Website Idea

Well I think you basically listed the main points : Information and links.
Something like a picture of the months might be good (this was mentioned before), without bikini shots...
I would give a hand, but I am busy with school (verryyy busy... ariel... ) and then ill go travelling until august.... xO So I wont be able to help out that much.
If I have PC access in Chile, I'll et you guys now

I'm fairly available for now, so I could give a hand if needed

My propositions:
- news on the front page (with a "picture of the day" in a sidebar). When a new single is released, we'd give the Dohhh Up! link to the PV.

- a tab with info on the groups, kinda like a wiki. There could be:
-> a "History of H!P" text, with a chronological bar of when the girls entered H!P and when they graduated
-> all the H!P girls with little bio and pictures
-> all the groups, sub-groups and units throughout the years
Once, I made a wiki text with all the names and nicknames that the girls in MM have/had. So that if a person sees "Tettekete" in a video description or comment, they'll know who it's referring to. If you guys want it...
I also started writing a "History of MM" text a while ago.

- a tab for ppl to discover H!P with the right links.
I think that if they go by themselves on YouTube and watch whatever they come across, they may end up seeing the wrong things at the wrong moment. I mean: when I discovered MM, it was all on YouTube. I clicked from one "related video" to the next. I watched a bunch of PVs, this way. But there are also TV shows, and concerts, etc. I think there is a time for everything. It's nice to start by watching a PV, then maybe some old funny Haromoni stuff, and finally a concert. Why the concert last? Because if you're not acquainted with the idol and wota world, there are things you might find wrong, about the concerts: first of all, the fact that the crowd is 95% male. Then the fact that since they have to dance a lot, they're sometimes out of breath: some ppl may think "pff, they can't even sing live". And also: the fact that sometimes they lip synch. It's best to already have a liking for the girls and the groups, before starting to wander YouTube and watch whatever video. Our goal is to create new fans, so it's best to "guide" them.

- a list of H!P sites. The official sites and blogs of the girls + the fansites, forums, fan blogs, etc. + where to buy merch.


Ideas for the future:
Once we've established the site, we might want to add other things like maybe:
- direct download links
- information for those who are already fans (ex: where the H!P stores are located in Japan, stores that sell H!P merch like Book Off in many countries, where to buy tickets for the concerts, ...)
- articles about specific topics (for instance, I remember a good article on the H!O forum about what it takes to sing and dance at the same time for a 2 hour concert)
- contests and polls, like Rii/Mii said.


Wooh, I gotta stop writing such long replies

Its great! You already made a concept? Awesome!

Ok, I remember Kim asking for a special position in the group.. but if someone's earning it that'd be you Kea
I really like your ideas and I think Mimi-Chama likes them as well for what I see on her comment
Let's see what Rimii think about it...
Anyone else would like to share their opinions on this?

Maybe even to have a page with just some japanese words on, as in if someone were to get into H!P they most probabaly will be interested in japanese, so a few phrases or so, if that's ok?

If so then myabe I'll try and do something..but not sure what exactly? a list perhaps?

^ Oooh, great idea! I had actually started a "Let's learn japanese" thing that I wanted to make as a blog on here: since I've always wanted to learn japanese, my idea was to post the things as I learn them. But if you already know the language, that would of course be even better!
I bought a "40 lessons to speak japanese" book this week, cause I decided that I had waited too long to start and now MM are coming to Paris so I wanna be able to tell them a few things. Well, if I still write my "Let's learn japanese" guide, I'll make sure to forward it to the Prez and Vice-Prez if it can be useful for later use on the blog

@ Ariel: Thank you ^^ As you know, I just wish to help and participate

^ Well I'm not an expert at the language as I am still learning too, but there are just certain phrases which I know.
but yeah something like that would be great!

Quick translations perhaps?

Don't have much of an idea going inside my brain but... I would actually want to see Kea's suggestions on the site (:

I can help a little with that Let's Learn Japanese thing... and some things like researching stuffs so if there's anything I can do for this don't hesitate to ask for my help

There~ that's the best thing I can say for now. Gomen ne ^^:

So many good ideas. R/M is working on setting up the subdomain so we can start doing something. I'll be quoting her in my next post about this. Please check it out!
