Poopsheet Relaunches at New Domain
POOPSHEET UNITES UNDER ONE DOMAIN
A couple of months ago, the [URL=http://poopsheetfoundation.com/shop]Poopsheet Shop[/URL] was relaunched at its new domain and now the rest of Poopsheet has finally joined it!
The new URL: [URL=http://www.poopsheetfoundation.com]http://www.poopsheetfoundation.com[/URL]
However, with this move comes a change in format. Officially, Poopsheet will no longer regularly post reviews. Instead, the new site will turn its focus towards information. The reviews have been replaced by something more like announcements and each new item noted at the site will contain all of the same information as before but with less commentary.
It’s unfortunate, but I’m excited about it just the same as this means information of new releases will be much more timely than the reviews were under the previous set-up. Some will be interested to know, of course, that there will still be occasional reviews; it’s just that they’re no longer a major focus.
Additionally, the site has been streamlined so that every update (excepting special features and the Links page) will be in one place, the front page. This means news, new releases, Shop updates and other site announcements will all be in the same place. No more hopping around from page to page.
Incidentally, there are a few ways you can access the updates other than simply visiting the site. The updates on the front page are originally created in LiveJournal, so if you have a LiveJournal account and would rather read the updates through your Friends page, the Poopsheet journal is called “rickbradford”. Also, the RSS feed is [URL=http://www.livejournal.com/users/rickbradford/data/rss]http://www.livejournal.com/users/rickbradford/data/rss[/URL] for those of you who prefer newsreaders. (The Atom feed is the same except “atom” replaces “rss” in the URL.)
I’d like to send out a big “thank you” to everybody who helped me troubleshoot the new site and thanks especially to Maggie McFee for saving the day.
Please hop on over and check it out when you have a moment. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. And if you should have any questions, there’s a FAQ you can check at the site or feel free to drop me an e-mail.
Thanks, everybody!
