Some Cool Stuff Coming Your Way Soon!

As most of you would’ve known, Bryan Smith recently joined the TechZone Online Team. He has been appointed the position of writer, and you can look forward to some interesting posts from him, on his opinions about technology and the world we live in (welcome, Bryan!!)

Now, recently, I’ve been in discussions with Bryan on what projects TechZone should undertake in 2008. Well, we came up with some interesting ideas, and here’s a preview of what might be coming soon to T|Z! (Mind, these are just ideas, and therefore they’re not set in stone! We value our readers advice, and therefore you’re welcome to make suggestions using the comment control.)

• TechZone Tech14

“Unleash The Power of Technology”. Tech14 will be an online “conference” (or discussion, for want of an apt description) using Google Groups. Basically (as the name suggests), the discussion will last for 14 days (two weeks), where you are invited to participate in discussing certain topics.

There will also be a “Developer’s Showcase”, where aspiring software developers can showcase their latest creations to the world.

No date has been confirmed for Tech14, however visit the blog regularly for further updates.

• BeatBox Studio

BeatBox will allow anybody to create their own music by use of preset loops. A way of chilling out and taking a break from reading all the amazing articles on TechZone!

• Writer’s Block (working title)

Writer’s Block, an idea by Bryan, is similar to the Developer’s Showcase which is planned for Tech14. However, this will be a place for developers, programmers, coders, call them (us) what you want… to hang out, speek Geek and share our creations and ideas with the world wide coding community. The title is a codename, but tell us what you think about it, and maybe we’ll just use it!

So, that’s about most of the ideas that we’ve been discussing at our “important” TechZone Online meetings. There were other ideas and issues that were discussed, most of which were admin. Look out for some of these features, downloading soon to a computer near you!
