Default PFK diary?
I was doing some tank maintenance today and I thought 'must make a note of the date and what maintenance was carried out' Then I thought I need a diary (I don't posses one) wouldn't it be nice if there was a fishkeepers diary. I've seen similar diaries pertaining to other hobbies so what do fellow forum member think of PFK designing one. It could be a simple smallish affair to give as free gift with a suitable issue say the December or Christmas issue (too late for this year obviously) or it could be a more elaborate
smart looking hardback affair for sale through the website or through the mag. There are all sorts of useful bits of info that could be spread about throughout it's pages along with pics etc. What do you think?

Nice idea. Perhaps it could also include all major fish events, shows, conferences etc so that we don't miss any

Possibly pfk could get sponsorship from one of the big name manufacturers, it could end up costing very little.

Rather than a physical diary, what about some sort of electronic, online, Outlook style calendar, that sends reminders, pre set or user defined, automatically? If PFK could produce or host such a thing, it could also be constantly updated with important (or streamed) dates for shows, new product releases (may help to get sponsors on board) etc... If it was sponsored, it could be provided free or at a minimal cost.

I guess we do have the Calendar facility on the forum that could be used in this way.

Oh love the idea! :o
