The same stuff is already put on show on forum section; let’s reactivate the Jooni anyway.
Hello, it’s us busy all the time! Just a few hrs of spare time! whew!
Simplify, simplify!! i came to know, some users r still using old-home-page – just only bcz they r well familiar with old-home-page-contents or it’s simple to understand, n now it’s vital to make our website page simpler, i think. But um, EVERYONE is busy.
“Less is more - LESS difficulty & MORE users accessing/participating.†We shouldn’t blame orkut or othr online communities – Once u’ve got the knack of our site u’ll come to know, our website is far better than ’em all the way (except activity :-)).
I guess it isn’t a correct time to open the vents as users are unavailable to read this whole speculation; Lo. :p And i feel, NauksumV2 also is simple as old-page; only thing u need to do is play around with it - though venting my feelings anyway:
1. Home: d concept of bell (using 2 steps to access NV2) should b modified. It consumes more time when users do use two steps to access the RMNV2. Better, what my mind can contribute here is: we can copy-paste the links as much as possible to rungmung.net-page (not NV2) around the bell with mentioning new events (same like old-home-page), one login box also and one logout link should be placed on every page (same like it is found in mails or related). Number of cookies available can be reduced for accessing with a better speed if possible, else that’s fine.
2. Genealogy: 2-3 months ago, i was trying to learn with d help of phpgedview open source (got to learn a bit abt, but much of that was above my head) n i found i was unable to add any data. I guess, i was not given rights to that level to add the names. That time, for some days i was in touch with Krish Hya n afterwards Krish Hya’s vanishing act leaded work to get paused though i don’t have idea if i’m given rights to that level.
3. Forum: in cyber cafes - it’s very laborious to open it using IE (no firefox, no opera etc. in cafes). The moment i open the forum, the next moment IE vanishes (not always). :(
4. Katha: no one is looking after rungmung(0)gmail.com to add news, i observed. (even i was trying to add the news directly but i found, it does not allow users to add new data)
5. Jooni: ?? lots of non users’ activity :p - unwanted feedbacks/trackbacks - spam?? Oh, everyone is busy!!
6. Groups: few days back i made the one – I think this section may work in near future..
7. Chat: ??
8. Halo Satho: this should be open to all users to “add/not editâ€, with one notification to all the users to “send in/add†their known contacts. I, even, promised to work on hindi part of it, but…
9. Dictionary: last yr, i added around 40-50 words in dictionary. Then Ambu Da asked me to stop adding the words as it was creating problem n i made a list of around 100 words in the form of site-dictionary-format. Due to lack of communication, i made a bit of a bloomer to type the Hindi (font) part of it. I did use ‘Shusha font’ to write in Hindi n i later came to know that rm-site-dictionary doesn’t support Shusha font. Later, Krish Hya gave me other excel-format-word-list to add words (only in excel - not in the site) which is strictly in different format – one needs to retype all the alphabets to add in rm-site-dictionary from that excel-format-word-list.
10. Else: there are many other sections where i still need to play around with ‘em n need to know the rules to play with contents….squeezed!!
All said n done. Admin needs to take his spare time & work, n all we need to have are contributions, even one minute of ours will do – after all ignorance isn’t always bliss. Nowadays u see how this website is crawling. :(
Let’s crawl anyway…
p.s. plz do not take it as a ‘must-do-speculation’; it’s mere an intuition of mine to vent my feelings. U also are always most welcome to share ur mind n active hands!!
