This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Excellent! Thanks, guys. I have three days queued up now.

Where do I submit photos for Provocateuse, again? I swear I won't spam you with Gerard Way photos. Swear.

I am *monumentally* behind on the email address, but if you have more than one pic, pics at provocateuse dot com is the best place. If you're going to submit one, you can submit a photo here: [link] . I do get to those a bit faster.

I really need to take those sites more seriously. I got started. October was my deadline. Gotta get those blinkers back on. But I need to work out social media buttons--the code of them is not bad (though Facebook is quite weird--for full impact it does involve putting a real name to it, and...not gonna happen... I've got tumblr and twitter live on venus, FB in beta (the three together are ugly), and Google+, pinterest, and one more that I forgot totally. And of course I bump into this which says too many are too many. Is 6.5 too many: [link] ?

StumbledUpon? Maybe--I think that's what started the whole thing, from finding them in my traffict. And I've seen my stuff on pinterest too, but since I promote on tumblr, they were first.

Jilli, do you share your content like that?

Anyone here, who generates (or steals,...aggregates, nay..curates) content made these choices? What feedback was it based on--things about how your stuff being used? Data or anecdata? Or is it about where you want to go?

(And that was totea a business post but I never feel it's a real business to ask questions)

Do you mean do I have all the handy buttons to the social media sites, so people can share GCS content? No, I'm not that organized. Hell, I'm still debating putting ads on the main GCS site. (Pete is vehemently against the idea, in part because it would mean a site redesign.)

Right now I've got Tumblr set up to push to fb and Twitter, and that's it. (And I think the RSS feed for GCS is broken, but I haven't had time to check.)

Does StumbleUpon drive a lot of traffic? I don't know many people who use it.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Jilli, feel free to spam me with Gerard Way photos.

Skipping yet again to sadly ignore ongoing conversations and post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is a double Buffista event: it's the birthday of both Burrell as well as Calli.

Happy birthday, Burrell! Happy birthday, Calli! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Thanks, Nilly! Also, happy birthday, Burrell!

I'm sorry I wasn't on the board in a timely manner to suggest this, ita. [link]
