Empire Avenue

Reasonblogs has a ticker at the popular Social networking/marketing website Empire Avenue. Empire Avenue is a wonderful way to get an indication of a specific person or company’s e-value as seen from several “social influence” measurements. The site itself lets ticker owners sell stock in themselves to other users in the way stocks are traded on the open market.

Check out REASONBLOGS at Empire Avenue.

Categorizing blogs in a reasonable manner

5 January, 2011 Leave a comment

In the course of developing the website,  planning stages need to be fully disclosed to prevent any potentially unsatisfactory results in the websites appearance or functionality. While all parties (readers online) cannot be satisfied, the site should attempt to ensure about 80% get an experience that is easy to comprehend, navigate and use on a daily basis.

The blogs themselves should be categorized, instead of being lumped into arbitrary “Popular” measurements and “New” measurements. Also, it would be useless to lump them into a long list based on nothing at all. So, the following breakdown has been proposed and will, no doubt, be refined as time goes on.

  • Politics – Blogs dealing with promoting reason in politics, constitutional values and other politically motivated blogs from skeptics/atheists/rationalists (USSCoco.reasonblogs.org)
  • Philosophy – Blogs about philosophical context or inquiry (too many examples to name them all.
  • General Interest – Blogs about Science, Sports, Entertainment, Movies, Music… all through the lens of reason, skepticism or rationalism
  • Atheism – Blogs of interest to nonbelievers (AA Blog, FFRF blog)
  • Activism – Blogs of note or interest about activist efforts, or ideas
  • Comedy – Blogs about reason/skepticism/atheism/etc that are humorous in nature
  • Charity – Secular charity blogs, or charity blog posts of note (MSF/RSF blog)
  • News – Blogs on current events through a reasonable or rationalist/skeptic/atheist perspective (Young Turks‘ many blogs)

These are in no specific order, and all readers should remember that the point of reasonblogs.org is to facilitate the need of people to seek out blogs where REASON is applied.

Reasonblogs.org appreciates Carol E. Roper for asking the important question that lead to this posting.
