this story gives you some more ideas of this project site.

• project history
• newsletter
• archives
• imprint

Our aim goes as following:

• EuroScience.Net >> bits, reviews and comments on science
• press coverage of science bits are tagged by in the media
• some of our own work is tagged as reference
• by tagging the items we want to share information

the older stories line in the typolis default layout is somewhat misleading just besides the most recent story. to locate "older stories" at the bottom of the page, and "newer stories" at the top of previous stories listings, you have to go to layouts -> frontpage and change the code into

<div id="pageNavigation">
    <% response.prevpage %>
</div>

<!--<div id="innercontent">-->
    <% response.storylist %>
<!--</div>-->

<div id="pageNavigation">
    <% response.nextpage %>
</div>

thus the storylist <% response.storylist %> is bracketed by the "newer stories" on top and "older stories" at the bottom.

• in April 2006 we move the project to the typolis: platform
• since Oct 2005, we syndicate our stories to the AthenaWeb portal, an European exchange platform for science films
• in Dec 2004 Christian Nielsen writes on our project on the EU commission's website >> eudec2004 (pdf, 136 KB)
• in Dec 2004 the German science writers' organisation Wissenschafts-Pressekonferenz publishs a project note of EuroScience.Net (in German) >> wpkdec2004 (pdf, 126 KB)
• in Nov 2004 we present our project on a German science writers' conference in Bremen/Germany

miscellaneous: in July 2004 we install a weblog-featured content management system based on Antville; thus all contributors can feed in their pieces directly  ***  we submit a proposal within the FP6 EU framework programme in Dec 2003; not accepted in Jan 2004  ***  in Sep 2003 application for ESOF2004 with two workshops, both in the thematic track "Communicating Science"; not accepted in Dec 2003  ***  EuroScience.Net is online since August 22, 2003  ***  the summary news feature on the European media's science coverage is installed (August 17, 2003)  ***  Gero von Randow provides his talk on science writing, thus we have the critical mass for the website (August 2, 2003)  ***  Philip Campbell provides his talk on nanotech and science communications, essential to start a debate on nanotech (July 25, 2003)  ***  test site available since July  ***  project plan is done in June/July 2003  ***  start of the project in June 2003

actually, to change the part of the navigation sidebar that is the same for all users, call it 'user navigation', you have to access a hidden skin: go layouts -> navigation -> navigation bar for contributors and change in the bowser's path the contribnavigation by usernavigation. Now you may change the [blog] Home and tags lines.
Just think like the developers think.
