About
StateoftheOzarks |
||||||
It's pretty simple, really. At least the second part. State of the Ozarks is happening now because I finally "got 'round to it."
The site has existed for some time as I struggled with various design and structural ideas that would both adequately express the content and the expansion qualities needed for a site of this scope.
Nothing seemed quite right until now, so it's with pride that I officially launch State of the Ozarks here on September 17, 2007.
Anyway, about the first question — What's it about?
An editorial-style website for the Ozark region and Ozark culture doesn't exist anywhere else. Oh, there's lots of sites with "Ozark" in the name, but those are small business sites, state-run travel-and-advertising sites, or they are purely commercial.
Now, State of the Ozarks is indeed commercial. Advertising is for sale (at some pretty inexpensive amounts, I might add), but we have what no other Ozark site has: content and quality.
State of the Ozarks is dedicated to the journalistic standards of traditional media and is designed to archive, preserve and promote Ozark heritage and culture. We're a magazine, a library, a photo album, a storybook, and a history text all rolled into one.
And the purpose (to celebrate and preserve Ozark heritage and culture) is becoming a reality.
