As PR Coordinator for Frakmedia LLC I get to do a lot of cool and fun things. One of these pertains to my personal gaming blog, the CWF Game Cast, where I discuss non-electronic gaming (RPGs, tabletop, historical, miniatures, collectible card/miniatures, etc) and New England/Massachusetts gaming in particular.

Today is the first day of a week-long contest, the first on my blog, where you can win FREE product. You can win a booster for Axis & Allies Minis or War at Sea (both produced by Wizards of the Coast) courtesy of my blog’s sponsor 12-7-Games. If you’re a gamer then you’ll want to take a quick moment to enter the contest. And if you’re not a gamer you’ll still want to because who doesn’t love free stuff?

Learn how to enter and win by going to my contest post, Win a FREE Axis & Allies Minis or War at Sea Booster. It won’t take more than a few moments of your time (less than a minute) to enter and you could be the winner. The contest ends on Saturday, September 11, 2010 so you have until then to enter. The winner will be announced on Sunday, September 12, 2010.

Good luck to you all!

Under the FrakMedia! Productions banner, I’ve released two plugins for WordPress. They are:

  • jQuery Countdown Clock Widget (version 0.1 beta)

    A simple widget that uses the jQuery countdown library to generate an event countdown, and integrates completely with WordPress and is visually customizable using CSS.

  • Featured Gallery Widget (Verison 0.1)

    A simple widget that allows you to insert the needed PHP call in any widgeted area of your WordPress website, as so long as you are using a widgeted theme. In order to use this theme, you need to have the Featured Content Gallery plugin installed and configured.

These plugins have been submitted to WordPress so we can include them on WordPress.org’s plugin repository. Once it’s in the repository, you’ll then be able to search for it from within your dashboard’s plugin installer. Until that happens, we offer each plugin as a download, which you will have to upload to your webserver manually via FTP.

Should you have any questions about our plugins, please use our contact form. Thank you all!

I was reading Matt Mullenweg’s blog recently and saw a post that invigorated me. Matt blogged about the P2 theme for WordPress and how it changed Automattic (the makers of WordPress).

At the BSG Wiki, and BSG Forum, we have a myriad of internal communication methods. But, like Automattic there has always been a disconnect. We communicate well but need to communicate better and more efficiently. The P2 theme is our solution.

We are pleased to announce the implementation of a new internal blog running P2. This will allow us to coordinate our many projects to be sure that we’re projecting a unified message. We will use it to better coordinate work on the wiki. We will use it to better plan how we use Facebook and Twitter. We will use it to think outside the box. We will use it to better promote the forum. We will use it to be a better organization. We will use it to provide better customer service.

If you’re reading this and are one of our staffers, then you need to e-mail Joe@frakmedia.net, Shane@frakmedia.net, or myself (jon@frakmedia.net) to setup your account. If you are one of the many BSG fans, then know that we are doing everything we can to better serve you.

So say we all!
