Does this mean you want me to drop by your offices? Do you have a phone number, or is that too web 1.0?

re contact information. i know you are on "eye" street, however the capital letter "I" can be mistaken for a "one." Please think about clarifying this in your contact info.

Thanks for including me and so far from what I have seen on your site, this is going to be great! I do have one suggextion. I write all of the press releases for the Sacramento Fire Department and you have a "crime" tag. Could you change it to a "public safety" tag, or add another tag where public safety can have their press releases posted? I know that all of my fellow Public Safety PIO's write frequent press releases, and I think your readers would appreciate a page that they could go to , to see all of our press releases. Thanks!

Will you ever have a fiction or poetry section?

I wonder if you guys will ever be hiring.

Oh, man, I remember the last time I applied for a job downtown. Was late the the interview...twice...because I couldn't find parking. How embarassing.

I'd like to attend the writer/ethics workshop and I'd like to evetually write articles. Would you please let me know when the next workshop will be?

I happened to stumble upon your website in a search for the 'STOP THE POWER GRAB' domain, and I'm really glad i did11!! Thank you for covering the stories online that need to be covered, and to give full prominence to the STPG efforts!!! Many Sacramentans, including myself, are VERY grateful (since the Bee has virtually banned coverage of this effort)....

I began writing my front page story tonight, after joining and setting up my account for the first time. It was lengthy, so I chose to 'save as draft' but now find it is gone! If a draft exceeds the 20,000 characters, does it just wipe out the whole thing? I wish I had saved it somewhere else. Perhaps you can help me: the title was 'Grandparent Alientation Syndrome?' - Dr. Burrill is back in the House
I can't find it anywhere in my profile. Perhaps you can help. PLEASE!

A few Q's -

Are you guys offering internships again? I've been looking and can't find anything, and your "help" section is a bit...odd.

Also wondering if you guys would be interested in working with local college newspapers. You currently have very, very little material and perhaps working something out with local newspapers like CRC or Sac State would help both newspapers and the community. ;)

(Kind of off-topic but clicked on the page for jobs with the SacBee out of curiosity and the page won't load. How telling!)

How can I post a link to my blog?

I just spent some "quality time" on the site. I'm really pleased with the overall quality. Seems like you might consider adding "Education" or "Schools" as a content tab. Many people really care about things related to schools - comparative quality, achievements, interesting students - and the shrunken state of the Bee has created a gap. Maybe an opportunity for differentiation of sacramentopress.com?

I see that a new salon did a 'news' story which is nothing more than an advert.. so how much does Sac Press charge for these adverts?

Why no stories on last night's City Council meeting where the mayor failed to recuse himself from a vote for the city to fund legal remedies for his 'strong mayor' initiative!!! Your little blurb seems just a puff rag for this empty suit mayor and his backers as they pillage our town clean....VERY BAD FORM!

i accidentally left my personal name & phone # in a posting
how can i edit my posting to get it out...?

I have a couple of content suggestions.

1) A good juicy horoscope section, a la 'Minerva' in the SF Chronicle, or Rob Brezhny (sp?) in the SNR, but with an original bent;

2) A good juicy crossword puzzle... As a crossword puzzle addict, I've searched HIGH and LOW for good juicy puzzles, and TRUST ME - - they're RARE across the various newspapers across America... The gold standard is the NYTimes, which is progressively more difficult with each passing day of the week and deliciously esoteric -- but they charge for all but one dated puzzle per week... Another masterful puzzle is by Merl Reagle, published in the LATimes and SFChron, etc., who also pairs with Sylvia Burstein of the LATimes, to make some very interesting puzzles... There are a couple of others, such as the Chicago Sun-Times and NOLA.COM's 'Premier' puzzles, but none of these 'others' are as challenging as the NYTimes... It would be interesting to see if a local could produce something on a par with the Times, either Times, and I guarantee you, if you produce something tough and original and time consuming, you'll have crossword puzzlers and addicts moving heaven and earth to seek your online offerings and ad impression count...

Food for thought....

I just posted my first article. Can I get notified in email when anyone posts a comment? Also, do you provide a click statistics? Like, how many people click on the headline and then continue and click on the storyline? I also wasn't sure how to embed a picture in the article - it asked for a URL and wasn't sure if that meant I needed to have the file hosted elsewhere. Can you help?

And this forum is a little confusing - I can't always tell which answers go to which questions because you don't address the name of the person you're responding to. Would be nice if there was more organized help (a la FAQ) for authors... And a "Preview" button before submitting to post - even Blogger has that.

Hello? "tap, tap" Is this thing on?
