What do I get as a registered user?

Registered users can Create Content on Korakora Proyekto. Content types are:

Blog entry
"As more and more citizens express what they think, and defend it in writing, that will change the way people understand public issues. It is easy to be wrong and misguided in your head. It is harder when the product of your mind can be criticized by others. Of course, it is a rare human who admits that he has been persuaded that he is wrong. But it is even rarer for a human to ignore when he has been proven wrong. The writing of ideas, arguments, and criticism improves democracy. Today there are probably a couple of million blogs where such writing happens. When there are ten million, there will be something extraordinary to report." - From "Free Culture" by Lawrence Lessig

Book
You can Create a Book independently or you can invite others to Create a Book as a collaborative writing effort. If you are intending the latter, indicate that Korakora Proyekto users can collaborate in writing the pages of your planned Book. Here, users can position the pages in the right order, and review or modify pages previously written. All Book Titles are listed in the Book Menu and Printer-Friendly versions of all Book Pages can be generated.
