I haven't forgot! Two years ago we had the audacity of identifying November 13th as the "Make Slashgeo Known to the Community Day".
Before I serve you the same ramblings than last year, let me remind you of our 5-years anniversary and unavoidable statistics. And the good news is we finally are running on a modern engine... now just little more time is required to squeeze the best out of it. We're slowly getting there.
I can't believe I took a few minutes to build a Facebook page for Slashgeo.org! Don't hesitate to "like" this page, even if it is mostly empty at the moment. I also have a Slashgeo Twitter account (which is more of a personal account), and no, you won't get our usual aggregated geonews stories from that source, our RSS feed is there for this purpose. Among the creation of our Facebook page, I found out someone already "stole" the "/Slashgeo" page on that social network. Strange. Maybe even stranger, is the Slashgeo account on YouTube, used by nothing less than a group of spanish singers! :-) Life can be surprising... well, it has already been 4 years that Slashgeo.org's dot-com counterpart started serving p0rn! :-)
So, here's what the "MSKC Day" is all about: "It's November 13th again! Your mission is the same and still very simple: if you like the site and find it useful, you must tell one of your colleagues about Slashgeo.org.
[...]
As I said last year, our small team of volunteers provides this geonews aggregation service for a community we love and we want to make sure people who might benefit from it actually know that it exists! It takes only a minute to send an email and fulfill your mission :-) (with enough missions accomplished, you'll gain experience and levels and be able to develop new geospatial skills ;-)"
