turpsI've been working on something I'm going to add to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
pop_newsletter, sort of a welcome to the sparkly fandom. Which is basically lists of important comms, sites, explanations of pairing names etc.
It's very much geared up toward the total newbie. Someone who's interested in the fandom but doesn't know where to find the good stuff. My plan is to lure them in with footage and not let them go ;)
So, this is where I turn to you all. What are the essential sites and communities you can't do without? What footage should every new fan see? I guess, just pretend you're pimping a new fan into our fandom, what would you tell them to do, to join, to see, to listen to? Hopefully I can upload any media and leave it there to lure in the unwary.
Also, what do people think of the idea of a beta reader list? To go along with the pophet, popslash, communities and fan lists. I know there's a beta comm but it's really quiet. I was thinking more along the lines of people volunteering and I'll put up a list. Then if anyone wants a beta they can check that list and see if anyone suits.
