Re: [glob2-devel] Sourceforge presence

[Kieran P]

Hey everyone,

Not only that Brad, but I've had some offers to help make things from the job requests I posted on the site. Several C++ coders (although new and decided not to because of the complex code), were willing to help. If one decent coder sees the ads like they did, we might get a second developer to help Brad with the coding on stuff. That should help relieve some pressure to do most of the work ;)

A quick look shows that after glob2's own website, wikipedia, freshmeat, and sourceforge rank top 3-5 (in that order) when searching "globulation 2", while the old ysagoon, freshmeat, and wikipedia fill spots 3-5 in that order when searching for "globulation" (search for globulation results in sourceforge 7th, and savannah 8th, one spot apart, but still, sourceforge is higher and only open for a week or two compared to savannahs entire history.

Overall, maintain the releases and news on the savannah and sourceforge site are a good idea. We have a lot to gain from it!

Anyway, time to read other emails.
Later,
Kieran

Kieran was right about one thing, our Sourceforge presence does mean something. The Sourcerforge link when searching "globulation 2" on google is fourth, and the Savannah link is nowhere to be found. Sourceforge statistics show we get about 7-8 sourceforge downloads per day since he created it. While Sourceforge is sort of anti-philosihpy, it is good for both hosting and advertising.
