Tilted Future Project

To answer any lingering questions people may have about the new tags you see a few people wearing under their name...

http://www.tfproject.net/wtf.html

Quote:
Tilted Future Project
Basics
Web-based publication of writing and art.
Edgy. Funny. Smart. Provocative. Introspective.
Think - TFP in magazine form.

That's the future.


Needs
Writers. Artists. Editors. Designers. Programmers.


Outlook
Articles. Rants. Reviews. Artwork. Photography.
Cartoons. Poems. Blogs. Games. Links. News.


Dreams
First someone posts one of our articles on a message board.
Then someone posts another on their blog. It all starts. It all grows.
Months down the line, our word will have authority.
We've all ready invited several contributors, but if you feel you can add more quality writing/artwork to the mix, send me a PM and I'll see about it. Please be honest. My only fear is that those who volunteer end up flaking out.

So... there you go. This concept is only in it's beginning stages and may change dramatically in the near future.

A way to find out about what's going on before you commit yourself is to talk to a regular member with a "Future Project" tag. We've only been at it a short time so it's as new as a morning dew.

Sounds very interesting.
I hope this will add to the current TFP instead of evolving from the current TFP.

Either way, you've got my full support Hal!

It's an intriguing idea. I'm not sure if I'd have anything worthwhile to add, but 'TFP in Web-zine form' sounds awesome.

sounds interesting, but just so I understand. Are you making an online magazine? Is this going to be on this site or seperate?

Halx, sounds like the idea rocks.... while i do kinda like the whole underground feel to the site, it seems the emphasis is on only a few boards. This will bring out the true potential that I feel you have wanted to convey to us all... I can't wait til the move is all complete, and to see what you have in store for us.

Interesting idea! I'm looking forward to seeing it materialize, and will hopefully be able to contribute something of value once it does, though I'm not sure how. Good luck!

I echo that question. I am always looking for interesting projects.
I have the feeling though that my skills don't apply to the creation of a web-zine (I don't work with backend stuff, I develop it. Most of what you need is already freely available.)

I'd be very interested. I'm continuing my computer science program at the University of Arizona right now, and I'd be happy to help. If you need a beginning java programmer, I am your man.

Put me down for programmer if you need Oracle SQL, intermediate Java and beginning VB.

This tells me you want to create a webzine. What it doesn't tell me is much anything about the webzine. Will it have a theme? As most magazines do (e.g. maxim, people, architectural digest, etc....) or is it going to be an eclectic collection of random topics covering just about anything as the forums seem to be. I've been known to put my pen to paper, but before I can volunteer my services, I would like to know more about the concept. What is the magazine's mission statement?
