I was wondering....any chance of a TLLTS Wiki? Might be a fun place for collecting show notes and other trivia. Like:

What a Lemon Party is! (or maybe not)
Rules like don't EVER go to a site Dann suggests!
What the nipple burns mean to the TLLTS
Anything else the tllts wikipedian's want to post.

I'd help keep it up that's for sure. Or at least correct the spelling.

I think that's a great idea. My only problem would be biving people the opportunity to spam us in that manner. Perhaps thosw kinds of questions belong in the faq instead? Dunno - what do the rest of you guys think?

Sounds great. Maybe you guys could just have stricter policies on who is allowed to edit the Wiki. I can't imagine you'd get much spam at that point, unless you have a rat on the inside that you don't know about. Perhaps Allan is responsible!

How about locking a such wiki down with .htaccess ? And then just giving out the password on the show each month or something.

I ran mediawiki at work and had it locked down so that only registered users could post. I could set the same thing up over on my server. I'm not sure what kind of access you would need to set it up over on the tllts.org site.

Just as an update and an asside to everyone, Dann and I are currently testing out speedywiki, tikiwiki, pmwiki and phpwiki.

The topic of a TLLTS Wiki has come up as of late and we have been looking into the idea. Dann and I have both been experimenting with different bits of wiki software for the job and I had a few *extra* minutes after I got home today and set one up and going. This will *tentatively* be the one, pending consultation with the rest of the gang, mostly because I already have it up and running and secure on the .org website. For those of you who are raring to go, get right at it. The url is http://tllts.org/wiki/, the username is blank and the password is "nospammers". Have at it and make it nice and purdy!

Ok I am done for tonight. I want to see other people's edits. There's at least one or two fun things I started. If you guys like it let me know. Feel free to edit/add/correct my spellings and add some good stuff.

I just completed the guest list:
http://tllts.org/wiki/index.php?n=Main.PastGuests

Pretty impressive I must say. If anyone wants to update the list with proper links to the guests project/companies I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks
