I would like to propose something to members of Lumber Jocks, Home Refurbs, and Garden Tenders. As we all know, Martin has established three sites that are loosely linked together. While I think this is a great idea to keep them separate for the most part, I would like to suggest a merger of sorts. These are my suggestions, tell me what the rest of you think?

1. Possibility to have a single sign-on type approach, where signing on to 1 site, automatically signs you on all of them to which you want to be a member. (If you only want 1 you can have only one site)

2. Possibility to post a project to the multiples of the site. I post something like a purgolla? I would like to post it on both Garden Tenders and Lumberjocks at the same time. Or a deck could apply to home refurbs and lumberjocks.

3. A link in our profile that shows we are versatile and might have projects on garden tenders or home refurbs and possibly the numbers. i.e. I have done 10 Lumberjocks projects 5 Garden Tender Projects and 3 Home Refurb Projects. (it gets tricky when you have something that is posted on multiple sites.)

I want to say, I’m very impressed with what you have done with these sites and I personally would love for you to post something on the basics of operation you have for this site. (I’m an IT guy and web-developer myself)

Hey,

first thanks for kudos ;) maybe I will post some basics of the operation in the future.

I’m definitely planning tighter integration of all sites it will just take some time. Single sign-on and projects cross posting should be the most important features.

Thanks!

I’ve been on HomeRefurbisher site quite a bit, because I’m building a house. Currently the site is a little slow. There are only a hand full of people that seem to be regulars (irregularly). There are a lot of projects posted to LJ’s that would be more appropriate on HR. I haven’t really looked at GT’s, because I don’t need another addiction. So I think it’s a good idea, if Martin has a way to incorporate some of the features. Thanks for the suggestion Cpt.

I check the other sites but don’t really post. I would love to see a single sign in take care of all three sites.
