June 4, 2009 at 14:09The state is me? or thoughts on bigstreet.ru
I decided to write just a little about what is. Why did I call the post “the state is me? “
The fact is that I am the owner of the Bigstreet.ru project and actually everything that is there is my patrimony. But the question is - is it mine?
Or all the same, those people who go to the project, watch what happens, slowly monitor, download, install. I will say this is their territory, and my task is to improve the engine, and to come to the aid of a user who does not understand something as a lifebuoy. Slowly over the past month more than 20 edits in the code appeared, what users have long wanted was compiled and supplemented.
Of course, sometimes there are "schools", but in development without them in any way.
Doing something new or introducing the old, for convenience, is also a dilemma. And here also standard-non-standard hosting where projects need to be set in different ways. There are a lot of questions, why are some normal, but we have errors? And here the main trouble is that we never read even short installation descriptions and system requirements descriptions.
But by and large - this is our problem - because the user wants to install from once and work with the engine. Actually, this is exactly how the first install appeared, imperfect, but still.
And in the distant, ancient times bigstreet.rucreated as a clone of a habr, but now I decided that cloning is not for us. We need our own, creative approach, and an approach that would be universal both for single projects for one user, and for a project for a multi-thousand audience. And here, in fact, there are such necessary additions as CNC, Twitter header integration, RSS import-export, and copyright overlay on images. On the one hand, everything is very simple, and on the other hand, thoughts, user tips.
And if we are already talking about cleanliness, then I would like the new bigstreet.ru to be “MAXI”
and at the same time had minimal configuration and SEO settings.
And in conclusion, the state is not me, I am not the king, I, I, I, .... I’m exactly the same equal user of this engine as those who develop it, or just use it. And then our slogan “people to people” will really work.
Therefore, criticism and assistance to the project is what helps to develop and improve it.

And if we are already talking about cleanliness, then I would like the new bigstreet.ru to be “MAXI”
- most user friendly
- had the maximum opportunity for user-generated content
- had the maximum return on advertising for users
and at the same time had minimal configuration and SEO settings.
