I now know what I'm going to make the basic topic of my website.
After reading this thread:
http://www.quake3world.com/forum/viewto ... 93&start=0
I got a grand idear; Make a section dedicated to providing articles from all over the internet revealing the 'truth' about the American goverment and/or corporations funded by the government.
I haven't seen all too many websites like this and I think it would really create some conversation on my empty as fuck forums
What do you guys think? Know any sites that have articles I could use for quotage?

Christ, I hope you're got enough bandwidth allowance to cope with all the visitors.
I'd say about 500k a year should do it.

Woah. Taking articles from other sites and transplanting them onto your own is sure to garner worldwide recognition and controversy.

What's wrong with the scrollbars? They're scrolling fine for me.

I don't really have the....um, what do you call it...reputation? to be able to meet important people and gather information for my own articles. Think of it as a site that brings it all together for now i.e. bringing articles to the mainstream croud (me, my friends, anyone who's a casual web surfer and probably wouldn't think of going to other sites, so instead they end up on mine

)

So what you really want to do is start your own blog.

I thought you might.
Setting up a page where you pick and select content from around the web and post it up for your friends and family to read.
It's a blog. Face it.

Hey, how about having an idea first, and then starting a site? Not the other way around.
