A blog is a blog is a blog. But a website can be much more than that.
For me, that was pretty much the idea when I started this blog/facebook page. To have a website that could include the blog, a calendar of Denver comedy, and hopefully some interactive spots where comics could create profiles or there could be a feed or something weird and possibly unique.
I started looking for domain names last night. Unfortunately, a ton of obvious ones are taken. Including DenverComedy.com. So that leaves me a little between a rock and a hard place. New name perhaps? Additionally, I've checked out the abandoned MileHiComedy page and they definitely had some good stuff going. If anyone has any thoughts or experiences with that, feel free to shoot me an email at Nicole.Qualtieri@hotmail.com
Another thing that I've been wanting to do is to start a Denver comedian of the week. Basically, I'm going to put together ten questions, email or facebook message them off to a comic about town, hope they answer it, and then post it on the blog. I'll get that going for next wk and hopefully get rolling on that pretty quickly. I like that already. Fun for all.
I've made this plea before. And I shall again. By all means, I would love to have more people doing reviews, interviews, humor pieces, whatever strikes your fancy. You don't have to be the greatest writer. I'm definitely not, but I do like to edit so really, it's not a problem. I'm open to anything as long as it somehow relates back to comedy. Photography is welcome. As is anything else that anyone could cook up.
And I've got some other things cooking in my brain. But I want to run them by some of the comedians and get a firsthand account on those ideas. So if you catch me at a show and are curious, ask away.
In the meantime, if you think of a name that might be a little more awesome than the one that has no domain, let me know.

DenCom would be nice, half words and half acronym; it's a shortened form of Denver comedy that will be easy to say and write.
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot of energy lately and it is really great! I'm enjoying your writing and activity!
Rock on!
Love the idea of a "Comedian of the Week".
ReplyDeleteMake it "DenverCommies.com," and then we'll organize like a hundred comedians to march through downtown holding the old Soviet banner.
ReplyDeleteTHAT'LL get us some press.
Speaking of: I need, like, a dozen comics to show up tomorrow night at the Blue Mood in Littleton.
Or, like FIVE really good ones would be okay, too. ;<}
