Bridgefolk,<br><br><br>I still want to start up a NoiseBridge pub/zine. Life got in the way this week but it's going to happen. And I need your help. I know about <a href="http://www.ntk.net/" target="_blank">NTK</a> now - Danny's former zine. Maybe we can use that as a springboard to the new publication. No doubt it will be somewhat different with new input. I have no shortage of ideas. You can find some e-zines I've recently started on ConvoZine <a href="http://convozine.com/longshanks" target="_blank">here</a> (Tatterdemalion Vogue, Queerisma, Occupy Middle-earth, QuakeTalk), though I haven't been able to develop any of them very far yet.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Hey Tony,<br><br>There's actually a few issues and a mailing list infrastructure for Signal to Noise, which was my attempt at a NB e-zine. It seemed to do pretty well, but it was a lot of work.<br>

The editorial email for this stuff is <a href="mailto:noiserat@noisebridge.net">noiserat@noisebridge.net</a> -- I deliberately set up a role-ish email so that someone else could take it over.<br>

Sort of like Page Six for hackers. NoiseDrama. I think it could be hilarious.....<br>
<br></blockquote><div> <br><preachy><br></div><div>Weirdly for someone who used to write what was effectively a gossipzine, I tried to avoid this in the first few issues of signal to noise. It actually has a million super-effective routes already at spreading weird gossip. There's nothing wrong with adding another one, but I figured at the time that it's easy to end up creating and then siding with partisan social groups if you do this, and that kind of screws you over from being a zine for everybody in NB. I wanted to slowly introduce it more when the image of the zine was stabilised, because it's hugely fun, but it's really hard for it not turn into a hatebucket if you do it to early or get it wrong. <br>
<br>But anyway! To the do-acrats, the spoils!<br></preachy><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Also, if I may be permitted a moment of shameless self-promotion, I just had a novella published, <i>The Witch's Garden</i> - it's on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Witchs-Garden-Tony-Longshanks-LeTigre/dp/0615554229/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1324133245&sr=1-2" target="_blank">Amazon</a> even. Unfortunately with the way things are with my life & the world in general right now I think it's gonna get squashed & forgotten. So the cookie crumbles.<br>

<br>I almost want to schedule a meeting for Wednesday this week again, but I better hold off for the moment & make sure things are going to calm down enough first.....<br><br><br><br>Tony Longshanks<br><br><br><br>
