Our current landing page simply contains a description about what Audio Commons is. We should rethink that to make the landing page more appealing and interesting for everyone. One idea is to use the blog (see issue #2) as the landing page, potentially with some highlighted or featured content.

My suggestion is that it should still describe the project clearly but it should also have content that makes our current activities very obviously visible.

  1. One option would be to keep the current content in a main panel and introduce a side panel with two "live" sections displaying or twitter feed and blog/news feed.

  2. Another option is to completely replace it with the news feed as Frederic suggested.

I'm perhaps slightly in favour of the first option if we can do it without the page looking too cluttered.

If we add a theme like https://myjekyll.github.io/jasper2/, we could also have one blog entry which is the description of the project and then have this always featured at the top. That would allow to have directly accessible both the about and the "recent activity" contents.

I played a bit with the template mentioned above and created and redesigned the website. You can see a demo here: www.audiocommons.org/new-website-demo/
Basically the news section becomes the home section, and I added a tools section that will include the "getting started" docs (see #1).
