Spreading the love

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

I want to say thanks to everyone who has been contributing on the site. I think the quality and breadth of content is getting better and better. All along we have said that our vision is to unite enthusiasts and help to disseminate great information to the masses. In a very exciting piece of news, Yahoo! has taken notice.

 

Not sure if anyone has seen it yet, but this week Yahoo started re-publishing selected wikis on Yahoo! Green. We built a custom feed for them so that as the wikis are updated, we get notified of the changes, make sure that it's an actual change and not some internet vandalism, then we push the update to Yahoo.

 

The love the idea that a group of people collaborated on the content and that it can be kept fresh. Our goal with the program is to get our brand out there a bit and get some links back so that we can bring in more passionate people to make the community even more vibrant.

 

A list of the 3 wikis is here: http://green.yahoo.com/blog/huddlergreenhome and we'll push up another 1 or 2 each week. Pretty exciting methinks.

Yeah that's super cool.  My only question is - is there a way to find the Huddler entries without typing in the precise URL (or clicking the link)?  Just going to the Yahoo Green main and blog pages, I couldn't find the Huddler stuff.  Perhaps it just comes up when there's a new entry?

 

Seems like they should have links to the different blog sources somewhere (i.e. a Huddler link, ecogeek, etc. etc.)

Yeah, it's not ideal in that way. New articles show up on the Yahoo Green homepage for a bit, then you can always click on the "Blogs" thing in the top right corner of their homepage and we're listed there. We know we're not a blog, but they didn't have a "Community driven bad-a$$ Content" tab :)

Oh yeah there it is.  The first time I looked (a few days back when stins told me about it) the link to huddler wasn't there yet.  Super cool stuff.  I've always liked yahoo green, and now some of my wikis are/will be on there :-)
