Yeah, the problem of not having enough time is why I'm trying to get lots of people involved. If enough people all do a little bit then it can work, but trying to do it alone (which was my previous strategy) just doesn't work...

I think that the main problem is that there's no adiquate site map for H2G2. There's no real way of finding your way to the politics forum (i never have) unless you know that it's there. When i first came to H2G2 i looked through L,U & E for politics - i didn't see the forum, so i never found my way there. The search engine is a bag of s**t, so you're just not going to get people there. Perhaps this is something you should bring up with the Editors. A simple sitemap of the forums. I often look online and find there are 80 reaserchers logged on, and yet no-one is talking in Ask H2G2 - so where are they? I still have no idea.

Yeah, it is a bit of a problem how to advertise it. When I introduced it last time I spammed Ask H2G2 with adverts, put the A number in my username, and got links added on Colonel Sellers big list of H2G2 clubs and societies, and a link on the similar Post page. Didn't quite work though smiley - erm
