"...to have something in a humorous vein, pointing out the esoteric backgrounds and foibles/idiosyncrasies of each individual (past and present)...in the Cosmic Ray Group. It might be a useful memory jogger when we are doddering around in a nursing home! As well as regular luncheon attendees, it would be aimed at those who, for various reasons, are unable to attend. In addition to the factual history I think it would be great to include as much human interest and humorous material as possible."
A straw poll showed some enthusiasm for the concept, so I have jumped in and initiated this in the only platform I am familiar with - Google's Blogger - which has the advantage of requiring no technical expertise - and is free!
Although I have included some very rudimentary material to get things rolling, it is essential that as many people as possible add their memories and anecdotes to this team blog. Beware - I will be keeping track of anyone who has NOT contributed - with the aim of naming and shaming them!
To begin with, anyone on the internet who sees the site will be able to read the material on it. (We can make it more exclusive if people so wish). To publish a post, or to comment on someone else's post or tab, you have to have a Google account and become a member of the team (via the administrator - viz. LG to start with). Both are very simple to do. Better still everyone should become an administrator so as to add, delete or edit any and all the material on the blog. It will then operate in an anarchic way - a bit like Wikipedia. Alternatively, just send me, by email, any material you wish to include, and I will insert it on your behalf.
Over to you...
