Greetings,
 
I am building a web portal for people interested in meteorites and
collecting. To make it clear: this isn't my personal site, nor is it
where I intend to sell meteorites. I am doing this serving the community
and hoping to create a place where potential collectors can seek and
find information.
 
The site will go live in January, so this is an advance warning and an
invitation. Let me just tell you what I intend to do:
 
World of Meteorites is based on a CMS (content management system). This
means that users of the site can add their own content and share it with
the world. For you, it means that you could post a newsbit pointing to
your ebay auctions or share an article about meteorites with others. I
will add some other modules to this site, like a gallery for meteorites,
a FAQ, forums, encyclopedias and so on. I will advertise the site on
other sites and directories, and I hope it becomes rather popular. I
have some experience with these things, I also run one of the largest
roleplaying news sites on the internet.
 
Since I think it is essential to have some content on the site before
going live, I invite you to start builing a links section now.
Basically, I ask you to go there, register and add the link to your
personal site to our directory. This will allow future users to reach
your site from the portal.
 
Here's a step by step description how to do that:
 
Go to http://www.worldofmeteorites.com
<http://www.worldofmeteorites.com/>
Register as a user
In the left menu, choose "Web links"
Page Title: The name of your Homepage
Page Url: just enter the url there
Enter a short description of your page
Enter your name and your email address (they won't be shown to the
users)
Click on "Add this url"
You are done.
 
I will the check the link and approve it - from now on you have a link
to your site from the portal.
 
If you are interested in helping me adding content to the portal or if
you have suggestions, please feel free to contact me.
 
Regards,
Bernhard Rems
