Scheduling Posts on the Blog
GP Mon 7 Apr 2014 5:53PMPublicSeen by 13To get more serious about Nintendo Papercraft's blog, we should first set off a publishing schedule. By example, as Manic 101 suggested, we could publish one regular model every Friday and one Cubee every Tuesday, for a total of two models per week.

I think that there should be a list of models to be posted each week, and we could divide roles like for example scheduling models could be assigned to 2 posters, for example me and NAMEHERE, one does a week and other does the other or one does a month other does the other month. What do you think?

@vincentmrl, I think that might be a bit complex, since what would we do if someone assigned doesn't have the time to post one week or simply forgets? I think it should be on a voluntary basis. For instance, if we'd get a pile of posts waiting to get published, we'd spread them over the weeks.

I think Manic's idea is good. If we have a pattern and plan then the blogposters can negotiate among themselves if anyone wants more or less work. Is it true that you can schedule posts in advance?

@byte2222 Yes, we can schedule posts! It's not very completed, just change the button from Publish to Schedule.

In order to show what needs to be published, we're making the papercrafts list public for the first time : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlHB-my6NHCrdGN6MHJMMFk0Tjl0cGVYVG1ZQ1BwTEE#gid=0

We created a new Spreadsheet with the new Google Sheets, allowing us to insert hyperlinks.

It makes perfect sense. We need to keep cubeecrafts apart from the regular schedule, or else we would have cubeecrafts for a whole year!

We get plenty of content, nicely spaced and we can keep it up for a long time

I think Manic 101's idea is great. It'd make us a bit more disciplined... Our latest model was posted almost two years ago and we're recruiting lots of new authors right now. A schedule would be a way for us to avoid a sudden 'bubble'.
