UK National Outdoor Bloggers Society?
As the UK outdoors blogging scene starts to gather momentum, what with John's UOBC2007 Roadshow and the meet at the Outdoors Show, I propose a society, a forum, a place away from our blogs, 'comments' areas and OM where we can chat and discuss the future of outdoor blogging and podcasting. Somewhere to talk shop. Then our blogs can concentrate on the outdoors. That's what our readers want.
We need a hero to set up something like this and we need an acronym but maybe the UK National Outdoor Bloggers Society isn't the ideal name ;)
Whatever we call it, it could be a lot of fun. Does this have legs?

It may have legs, but needs some thinking through as to what its intended to achieve, and whether we've any time left to spend on it!
Worth a further post to flesh out the proposal?
Sure thing John - I'll have a think. The main point was to stop talking about blogs on our blogs and start talking outdoors again.
But we do need a place to talk about blogs too!
agreed, but sometimes it saves thinking
;-)
Chris,
I have taken the liberty of setting up such a forum as a temporary google group to see if does indeed have legs.

I am happy to develop and moderate it on the proviso that you are happy for me to do so. It was your idea, so I am equally happy to hand it over
Google groups are quite limited so I would plan to migrate to a full website in due course
thats what we like - a bit of initiative, and someone else doing the real work
;-)
cheers for setting it all up ready, lets see how it goes
Love it - someone tell Aktoman!
Thanks guys!
