Greetings, denizens of cyberspace!
We are officially multi-lingual! Portions of 365 are currently being translated into Korean and Spanish. If you’d like to translate into another language, please, drop me a line with a link to your site and it’ll show up in our next newspost. We enjoy imposing ourself on the rest of the world…especially me, since, as a TEFL teacher, I’m surrounded by people who I can’t pimp the site to because of language conflicts.
Also, we now offer the convenient, enticing, and morally compelling option to donate to 365. Yes, asking for donations is slightly skeevy, but the fact is we put a lot of money (over $600) into starting up the site, and I’d really like to pay off at least some of the debt. Of course, the stories will keep coming no matter what, but we’d definitely appreciate your help. In fact, I’ll send you a postcard from China and a nifty business card if you donate $5 or more (send your address to moi).
Because I’m asking you for money, I feel ethically obligated to inform you that 365 has been approved for Google’s AdSense program, so in a few days, you’ll see that unobtrusive sidebar on our main page. We will, however, never use tacky banners or anything that detracts from the nice layout that Matt was kind enough to create for us at a price slightly lower than peanuts. AdSense has a decent setup which, as I said, is rather subtle and targeted to the audience…not to mention that we get a decent cut every time you click on a link which will further help us get out of that aforementioned debt.
On the subject of banners, here’s a nice piece I’ve cooked up for you if you’d like to pimp our site. J Loseth was kind enough to write this c/p-able code:
Also, if you haven’t already, feel free to participate in our forums. We’ve got a nice group going there, and they’ve been posting some excellent fanfic recently.
That’s all for today. Thanks, loyal readers, for following our site. This project has been far more successful than I anticipated, and I really appreciate everything you guys have done for us.
