Other Activity Highlight postings (continuously updated) ...

[administrator]

To retain some of the "Real Estate" on the front page of the Forum, we've had to remove the "sticky" tag from some of the older Activity Highlight items. Here are the direct links to the Activity Highlight postings which were made non-sticky.

We'll try to keep each Activity Highlight sticky for at least two weeks. (Edit: Due to the number of Activity Highlight items, this has been temporarily changed.)

I was wondering for a while now if it might be a good idea to have All the **Activity Highlights** separate from the general discussion page.
Attendees might gravitate more towards reading them if they were separately located and I think this is a good place for them so they might get noticed more.

I thought of setting up a totally separate message base for the Activity Highlights this year, but decided against it, at least for this year.

Main reason is that it would be awkward to gateway a second message base to and from the e-mail and Yahoo sides. Actually, gating it TO the list/Yahoo would be easy, getting the incoming messages sorted into the correct message base may be tricky.

Another consideration is that I think most users have the main DLV Discussion Forum bookmarked and land there when surfing. Therefore they immediately see the announcements and "sticky" messages front and center. To switch to another message base would require another mouse click, and if you have ever analyzed web traffic, you lose a certain percentage of web visitors each time they need to click to continue.

We can discuss this further during the slow season.
