Wow, I was actually about to post a blog about the WS too. Weird.

Anyway, one very tiny suggestion that could get a bit more views is put a link from the main page to the Showcase. The Writer's Workshop has one, so why not the Showcase too? I'm sure that if we add a link to the Showcase below the Workshop's link in the front page (inside that white border) it would get a few more views, with little to no effort on our part.

The thing is though, there is no way to know if the Showcase is working or not, unless we can get individual page views. Comments don't really mean anything. And I believe only admins can see how many views a page gets, but I'm not sure.

I tried to work something out using the Insights, but I doubt they are that trustworthy. But what I found with a little experiment of mine is this:

One of my stories was getting about 15 views per week (according to the Insights). Then I posted it on the Showcase. The following week it had about 50 views, but no comments. I don't know if the thread in the Showcase had anything to do with this, but it is worth mentioning.
