I have been working like crazy the past couple of days to get a new feature up and running on the Chip and Company website. One of the biggest questions from my writers are how can we make the website feel more like a community?
So Jeff my server guy and I bounced around a few ideas and scoured the interwebs looking for inspiration. While most bloggers LOVE the Disqus comment system it is kinda lacking in the community feel. Most comments get posted but does not really engage you the viewers..
I love the idea of a Forum but I really dislike the idea of having a separate identity or a totally separate page to have to visit. So Jeff and I worked on a way to make the Chip and Company site and Disney Forum intermingle with each other.
After 2 grueling days of non stop work I present to you the first ever Chip and Company Disney News & Views Discussion Board! I was able to take the best of the Chip and Company Website and the Best of a Forum and combine them together to make this very cool feature.
Here are some of the really cool things you can do on the Chip and Company Disney News & Views Discussion Board:
- Now while you are checking out the articles on the website you can click the link at the bottom of each article where you can join the Disney Discussion.
- Earn ranks while you comment and try to Rule the Roost of our Discussion Board.
- Meet and Hang out with our writers. Ask them questions, learn more about them, and find out tips and tricks to the parks that they haven’t shared in an article yet.
- Share other Disney articles from around the net or send some traffic to your Disney Blog
- Login using your Facebook/Google/AOL/Open ID accounts so signing up is easy!
- I uploaded some very cool and unique avatars for your profile that you might want to check out. or you can use your own.
While some of these features are very cutting edge others are there to help all of us come together as a community and discuss our greatest passion DISNEY!
You can get there by visiting the homepage and clicking on Join the Discussion at the top of the page, click on the link inside the article your reading, and finally you can just visit http://www.chipandco.com/forum/chip-and-company/
