| Water Cooler |
| Water Cooler News | |
|---|---|
| The news section of the water cooler is used for news or updates that are expected to require public discussion, rather than, say, specific actions, or discussion on their own talk pages. Centiare milestones should be posted at Centiare:Announcements; all other news should go to the community bulletin board. | |

Entity Relational Tags
The entity (government) relational (rollup) tags are ready for use. (Since there'll always be additions & modifications, I won't say finished.) If you start at the United States, you can drill down into the respective states, counties, cities, districts (school, sanitation, etc), organizations (little league, etc), departments (state fish & game), etc.
Note also the attribute names for each entity, along with the different categories. The use of modular names for relations, attributes & categories provides, in essence, a 3x3 matrix. This means one can ask very powerful, and highly granular, queries to get detailed & linked results.
I will be writing up a technical overview explaining how these tags work, but I figured people might be interested in using them immediately. Snerfling 12:31, 19 January 2007 (PST)
Greg's Interview
In case anyone missed it, Greg was interviewed by the Associated Press regarding his views about Microsoft and paid editing at Wikipedia. Follow the link here to read the full story. Snerfling 13:58, 24 January 2007 (PST)
Greg's appearance on G4 television
Centiare's co-developer will be making his first national TV appearance -- LIVE -- Thursday night, January 25th. He will be on Attack of the Show at approximately 7:10 PM Eastern. This is broadcast on the G4 network -- proudly ranking # 57 out of the 64 major basic cable networks.
Satellite DirecTV Channel 354 Dish Network Channel 191 or 515
Cable Verizon FiOS Channel 320 Comcast Channel 136 Click! Channel 163 Time Warner Cable Channel 105 Cablevision Channel 175
I hope you'll join me by watching! We'll be discussing the various problems associated with commercial participation within Wikipedia. (I hope to plug Centiare.com about 5 or 6 times, too.)
For more about G4, there's always... Wikipedia's article about G4.

Front page news?
Personally, I think this should go on Centiare's front page for at least a couple of weeks. We need to show our visitors that they are on a site that's already getting page views that are competitive with other major business, news, and academic sites. Our users need to tell their friends about Centiare, to keep this figures moving up, which will only help their own content get more attention. --MyWikiBiz 20:08, 28 January 2007 (PST)
