Greetings Monks,
I was wandering the Monastery, looking for something to do, or something to read, and I thought to myself "What if Perlmonks had a blog?".
Nothing fancy (Wordpress wouldn't be bad), just something that the Perlmonks community as a whole can write posts for and read. Here is how I see it:
- We create the blog (ideas wanted)
- Monks write posts for the blog
- We create a group of Blog Editors to check over the posts (I volunteer)
- We post at certain times of the month (ideas wanted)
- We have fun with it!
So what do you think? Good idea? Bad idea? Comments? Concerns? Questions? Can we implement this?
-
Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
