Promoting Clubs On The Front Page
Derek Started conversation Feb 21, 2007
Hello all,
Could I possibly ask that if you're aware of any clubs and societies that you think should feature on the front page, or if you come across any in your gallant travels, that you please notify the Community Choice page (A192791) of their existence. We can then pick up your tips from there and we can categorise those that haven't been already into the World of h2g2 and consider them for front page promotion.
Your humble servant,
Derek Del Mundo

Well, there's always 
'Clubs and Societies' page - no telling how active the clubs on this page are though: A660340
And the most recently created clubs and societies can be found on the 'Announcements' page: A630019 (newest ones at the top)

Excellent. And any you know of or happen upon in your travels that aren't listed anywhere, please let us know. Many thanks indeed.

"The Post 'Classified Adds' is the only continuously used page for new clubs and societies. 
I even remember a time it took half a year to get any response on the Community Choice page.

There's also the <./>Online</.> - people often tend to advertise their club/society of their choice in their nick name, trying to draw attention to it.
A quick look right now gives:
The pirate ship A579684
Musicians' Guild U150368
Science EXplained A4108330
Vote for your favourite record ever! A19091289
The trick is, of course, to know which users that belong to h2g2 but - as far as I can see - the hootooers are the only ones to actually specify A or U numbers

I've obviously missed an announcement about a new member of staff!

Yes, sorry, I just sort of shuffled in. I'm not here all the time so we thought we'd keep it a bit low-key, but then very gradually build to an astounding crescendo. A sort of God Speed You Black Emperor work trajectory.

Maybe we should start a Club For Shy & Retiring Italics?
