Contest: What should we name the IPX blog?

Submitted by Fuzz on Thu, 12/07/2007 - 12:32

Some sites have cool names for their blogs. Ours is just called “blog” right now and accessed via /blog.

So do we just keep it as Blog, or do we want to come up with something sounds cool and promotes IPX?

There’s something to be said for keeping it at /blog. Simple, effective… There’s also a case for catchy names too…

An example:

Company: lullabot
Blog name: lullablog

The only thing I can think of is perhaps ipxblog… kinda sucks though.

Thoughts, suggestions?

Recruitment Drive

Submitted by Sha8doW on Mon, 02/07/2007 - 19:51

I would like peoples opinions on an IPX Recruitment Drive?

Do we need to recruit?
How many should we recruit?
What are we looking for?

etc……

you know what i mean, and i want thoughts…. Ashi VALUE ADD!
no fence sitting in this one people ZEN IT UP and comment!

No matter what we do, of course we need to recruit people who we know and get along with, such as we did with Chipper/ltmon.

Also Chip/ltmon, I need your home addresses!
gotta send you something (don’t worry I’am not trying to sell Amway!)

also ashi, whats the status of Hashi?

Back in Business

And we’re back. After a short outage after we exceeded our bandwidth limit, we’re back online. The plan is to stay on the free hosting plan until we’re ready to go live so towards the end of each month its likely we’ll be over our limit. The limit is 250MB, and by moving to the first paying plan we’ll get 2GB of bandwidth, and hopefully that will be plenty for go live. If it isn’t there are other hosting options we can consider.

IPX News Edition 1 - Team IPX Shock loss to team Other

Greetings and welcome to the 1st Edition of IPX news.

IPX SHOCK LOSS TO TEAM OTHER

Team IPX (8) have gone down to Team Other (11)

Team IPX like always lost the 1st period, down 3 – 0

It seemed that Team Other had done some recruiting and turned up with a few mates who could skate reasonably well…. but they soon learnt to stay away from the corners after some IPX checked their small twiggy frames into the boards.

IPX as always came out fighting in the second, Hashi had a blinder of a game and it seemed to be the best performance from SirDraco to-date

However even with the IPX quick line change tactics, the younger ‘less lived’ bodies of Team Other seemed to keep on like a Duracell bunny!

Trek 2 - Yellow Rock to Warrimoo

Location: 
Yellow Rock to Warrimoo

Introduction

This trek was hatched at Kazashi’s quarters, after returning from Trek 1. The team was sitting around the topographic map reviewing Trek 1 and looking at the region in general. A few places of interest were noted Nice Views cache and Fallen Giant cache and a trek was formed. Starting at Yellow Rock we would traverse the fire trails, camp at what would soon become known as Base Camp and head out the next day. With the help of Google Earth and geocaching.com a plan was formed.
