Site News

I've started figuring out how to edit the template. Don't be surprised to see a lot of design changes in the immediate future.

Now accepting listings in the following categories: classical-music related events (not necessarily concerts but must be open to the public); instruments for sale (including estate/consignment sales); sheet music collections, CD or record collections for sale; classical-music-related organizations, either nonprofit or for profit. All at no charge or obligation.

~~Fix the blog navigation~~ And you'll notice that in both the top and the right-hand navigation sidebar, and in the top box, is a link for Read the Blog!

~~I've continued the CSS redesign and some of the colours are a bit off but I'm fixing them, slowly but surely. To-do is to fix the link colours and the way the links behave.~~ Done!

~~Break up the FAQ pages and tried to make navigation between them easy.~~ Done!

~~Add subscribe links to sidebar by popular poll.~~ Done!
~~Next is to reorganize keywords into drop-down menus as it is just getting too unwieldy.~~ Done!

~~Redo citations so that anchor text reflects authors' names.~~ Done. I wanted them to be able to search for their own names and find my entries. Also, their moms should know that someone is reading their work!

~~Add RSS feeds~~ Done!
Apply and refine CSS (and also add to Amazon store)
Change the "Pages" link so it browses the pages not in the blog. Or at least add a link to browse the non-blog pages only.
Change "Talk" to "Comment" if possible
~~Add map to studio~~ Done!
~~Finish captioning composers~~ Done except for Puccini, whose name is too long!
Figure out how to add "Friends" (Control panel option)
~~Add legal and medical disclaimers~~ Done!
~~Write guest contributor policy~~ Done!

The Unlikely Entrepreneur was named one of the top 100 music education blogs, after six months of existence.

Call for editors: If you know of a current events arts, music or dance festival, performance, recital, competition, etc. I encourage you to edit the "Current Events" page to add it or leave it as a comment for I or my site editor to do it. Once I begin receiving contributions I will break it up into regional districts.

My current project is working on a keyword map, using xmind mind mapping software and integrating it into the wiki.
