After 25th March 2014 writing exercise, a question came up about how do we keep a log of the exercises and its contents (refer this). In response to the same, I propose that we keep a log of the chat conversation this way:
I was thinking about how we can keep a log of all the writing exercises. Each week after the session is over, the person who initiated the chat can post on Meta: Week : Writing Exercise
with details about the topic and the number of people participated. All the people who wrote/shared links can then put their writing as an answer. In case the person is not a member of Writers, someone else could post it on his/her behalf.
Advantages:
Easily accessible record of all the topics and the writings (along with the links)
Users who missed the chat can quickly find out the details of the exercise
People who read this later might find it interesting enough to participate in the subsequent week
People who are not keen on writing but are keen on reading can find content here without having to hunt it up by loading past conversations on chat
People can paste the actual content (instead of links) for a more permanent record
What do you all think? Opinions? Criticism?
