    What about an "Art on Display" group?

      Yes, if we go down that road, where does it end? A group just for pictures of kids. A group for cooking. A group for video games. A group for anything. If any particular topic is worth of a group, the question should be "is it worthy of a community"? If cooking, for example, was so important that we wanted to have a forum about it, then having a cooking community would be great. Having a "cooking group for IT pros" makes no sense as the fact that we are IT pros is an arbitrarily limiting factor on a cooking discussion. If you want a good cooking discussion, don't limit it to IT pros.

      Video gaming would be a great consideration for its own community. I have been wanting to have a community just around literary gaming. If there is interest, let's talk to the GroveSocial people.

        I wouldn't have an issue with a videogaming community. I have people that might be able to do that for us 😛

          That would make sense. And videogaming is not one word. 😛

            yes it is when you are the Minion Queen. I have decided that I can make up my own words and spelling for them. I am the Queen after all!

                It is now, this is how words are created. Half the words in Shakespeare were not words until he made them.

                  I wouldn't exactly consider Danielle the next Shakespeare...

                      I don't think Shakespeare's peers considered him the next whatever they had before that either.

                        If I recall from English class many of his peers thought he was a bit of a buffoon who wrote cheesy plays without deep meaning or context. Although the royalty loved him so...

                        A video game community would be fun... although some of the type of people dedicated communities attract are not the most friendly.

                          Yeah, that's a bit of an understatement.

                            @coliver that's partially why I'm looking, for me at least, a community completely dedicated to literary gaming. There are lots of general gaming communities out there already. Never going to really compete with those. But something unique, like discussing gaming in a storytelling context would be something special.
