Erowid Announcement #44
July 14, 2004
Friends of Erowid,
As part of our efforts to improve the accuracy and responsiveness of the site, in the last month we began beta-testing two new systems: one for responding to requests for corrections, and another for "triaging" submitted experience reports...to help increase the rate at which good reports get published. In addition, we're switching more and more of the site over to the new Erowid 3.0 look and feel.
In content news: Issue 5 (Nov 2003) of Erowid Extracts is now online, including an analysis of the contents of street LSD.
Finally, the summer matching grant campaign is in full swing. For details or to help us take advantage of the generous matching offer (most donations $200 or higher qualify), visit:
Erowid.org/donations/donations_matching.shtml
We welcome submissions, suggestions, criticisms, or corrections at submissions@erowid.org.
peace,
fire & earth
