Suggestions for Site Change

Summary: A reader's suggestion regarding the improvement of Techrights and its community's operation

Some days ago we reached out for advice and for suggestions from loyal readers. One piece of feedback that we received was exceptionally good and we asked for permission to share it. "Suggestions for Techrights," the message was titled and it contains this very detailed attachment [PDF] that we encourage people to read and give us feedback on. Should we implement the suggested changes? And if not, why not? Please take a moment to read it.



Adding to the above we have:



Grüß Gott Herr Schestowitz,

Yes, indeed, please do share what you would find of value for your readers/colleagues, as the idea was just that, to get them involved, by focusing upon the purpose of your website to be “applied” and put into action. Das Eisen schmieden, solange es heiß ist!

Some additional thoughts…

Girl

“The great moral question of the twenty-first century is this: if all knowing, all culture, all art, all useful information can be costlessly given to everyone at the same price that it is given to anyone; if everyone can have everything, anywhere, all the time, why is it ever moral to exclude anyone?”

Fate is for those too weak to determine their own destiny, right?

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams!

What is freedom to do everything if you have the ability to do nothing?

shortsightedness: The support of public policies that are mutually exclusive, or contrary to the country’s long-term interests!

Liberty is the prevention of control by others, while Freedom is the emancipation from the arbitrary rule of other men, right?

Intellectual freedom is the right of every individual to both seek and receive information from all points of view without restriction. It provides for free access of all expressions of ideas through which any and all sides of a question, cause or movement may be explored.

Freedom of the mind requires not only, or not even especially, the absence of legal constraints but the presence of alternative thoughts. The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity, but the one that removes awareness of other possibilities.

Great souls have wills; feeble ones have only wishes and little minds are tamed and subdued by misfortunes; but great minds rise above them!

Now is the best time to intelligently apply tomorrows future today!

The great thing in this world is not so much where you stand, as in what direction you are moving. Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.

Alles Gute,

Prinz Kröte



We are always happy to receive such encouraging feedback. Please, dear readers, tell us what you think about Kröte's PDF. We have been distributing site duties recently, in order to increase and improve output.
