| − | ===== Site Associate =====
| |
| − | | |
| − | You would administer our Drupal website, moderate comments, watch for broken links on the site, report on web traffic and referrals. Website administration experience, some HTML / programming skills required. Ideally you'd also manage / coordinate of volunteers - the whole website would be your baby, and you'd help Patri brainstorm / prioritize feature requests, and coordinate volunteers (and occasionally professionals) in getting them implemented. Alternately, that aspect could be handled by the Volunteer Coordinator.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===== Secret GIS Project =====
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is a fun idea we'd like to keep secret, which would involve a moderate amount of GIS programming, in conjunction with an online store, and some visual displays (Google Maps, Google Earth KMZ output, etc.). It might produce some revenue (that you could share in) and publicity. You can use any platform you want for serving the data, but it will need to talk to our Drupal site for user information. We'd probably be willing to pay for this, since it is potentially revenue-generating and should be high-quality.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Socials / GTGs ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===== 2008 Conference Coordinator(s) =====
| |
| − | | |

| − | | |
| − | Other volunteers are welcome - Chris can find projects for you!
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===== Bay Area Seasteading Socials Coordinator =====
| |
| − | | |
| − | Work with Patri & Joe to schedule, organize, and run monthly GTGs in the SF Bay Area. These are used for pitching seasteading, updating people, networking, getting volunteers, etc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== General ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===== Volunteer Coordinator =====
| |
| − | | |
| − | ('''Filled by {{U|jhogan}}''')
| |
| − | | |
| − | With Patri, identify TSI projects that can be helped / implemented by volunteers, prioritize them, find people to take them on, and manage/monitor progress.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===== Establish Membership Program =====
| |
| − | | |
| − | We'd like to start a membership program where people pay annual dues in return for schwag, recognition, and other perks. You'd help us define, operate, and grow the program. Experience designing/running such things is a plus. (If not, we have a book you can learn from).
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===== Marketing Associate =====
| |
| − | | |
| − | Reading books like Made To Stick has made it clear that we have a long way to go in refining our vision and pitch to its bare essentials, so it will have the strongest appeal to the most people. We're looking for someone with experience designing inspiring/sticky marketing, preferably with small non-profits, to help us. We'd use this messaging places like: the website, in talks, in interviews, in the book, etc. Basically, work with Patri to make seasteading sound cool and awesome, rather than weird and scary :). And to appeal to a broad audience, not just crazy libertarians.

| − | The Book Beta is generated using Scrivener and MultiMarkDown. The MMD outputs a single large XHTML file. Since it is XHTML, it is cleanly structured (book hierarchy is reflected in H1, H2... hierarchy), and should be easy to parse. We want it split into sections, with TOCs/headers/footers added, and forward/back/up/down links. Much like the Book Alpha, but going 1-2 levels deeper in splitting (sections, not just chapters). This script will become part of our pipeline for the "live" version of the book - it will continuously evolve in Scrivener, and periodically get exported to HTML and PDF for printing.
