As I was saying, I was in a state where it was pretty much
physically impossible not to sleep, after being up much of the past
72 hours working more or less nonstop on that layout. I woke up for
a bit, but I'm not going to come in to the Mission tonight. I'll be
going back to sleep soon. I need a good long block of it.<br>
<br>
Thank God for Miloh. If not for him, I doubt this would ever have
gotten finished, and it certainly wouldn't have made it to
Noisebridge tonight on schedule.<br>
<br>
Moving on - <b>Next step is to get ZiP01 up on the web site!</b>
Miloh suggested (and I agreed) that we should have it available on
ZZW in several different formats:<br>
<br>
1) PDF ready-to-print (I gave Miloh 2 copies of it on disc earlier -
this is the file people can download (free) from the site if they
want to print copies themselves. It doesn't work as a reading copy.<br>
<br>
2) Flash - Miloh knows how to do this<br>
<br>
3) HTML - <b>I'm already working on this one</b>, so check w/ me
before you do any work on converting the PDF to HTML format. Let's
not duplicate effort. Miloh / Gavin / whoever else wants to help,
pick one of the previous two options.<br>
<br>
Thinking ahead to ZiP02 (April 1st): <br>
<br>
-Start thinking <b>cover art!</b> (I love designing the front cover
- that's probably my favorite part of the whole enterprise). In
future I was thinking we could open it up to various people or even
Noisebridge in general for people to design a ZiP cover. <br>
<br>
-I want to experiment with different formats / substrates /
printing methods, so <b>for ZiP02 I propose that we print on
tabloid sheets (11x17) in quarto style</b> (i.e. folded in
quarters, rather than in letter sized sheets folded in half as with
ZiP01). I'd like to try a new style with each issue for a while,
until we arrive at one we feel is THE correct format for ZiP.
Switching it up continously like that is innovative & I think it
will keep the project from going stale.<br>
<br>
I have a bunch of other ideas already for ZiP02 but we'll wait and
discuss them soon hopefully at an actual, physical meeting.<br>
<br>
TTYS (after I sleep some more)<br>

PS <b>Office Max kicked Kinko's ass</b> in my ZiP01 print
comparison - not only cheaper but also waaay better quality image,
paper, everything. I printed 50 copies of ZiP01 today at Office Max
(Geary & Arguello) and they came to almost exactly $5.00 per
coopy.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
