01.01.2017 - Let's Get Started!

Hello 1PPM Community,

Today (8AM), we are already counting 135 forks of the 1PPM Log repository. This means, the 1PPM community could create up to 1620 new projects in 2017! Now that would be exciting!

Thanks to your engagement, 1PPM even made it to the GitHub trending page yesterday. Don't forget to star and tell your friends, maybe we can do that again.

For my 01/2017 project, I am going to create a first version of a 1ppm.club website. Minimum: A JavaScript Page with the HallOfFame page as its "Backend", hosted on Github Pages, live by Jan 31 (latest). (see Issue Tracker). Collaborators are welcome, just contact me via [email protected] or chat.

Also, I am announcing an open 1PPM logo design contest since Scott Hutchenson challenged my mighty MS Paint skills with his fancy photoshopping:

Simply add your submissions to the "logo" folder with name/nickname as filename or post a logo on twitter (make sure to mention @1ppmclub). Voting starts on Jan. 7, probably via Twitter survey.

Happy new year and keep going:
Set a goal, build, release, learn, repeat :)

Regards,
Gerhard

01.01.2017 - POD, Slack, project ideas

Hello 1PPM Community,

As announced, the 1PPM Bot (which is me at first) will publish new projects via @1ppmclub and later in Slack (see issue #23). Probably in the evening (CET) when he has the time ;) Everyday the Bot will pick one or more projects as "project(s) of the day" (#POD) so that everyone can be POD once a month. Feel free to discuss the project ideas, offer contributions and ask for advice, there will be a #pod channel in Slack. (Please be kind, find some tips on giving feedback here)

As mentioned before, we are moving from gitter to Slack, reasons see #23. I am working on an easier invitation method, early adopters can contact me via email ([email protected], Subject: Slack).

There are two 1PPM ideas open for volunteers who are looking for projects: #38 a 1ppm Bot and #39 a HallOfFame to JSON parser. Questions and voluntary notifications in the issue tracker.

Regards,
Gerhard

02.01.2017 - 1ppm.club

Hello 1PPM Community,

Woha, 150 forks and counting! So we are looking forward to 1800+ new projects in 2017? Now that would be something!

Also, almost 40 challengers have already entered the hall of fame. Lots of great stuff there, go have a look around!

In the meantime, I've set up a landing page for 1ppm.club. However, there were some problems with the hexo-excerpt plugin. Any help in this matter would be appreciated, simply contact 1ppm in Slack.

Have a productive week,

Regards, Gerhard

03.01.2017 - 1PPM Rocket Launcher

Hello 1PPM Community,

Just a few days, and 1PPM already inspired me to yet another side-side-...project. I'm presenting you : project Rocket Launch . It's about providing motivation and inspiration, encouraging and boosting project launches.

Also, since 1PPM is step by step attracting new members and twitter followers, this should give you the chance harness the power of the community for your promising projects (so bring your friends in ;)).

I hope that "Rocket Launch" will eventually attract new club members, which will make the Rocket Launcher more powerfull and so on. You see where this is going :)

Have a look at the project, contribute and discuss with me via [email protected] and slack about it!

Note: Please do not post about Rocket Launch on Hacker News etc. yet. When it's time, Rocket Launch is going to launch itself, now how cool is that ;)

Regards,
Gerhard
