Сontest Contest: Articles about ZennoPoster

[rostonix]

Guys, maybe some of you know that we had articles contest between russian clients two times already and we've just started third one: http://zennolab.com/discussion/threads/tretij-konkurs-statej.19121/

We would like to know if any of english speaking clients would be interested in that kind of contest.
Please reply to this topic if you would like to paticipate as author.

Example of articles can be found here: http://zennolab.com/discussion/forums/poleznye-stati-ot-polzovatelej.154/

Threads are on Russian so please use Google translator to check them.

lokiys, if you want I could help you also taking part in the Russian-speaking contest by translating your article why win just one prize if you can win two?

Thank You for offer, but I doubt you will be allowed to participate in both Eng and Russ with same article and get two prizes

You know, my kind of thinking differs from how some others think. When I read about the contest, I always keep in mind the reason for it: to maximize amount of interesting information for users - in the language they understand. Following this reason, I would allow translations to take part in a contest in parallel with the original text. *Because it serves the purpose*
But I pretty often see that this logic doesn't really matter for those who are on the other side. They think different. Maybe I just don't really understand their goals.

That section is a real goldmine. Those articles you linked to are quite good (once you translate them). Better stuff than the other IM forums out there!

I will add my articles soon.

After reading few articles from him some time ago about C# I know that I can learn a lot from his hacking knowledge.

Isn't it easier to take part in a contest where competition is weaker?

For money yes, but if someone like compete, better filing is where is competition strong.
