FoundSF

Help FoundSF reach a place we can only dream of without your contribution.

In addition to adding material that is of interest to you and your place in history, here's some larger projects we will definitely need some help with:

• Turn podcasts into pages.
  

Shaping San Francisco has recorded a few years worth of our Wednesday night talk series. These talks are relevant to material in FoundSF and can have a home here. They just need someone to upload them to related pages. Is that you?

• Shrink to fit
  

Some of our photos are practically escaping the screen. Can you format them to not be sneaking off the page? This would require a pretty thorough combing of the site, but think of how worth it to see an entire photo on EVERY page it would be!

• Curating articles and photos.
  

Chris? what was this? Specific projects of one's choice?

• Add material from the SF Media Archive
  

FoundSF has lots of text, and many photos, but very few moving images. The San Francisco Media Archive has thousands of films and other media materials for us to include in FoundSF. Want to plumb their archive?

• Clear our Inbox
  

We've got stacks of articles, essays, photos, and more piling up on our desk. If you've got an eye for organization and can create concrete TO DO piles out of our stacks, this is the job for you.

• Mapping it
  

FoundSF would be so much cooler (and easy to navigate) with a map interface. Think of it: searching any part of the city for points of interest, or the other way round - having a map on each point of interest to tell you where you are. Are you GIS or other mapping savvy?

• MediaWiki nerds need apply
  

Some of the MediaWiki programming is a bit beyond us. First off, the navigation bar is a little cluttered, don't you think? Help us clean it up with your mad MediaWiki skills??
