The Daily Ink is the voice of Utata. Yes, your voice, our voices ... all the voices. We'd be tickled pink if our members helped us define that voice. And this, Utatans, would be your chance to do that.

For more information on Fair UseI thought I would take some time today to give our regular readers a bit of a heads up regarding the state of The Utata Daily Ink.
The most important news is that everyone's favourite "Chief Discussions Correspondent" Brittney Bush is on a bit of a break from the Daily Ink, what with her marriage and *cough* honeymoon. Mazel Tov Brittney and Benn Squishyface!
Brittney and I have been in a lot of discussion lately about the direction that we want to steer The Ink, and have come to a number of
One change that we made today, based on reader feedback in the Utata group, was to change the RSS feed to something a bit more readable.
Because spaces between paragraphs are good.
RSS isn't the only change that we've been considering for The Ink. Based on your suggestions and some brain storming by the Ink Staff, you should be seeing some more changes in the next month.
We're going to be adding more photography news, inviting more guest writers, writing follow ups about Utata projects ... we're also considering opening up comments on certain Ink posts, the ones that don't specifically relate to discussion in the Utata Group.
We'll also be expanding Brittney's Role a bit. She's proven herself an extremely resourceful and creative contributer, and in the future she'll be providing more exploration into the Utata community, beyond the discussions in the flickr group. This will include the continuation of her excellent "Ten Things About" interview series.
I'm very excited about the direction that Ink will be taking going forward, and very proud to keep bringing you all of the flickr news, hacks and interviews that you've come to expect.
