As an FYI: INFORMS is planning a major upgrade to its “INFORMS Online” web presence (IOL). I am on the Membership Committee, and I would like to push for more member-generated content on the website. Let me know your ideas, and help me make the value proposition.

And the attempt to read the atom feed comes back with a “User does not have permission to read this blog.” which is presumably why I can’t subscribe through google reader. I wish there was an email contact but perhaps you know who is handling this and can pass along the comments.

It is a good start!

Mike - Getting to the blog is a matter of clicking through the ominous service violation warning. The first few posts make a good start. As for your neglected Wordpress installation, perhaps it’s a left-hand/right-hand issue.

When I go there, I first get a “Possible Service Violation” page. And, for some reason, I can’t subscribe to it via google reader.

Why I bothered installing the multi-user wordpress at INFORMS (see http://blog.informs.org ) when not even INFORMS will use it, I do not understand! But perhaps this is another sign of issues with volunteer driven efforts.

But good luck to the blog: once I can subscribe to it, I’ll link it at my page.
