MB E-Zine (Idea)
 

I was trying to think up a topic for one of those Member's Journal things when I got the idea of a regular E-Zine with several members contributing articles.

I might have a few on board already but I want to hammer out the details and see if I can get some more contributers.

Okay first (and least important), the name. A couple I was tossing around..

• The MusicBanter Gazette
• The MB Reader
• MB Monthly (or weekly, depending)

And of course, the oh so generic "The MusicBanter Times" :rolleyes:

Okay secondly, content. I was thinking:

• A general introduction each edition.
• Reviews
• Music News ("Nelly to recieve Pulitzer Peace Prize")
• Music Interest Topic ("Why Nelly shouldn't win a Pulitzer Peace Prize", "Limp Bizcut should die")
• A highlighted music or non-music article to close.

Thrid, frequency.

Either it's weekly, monthly or every two weeks.

Lastly, I will always publish quality articles sent to me by anyone, but I'm looking for some regular contributors.

The sub forum that it may go in is already called the MB reader fella. As you already know I'm on board.

I'm so down like a clown in China town for this.

Gah I knew I had seen that name before :(

What sort of format are you thinking of?

I think a monthly installation would produce better quality and be more interesting.

But at the same time it would allow alot of the 'hot topic' issues to fall through the cracks. As they wouldn't be relevant by the end of the month.

I'm very keen! :)

I love talking about the latest events.

That's why a fortnightly edition would be best, I think.

Vanilla, do you want to contrinbute?

maybe you could add some free downloads, exclusive videos, etc...
(i like this idea)
