Meeting Notes from 8/6/2007 meeting
Submitted by todd on Tue, 2007-08-07 10:01The geeks met last night at the house of M.Burton, stake holder for a new depaving site being added to the Westgate system. At the meeting Stoner, thestevenlane, me/Tod, and, of course, M.Burton.
All of us, save Steven, worked on the new site. We created banner images and started on the theme while M.Burton started in on site content. We made good progress. A TO-DO page was created to list the work yet to do.
thestevenlane worked on a poster for Friends Of Critical Mass promoting the 10th anniversary ride.

bikegeeks launch new Chicago Critical Mass site.
Submitted by todd on Fri, 2007-06-29 02:57After much work, the bikegeeks are proud to announce the launch of a new website for the Chicago Critical Mass ride at:
http://chicagocriticalmass.org/
The new site carries on in the tradition of the old Chicago Critical Mass site (archived here) while offering several updates. Most importantly, the new site tries to include the CCM community by allowing authenticated users (those with a Westgate login -- available to everyone) to contribute content. Users are encouraged to upload ride reviews on rides they've participated in to the site. These ride reviews (including links to external media sites) allows the community to write their own histories without the need for a "webmaster" gatekeeper. Additionally, users can upload flyers that were passed out at the ride or that are simply made available for download to promote Critical Mass in Chicago and around the world.
Additional functionality is planned for the new CCM site. Contact the bikegeeks if you have the inclination to help make it better.
