Some Ideas for the Convo Mag

Wow, our website is pretty much a hit already eh! It's just been set up, and ideas and suggestions are already flowing in! And the template has changed too!

I like Alen's idea about the Video CD. I think we could include pictures, videos, or anything other interesting things inside. I have another idea. Why not come up with our very own B105 song and include it into the CD as well? And then one day we can look back at the good old days and sing to this song! (Of course if we ever composed a song, it would be better than the IMU song, right? Ahem.) ;)

Anyway, for the convo mag, I was thinking that it would be nice if we could have a page for "Famous Quotes by Lecturers". Of course the title wouldn't exactly be like that, but I thought it would be funny if we could get someone to do a caricature featuring our lecturers, then quote them. You know, like for instance, some lecturers love to say this: "It's nothing but..." so we could put this line next to this lecturer. Oh by the way, a caricature is a distorted image (drawing) of a person. Well, something like this, or this. I'm sure you guys have seen this kinda things in newspapers, caricatures of our very own politicians. Of course, we need someone who is good in drawing to do this, because even the "distorted" images must be identifiable, right? :) Then maybe we could name this page as "Whose line is this"? Alternatively, this idea could be applied to us too. Here's a picture to illustrate what a caricature is.

It's obvious who this is, right? Don't tell me you don't know who this is lol.

Another one below.

As for the theme for the convo mag, I can't think of any for the moment. But maybe we could come up with the design first, then the theme? Ah I don't know. Probably it's easier the other way round. Oh yes, this is sort of a reply to Elaine's comment in one of the previous posts. Just follow Laura's direction to login and post an entry. Otherwise your comment will be as long as a post lol.

I think we would have to work on getting sponsorships too, especially since it's a good way to cover our costs. Of course, we would have to approach the right people. Ah, but wth, not everyone's approachable. Hehe.

For the fund-raising activity, I thought of something lol. But then it's some crazy idea. I'm going to say it anyway, heh. Since this site is going to have many visitors, why don't we join Nuffnang? If I'm not mistaken, if a page has >20 visitors in a day, we could earn some money. I think. Have to ask someone to check up on that though. And if it's true, we'll just have to visit this site many times a day. We would have to update ourselves anyway, right? ;)

i thought you had to click on the advert to get money on cheques and there is a minimum hit before you can actually get money from them, im not sure.

very clever wei yin...very clever. this could actually be a source of funds. not much but still something.

i think i might try to sign this blog up for nuffnang now.
it works by the traffic flow on the blog...for example if they find your traffic good, then they will place an ad on your blog for a week. for eg, they will send u an email saying 'ABC company will be placing an ad on your blog for the following week etc' and then they will pay you depending on your traffic. it will be something like RM1.00 - RM3.00 something per week. not sure.. and then for weeks that no company places any ad, you can opt for the 'pay per click' ads.

anyhow, just sign up la. lol, not losing anything

Its Adsense i think.
You need at least 100 active subscribers to your blog before you can apply it.
Someone needs to have a bank account that is capable for e-funding to do it.
Money earn is damn little actually.
