Hi NS,

I started a blog apart of my Uni Project that aims to remember the skiers who have passed away in the ski community. I invite you guys to have a look and post your own thoughts on my blog under the "thoughts and condolences page" and if you any suggestions please post here. It's only in it's initial stages but it hopefully will grow to something permanent for the ski-community to post in. Visit here: http://memorial-freeski.tumblr.com/ to have a look.

Thankyou

Thankyou for the support... I wasn't sure how the public of NS would respond to this and I am glad you see it as a good thing. Cheers!

Interesting idea. I'm guessing English is not your first language?

What makes you say this?
I am an Australian of english speaking background.
Are you trying to infer something here or was that a legitimate question?

I Invite you guys to write your own comments/ dedication http://memorial-freeski.tumblr.com/submit so that the page can grow. If you haven't got a tumblr page don't worry you can still write a message. I have started so let's keep this going!

Seems like there's enough people who'd be down to just get a website.


Forever immortalize the fallen with there videos, pictures, and a comment section to keep the memories of the good times alive.

The blog allows you to do this and i guess it is pretty much a site.

Tumblr gives me the tools to create what i want, where as if i made my own site it would take me considerable time and skills to develop a descent running site, which in this day i don't have

The more people who contribute to writing their own posts for submission and ask questions etc the more interactive it will become.
