Does the world need a new QBasic e-zine? The one's I've seen are either extremely dead, or close to it (QB Chronicles died long ago, and even the editor of the QB Cult Magazine admits that it too is almost dead). So, should a new zine be started? To prevent it going stale and petering out after the first few issues, it should have an editorial team and perhaps some sort of 'Constitution' which sets out the ground rules and states that it will never be abandoned :wink: because each member of the editorial staff is bound to provide two in his place when he leaves.  hehehe. It would need to have plenty of articles to keep the readers interested; not only a few programming articles each issue but plenty of rants and reviews... |

ak00ma, this is exactly the kind of idea I was hinting at. Of course, in no way am I insinuating that I would be the editor-in-chief of such a project  . Of course I would like to be, and could, because I have nothing important coming up in the next few years, being at school and all. I like the "interviews with famous QBers" idea... I think that just about everyone on this board except me is a QB celebrity... na_th_an, megaman, Jocke... and all of you others. (Hey, on that note, I've seen a few RPGs around by a guy called 'DarkDread'... you know, Lith and those ones... he still alive?) Maybe we could have some kind of system whereby we don't provide all new content every month or something... we just add articles as we receive them...? Anyone interested in this idea, email me and we'll get some discussions going. |
