St Dominic and the Web
08/August/2007 Filed in:
JottingsThis is a good day to respond to some of the comments made by web site users. St Dominic was always ready to engage in discussion, and if he were alive today, no doubt he would be making use of everything the internet has to offer to get his arguments across. First, a reply to those who wonder why certain items have not yet appeared. The absence of material on the Press is a sign of work in progress. The Veilpress pages will probably be among the last to go up because we are cudgelling our brains how best to convey Fine Printing and its sister arts on a web page. One of our projected online stores will be devoted to printing, so please be patient if you are dismayed by the jollity of the present Giftware. We are also exploring ways of archiving podcasts and including an occasional extended podcast, possibly even a video podcast: at the moment, the only affordable solution seems to be via an external podcast site, the link to which will be posted in the sidebar. Finally, we are at work on a FAQ and more information about St Benedict, the Rule and kindred subjects. It all takes time, but our aim is to keep the site as simple and useful as possible which means gradual growth rather than a once-for-all launch of a "completed" project. If you have any constructive suggestions to make, please do so.
