Hello, Me and few friends got together and got idea that would be nice if we started new new YouTube channel specialized in all things technology, mostly smartphones. We also have started designing high quality website (phone reviews, news, specs, info).. But, insufficient funds are keeping us off from doing it right way with high quality content.. If anyone would like to help and donate here is the link on funding campaign.

Moderators, please feel free to move this to another forum if it doesn't fit here.
There are currently no Usenet groups for Android software or supported trans-coded video files. There are advantages to hosting these files on Usenet, rather than on this, or other websites. Please PM me if you would like to hear my opinion. I will not discuss this openly.
I would like to propose one be created, but actual new group additions to Usenet are a pain in the rear and require a community backing.
Is anyone else here familiar with the process?
I have never added a group myself, but I have worked for a Usenet provider and know that it is not a simple process. It would require a proposal in the alt.control newsgroup, as well as a discussion and justification of the group between supporters and the ISC (www.isc.org). For this, we need people to speak up and support our group in the alt.control newsgroup.
Notice how I say OUR group. I propose the group be un-moderated, because suggesting a moderated group requires a lot more organization, time, and discussion before the ISC will consider the addition.
Again, if anyone has actually undergone the addition of a new group, please speak up. If no one has, but people are interested, I will try to work with Usenet assistance groups on getting a group added.
Thoughts?
I'd be surprised if a quarter of this forum knows what a newsgroup is.

Ahh, well if there is not a community interest, I won't pursue it. In my opinion, the brightest people use this site, so I'm only posting here.
I guess then, I am one of the 25%. I gave up on usenet years ago when the content to spam ratio got too bad.
I still grin when I think of alt.barney.die.die.die
I guess it all depends on what exactly the OP wants out of a newsgroup. These days most interest groups / communities on the internet form around http-based services like forums and bulletin boards. There are also hybrid http/email mailing list type things. Generally the whole of the Android community is well served by these tools already. Between the various fansites (phandroid, androidguys, etc), the Google android-discuss groups, xda-dev, and #[email protected], I think there are plenty of points on the internet as-is for all comers alike.
Of course, then theres the modern-day usage of usenet, which is not so much discussion-centric rather than a no-holds-barred haven for digital piracy and pretty much every kind of porn under the sky.
I'm sure most everyone is already aware, through other sites, or facebook, or twitter, but I just wanted to post it here too. CassDroid aka Cassy Wright passed away on Sunday. The details are unclear but there was a lot of unusual activity and posts on her facebook account.
I wanted to also propose some form of donation page for her family. I can't personally start it up, but I would hope that one of the XDA Admins would be willing to; I can pass along her family's contact info to whomever does take that responsibility.
Cassy was a valued member of the Android community with her friendly personality, her wit, and her vast knowledge of a large majority of the spectrum of Android phones. Many have already posted notes of condolence to her family and close friends.
Google is your friend if you want more posts/details.
Edit: Donation page already up by her friends

Can a cooperative social networking site that allocates shares between users take on Facebook? Zurker's founder Nick Oba thinks so.
Zurker's USP is that users are "coowners and investors" in the platform. By joining Zurker and inviting your friends, you get issued with "vShares". A vShare is a virtual share which you can monitor on your profile. You can buy additional vShares for $1 (£0.62) and one vShare is the equivalent to ownership of 1/1,000,000th of the Zurker in your territory -- eg Zurker UK or Zurker USA.
The project isn't promising anyone to break the bank or turn into a millionaire overnight. Zurker just gives that opportunity, but it doesn't promise anything. On the other hand, the chances for making some good money with Zurker are not bad and the uniqueness of the project makes everyone succeed together.
So, In a way Zurker promises to award you real shares and a chance to earn some free money if it ever strikes gold.

Hi everyone. I was selected as one of the 60 finalists for the OP3 peer review team, and now I need your help getting into the top 30, and what better place to come to than xda? Currently I sit at 31, and every vote counts. You can vote for me here: (You will have to remove the space before the .net and .eu)

I'm also the #1 Canadian candidate, and the #3 North American, so if you're from here, show some love

Now, the things I mainly want to cover are the battery life, strength of the cell signal, fluidity of the OS, and temperature measuring during daily and extensive use. I am posting here not just as a way to get votes, but as a sort of request-taking procedure. If there are any specific things you would like tested (besides putting it in a blender, I don't work for BlendTech) I am willing to do them and contribute that to my official review, which I will link here. If you have any questions regarding myself, my plans on what to test on the phone, or anything else, I am more than willing to answer any and all questions. Thanks for your support!
Hi!
You are welcome to enjoy XDA as it's meant for, info, sharing, helping, etc. But it's not a place to rally others for votes for off site endeavours. :good:
Please, no duplicate threads either.

Okay before anything else, not sure if this is permitted by the forum rules, so let me mention the mods, @dottat, @Sloth, @Stephen, @SynisterWolf and apologize to you guys in advance if Im breaking the rules here. Please delete this thread if this is not allowed, but bear no malice towards me for it was unintentional
I'm one of the top 60 selected out of 15,282 applicants to conduct a peer review of the OnePlus 3. I have been active here on the Samsung forums, and you can see my posts/contributions thru my profile. If you are willing and able to, I would very much appreciate your vote for my essay on the OnePlus Lab page. The 30 with the most votes will get a chance to conduct an early review of the phone at launch.
My plan for the review is to focus on experiences because the usual technical benchmarks and such will follow immediately anyway. If you have any specific requests or ideas that you would like me to take up IF I get a phone for review, please let me know here. Thanks in advance to anybody who votes for me and shares my essay on their social networks. And once again, apologies to the mods if I broke the rules!
