A science forum of which I am the administrator

[hallenrm]

Lately the University of Delhi has given me the responsibility of initiating a forum for its science community. The forum is now three months old; although it is not as rich and mature as Hypography it is growing. I would like the invite the 'reputed' members of Hypography to visit it, and let me know their reactions here. The forum is called Vimarsh

Good going!

If I were you, I'd just tweak the front page a little, and you should be all set and ready to rumble! (Maybe include science news headlines as a feed on the front page?)

Thanks, Boerseun, I have that in mind, but have to wait for awhile before sone internal problems are sorted out. Also I am waiting for the release of Olympus (Phpbb 3) to launch a portal page.

good display, varieties of subforums and intereseting topics. Like you said, it is been going on for 3 months so keep up the hard work and within year or so your member listing will shot up . Also you/DU should also try to get DU students involve in this as well so more interaction can take place (i.e. instead of you posting most of the topic, other people will post new topics too).
also may be a subforum on computers, computer science since it is a hot topic in india right now.

so only thing left to do is to spread the word.

Thanks indeed, I do plan to have direct interaction with the community members in colleges and science departments in the next academic session. During these interactions I plan to demonstrate the forum alive and show them what is where and answer several "how to" questions. I hope to find at least a dozen enthusiastic members. We aso plan to reward good posts
