I have a standard def digital video camera which I'd be happy to put to use for skeptical purposes. Right now it's mainly put to use for skunk-related purposes.

I hereby pledge that I will watch every ILS video and give it the highest possible rating.

That doesn't sound very skeptical. *wags finger*

Oh, it won't be.  I can't offer much to this project, but I am comfortable sacrificing my YouTube rating integrity for the cause.

I'm an animator, designer, and programmer. I can also edit/composite video, draw, and I've written and performed comedy for 4 years.
I'll help ya out.
I'd like to do visualization... like on NOVA or something... an animated illustration of tough-to-explain concepts.
~or~
How about a cartoon called "The International League of Skeptics"?  :-*

I've compiled a list of sceptical organizations for the ILS site, and need your help to make it more complete:

So, where is the official home of the league right now? Facebook? Here? A Website? It's all very fractured and I don't know where to get involved.

Thanks!

Our website will be at http://internationalleagueofskeptics.com/

Other simpler urls will probably be registered after a while.

Project development takes place on this forum. Check the OP for ongoing/upcoming projects.

The facebook group is mainly for PR etc.

Digg apparently did away with it's podcast section - there is an old submission here, might I suggest the ILS hack some more user generated sites and try to either the old submission, or a new submission to the front page?

I would love to help out the league.  However, I have a limited amount of time but still want to be involved.  What kind I do?

I do a decent voice-over, I am pretty good at proofreading and editing text and scripts.

I also have a few brain cells to rub together.
But not fast, as they start to smoke.

Now that is cool!

Yeah, I made it about five minutes ago.

Congratulations!  You guys earned it.

Should we now remove the ILS:-prefix from the thread-titles?

I've stickied ongoing projects, though it doesn't really make a difference yet as there aren't a lot of threads.
