Volunteer Wanted

I’m looking for a volunteer who wants to do a little web site scanning for us. Thanks to old links scanned by Google, we still have many people reading articles that we’ve written on the old Slowtwitch.com. We’re working on building a table of redirects, so that all those old articles seemlessly move readers to the same articles on the new site architecture. What I need is someone who would like to build me a table of all of the old article URLs and match them with their URLs on the new site. There may be some articles that haven’t yet been moved; we need to know about these as well. I can give you a breakdown on the best way to go about the process, but basically it’s a fair amount of tedium.

As a thank you, you can take your pick of a new slowtwitch jersey & bike shorts OR a trisuit.

I only need (and want) ONE person for this. A perference for someone who is relatively web saavy is preferred, but you need not be a programmer of any sort.

I’ll consider the first 10 replies TO THIS THREAD. I’ll be in touch with you each to pick a best candidate. Thanks.

I’ll toss my hat in the ring, depending on timeline necessary.

I’ll help out. I can give you my full list of qualifications via PM is you’d like :slight_smile:

I’d help

I would be willing as well.

I can help.

Sounds to me like a bit of ‘wget -r’ run through a perl parser, but
it’s not clear exactly what you mean.

Oh, well if you’re gonna throw perl’s before swine, sure… (Never learned perl, actually.)

At least you didn’t try to Winston Churchill me with “age before beauty”. :wink:

I have some time to kill…

Sure, I can help if needed.

Looks like you have quite a few offers already but I would love to help if you are still looking :slight_smile:
