As Division Overlay begins a new year, working feverishly on getting Echo Stream together (More Information soon). It seems as though our blog has felt much neglect as of late. So to make up for an empty feed reader on our part, we would like to know what kind of topics you would like us to spend a little more time on.  Please take a quick moment to answer our one question poll below to provide us will valuable feedback.

Let’s talk about the new website though. I have the layout down; the design is how I want it. The problem I’m having is with the sidebar. I’m not quite sure what I want to do with this, or if I want to rid of the sidebar all together.

Currently in the design of the sidebar I have

• Google ads (Needs to be somewhere, sidebar seems a logical place to put it.)
• Recent Posts (Not really significant, it’s something that can be disposed of.)
• Polls (I would like this feature integrated in the sidebar, as well as posts.)
• Meta data (Login and register links, can be moved to footer, and should be.)

Other features I can possibly add to the sidebar

• Twitter updates (A little section to see my latest Tweets. This is a definite feature for the sidebar.)
• Flickr feed (A couple of my latest flickr photos, something light, maybe 4 at a time.)
• Social networks I’m a part of (Links to my profiles on sites such as MySpace, Flickr, Digg, etc.)
• Post Archive (Again something that isn’t very necessary but can be used.)
• Feed burner (Something I have now, but forgot to put in the design. This can stay or go it doesn’t matter)

First question, should there be a side bar in this new site?

The second question is, what is the feature you would most like in the sidebar?
