because I found there
was very little documentation (no F1 help and the homepage has very
little, just an *external* link on the Mozilla homepage for their own
product!) but it has quite a lot of users. The Mozilla admins actually
added a link to my pages (to http://letexa.com/courses/1/course.html
really). Since I still have precious little contents I'm working on
getting more for Email/Thunderbird, to justify the link and not loose
all the visitors coming trough it.
Right now most people come either through this link or through Google
searches. At this point it's useless because of a lack of significant
traffic, but if it picks up - and with some content it WILL pick up
(I've created successful communities TWICE before, for network address
translation and later at SuSE for Oracle so I think I know what I'm
talking about) - I'd like to make the statistics public, including
Google Analytics. Yes, a few days ago I added code for this. I had
always thought it to be useless, since I've the Apache logfiles, but
boy, was I wrong! Google Analytics is GREAT! Shows you everything down
to what keywords people used in their Google searches to find you, what
kind of bandwidth they have at home and their screensizes (very nice to
know if you offer multimedia content)!
So anyway, I also recorded my first Linux screencast, which was my
OpenSuSE 10.3 installation in VMware on my otherwise Win XP system
(Laptop is Vista with VMware), and had plans to turn that into my first
Linux content. Then I discovered that link on the Mozilla pages (I
actually finally looked at my webserver logfiles and the referrer info)
and in a hurry started to improve the Thunderbird related stuff.
Everyone should concentrate on what they like and know best. I have very
good infrastructure for multimedia and Flash (good recording equipment,
good video camera, Adobe Creative Suite CS3, 24" monitor ;-) etc.) and
have some ideas for what to do. But alone it's little use. I don't even
WANT to become an expert web- and ajax programmer, for example. Anyone
who likes that part? ;-)
I have some sort of fast hosting and can share some Gb
Very welcome indeed, if traffic picks up! How many GB? I've 150 as I
mentioned. Multimedia needs LOTS of bandwidth. One more reason to try to
also make money with the site, to be able to afford a content delivery
network ;-)
I have already some sort of courses in french, used three years ago as
distant (internet) teaching, and do now a small course for opening open
source to very newbie only knowing windows
Site: letexa.com
interesting
I'd like to concentrate on "enabling", i.e. general infrastructure like
the Flash framework, instructions and tutorials for how to create
content, the website in the background.
I set up a mailinglist [EMAIL PROTECTED] (unmoderated, members only), but
at this point it's still empty as this is the first time I went
"public". I had to get SOME content up first, I couldn't ask earlier
with nothing at all to show... to subscribe you have to go to this page
(I just added this, interrupting writing this email):
http://letexa.com/contributors.php
Seems like it only works this way and not via email commands.
