Coordinating people and tracking projects (Re: Releasing My Copyright)

[colonel]

Hey everybody,

I just read the news about Steve completely dropping his copyrights on all of his materials except for the book. This is HUGE news and a gigantic opportunity especially for all of us members of Steve's community!

I myself have no particular ideas yet as to what I could get excited about doing with the materials. BUT I definitely know that I'd like to coordinate people and projects and keep track of what's happening in this regard in our community.

So if there is a need for that -- and I think there is or at least will be once most people have read and understood what Steve's move means -- we can do the following:

If you would like to set up a project and are looking for more people, if you want to team up with others, if you would just like to brainstorm ideas or so, then put your information down below, with this suggested format:

Denis Andrejew (* you don't have to use your real name, neither do you have to provide a facebook link or similar)
Roles:

• Team/Project Lead
• Development / Webdesign & Co
• Writing (English, German)

Project Ideas:

• Publishing core SP.com content in German
• Organizing and hosting German seminars / workshops based on Steve's workshop and website content, though combining it with other teachings such as Abraham-Hicks, Bashar, NVC, ... could be anything really that works for us

Notes:
Your Name -- real name or nick name or w/e, make it a Facebook link if you can
Roles -- which roles could you fulfill on a team? Don't include stuff here you wouldn't really enjoy doing.
Project Ideas -- completely optional, though even if you don't feel like sharing your specific ideas it still might be helpful to others if you give at least a hint at what you're thinking, e.g. "translation Russian".
Putting everything in a "quote" tag might make it a bit easier to track stuff, that's why that's there.


Already existing projects

If you already know well what project you would like to run, use the following format:

Project: German CGW (Project Lead: Denis Andrejew)
The project's mission is to create a website with core SP.com content in German, then organize and deliver a CGW-style workshop in Germany (Berlin?).
Status: Team Setup & Brainstorming
Looking for more:

• Workshop speakers
• "Translators" (it'll be more than just translating of course)
• Vocabulary Developers (haha yeah, I think we'd need to figure out a consistent vocabulary for the content in German so we could use it throughout the site and workshop!)
• Workshop helpers in general, would love to have someone in the team who has run or helped run at least a couple of workshops before!

Current Team:

• Denis Andrejew: Project Lead, Workshop Host

Notes:
As "Status" use something that describes what stage your project is in currently (some examples would be: Brainstorming, Team Setup, Started).


Questions and feedback appreciated!

Now let's get ready to rumble and help the human consciousness evolve!

[Pavel Alasheev]

Project: Complete Russian mirror of StevePavlina.com
My role:

• Team Lead
• Investor
• Website development / coding
• Translator

Notes:
I am afraid that a few volunteers (including me) will not be enough to translate this huge volume of articles in any realistic timeframe, so i am thinking about hiring professional translators.
As far as the financial side of this goes, i do not really seek to make a lot of money from this project as an investor. I would like to make just enough money to cover the cost of webhosting, paid translators, etc. The rest (assuming we make any money at all ) can go partly to Steve, partly to charities.
I am posting this here in order to find co-investors, or any other people who are willing to participate in this project.

Project: Everything that you guys'll be doing: translating, workshops, ... but in Dutch
My role: Everything for now
Status: brainstorming

It's still vague, but I'm thinking.

I'm not expecting many people from this board to jump on this project, but I can recruit some fellow people from Belgium and Holland.

Update: stevepavlina.be is mine! - .nl was already taken.

My project ideas so far

"Steve Pavlina Brainwashing" - I have Social Oomph Upgrade...which means...on twitter I can set unlimited batches of tweets that automatically post and rotate around forever without me having to do anything. They say for a person to change, that person needs repetition of new thoughts and ideas to their brain. So if I have 500-1000 tweets or more in the batch, it would be like "brainwashing" inspiration and improvement into your life quite rapidly etc.

Undecided so far on -

should i make a twitter account exclusively all about general insightful steve pavlina snippets?

Should I make a twitter feed exclusively about steve pavlina snippets focused on making money??

Or should I just add insightful steve pavlina snippets to the twitter feeds I already have? Such as "end lack" a new twitter feed I started about yes, "advice & knowledge on ending lack" and this would be a combination of steve pavlina snippets as well as other helpful quotes or insightful snippets I come up with?

Or I could do ALL of the above?

[Aryeh Enoch]

A collection of motivational quotes and saying. Some are written by Steve and some, myself. We'll see how it goes.

Twitter

[Aryeh Enoch]

I have uploaded every single one of Steve's newsletters (with an exception of the second). The download can be found here.

[roxyruby]

I am excited, I have begun breaking up and schedualing Steve Pavlina's material for a Twitter account

Doing this is reminding me how brilliant his material it.

I am so excited....The tweets are schedualed to begin appearing in 20 minutes.....

I will show you when some of the tweets have appeared so you will get an idea of what this 24-hour - every 20 minutes - Twitter Feed will be like

[Aryeh Enoch]

I have now made the entire archive of Steve's newsletters available in a public Google Docs folder. Link can be found in my signature. Enjoy everyone!

Glad I could help. Out of curiosity, how can you use the newsletters to benefit your Twitter? Thanks for your time.

i break the main insights from the newsletter up into tweet sized bites then schedule them into the twitter feed to post continually and automatically along with all the other tweet sized insights. No. Thank-YOU ^-^

I see. Do you use SocialOomph or something of that nature? How many Twitter accounts do you have or do you just use one main one? How do you get people to follow you? Sorry, I don't use Twitter much.

[roxyruby]

Yes SocialOomph, I love it!!! Yer, I'm a bit of a Twitter Freak =) I know twitter is not as popular like facebook and not everyone uses it, also cause it's something fairly new, but i find it to be extremely helpful for the particular niches I am interested in.

I have probably created over 10 twitter feeds now

i get ideas and start twitter feeds

not all of them work out...

most of the time i think it's cause of not being totally happy with the name of the twitter feed then having to start a whole new one to make a new name!!!

i got lots of followers fast by going to twitter feeds similar to what my content it about and adding [i mean following] all their followers.

Otherwise, just post tweets that are amazing and wonderful for your particular niche and people Retweet your tweets and then it spreads like that i think!

my most successful so far is Social Anxiety Help (NoSocialAnxiety) on Twitter with about 11,500 followers

[roxyruby]

ok here is the twitter thread posting tweets from steve pavlinas material about making money and financial freedom

Most of the tweets may be from Steves material however I also add in my own tweets that I find helpful

End Lack (endlack) on Twitter

[roxyruby]

hahahahah I got so used to writing out quotes from steves material like " (quote) " - Steve Pavlina

that I was writing out quotes of my own material and realized I was putting - Steve Pavlina at the end of my own quotes as if he said it!!! lol!!!

I'm pretty sure there isn't a name for this condition, but if there were, I think it would be RAD: Rampant Attribution Disorder.
