In our site there is more to do than blogging

There are many ways to contribute to culturekitchen than just blogging. Here's a run down of some of what's available on the site :

  1. Quotes
    When I don't have time to blog about a bit of news, I use the Quotes form to take good excerpts out of articles and have them rotating in the QUOTES block that appears towards the bottom of the left side column on every page. Some have images, some don't.

    It just occurred to me to use it to also excerpt good posts from other bloggers outside of our site. So use it, please, especially if you don't have time to blog about a good post you've read from blogs we don't have in our blogroll.

  2. Image Galleries
    After the last fix our image galleries got all screwed up, but when they are working, they work marvelously.

    If you'd rather open a photo-essay gallery instead of a blog, just make your case and we will do that for you. We have here a wonderful source that gets massively hit through the search engines ready for the community.

  3. Recipes
    Yes! After a test run, the recipe module is working again (that's a shout-out to Jeffrey). A girl doesn't just live of ideas. She needs a good, hearthy portion of Chocolate Mousse Pie to feed her soul too.
  4. Events
    What's events are you attending in your area?

    Are you going to a conference?

    Have you been invited to a panel?

    Is there a march or a deadline for a magazine or a prize we should know about?

    These are the things calendars are made for. And the best part is that, if you start using vigorously, we can turn on the "remind me of this event" and "RSVP" features.

    You can even use it organize your own events as well.

  5. Polls
    Yup. You can run polls on our site. Unfortunately the form for polling does not allow for a description. If you are a Drupal expert who would like to donate this mod for us, we'd more than appreciate it.

    Polls are fun. I like to take them all the time. What y'all want to know is that they are open to anyone to participate. That's right. You don't have to me a member of the site to participate in a poll

  6. Weblinks
    This is section we could you massive work from the community. I would like to run two blorolls. One edited by me and the other one edited by the community. With the weblinks forms, we can have members submitting links to the community blogroll on and ongoing basis.

So take this post to ask ANYTHING that goes beyong blogging ... but questions about posting images. I am getting to that one JJ!
