you first made this request BEFORE paying for a domain name etc because I suspect that you would have been advised that it if you had all this enthusiasm busting out within you then it would be better applied in helping out with existing facilities re openSUSE which are always short of helpers willing to contribute.
You are absolutely right.
There was attempt to create OMG!openSUSE! that worked for a while, but doesn't exist anymore, as Tyler got tired of doing all stuff by himself. Also, he had skills to keep his server up and running, so all that was needed was content. See his start:

On the other hand http://www.muktware.com/ target is whole Linux that generates enough news for one site to be interesting. openSUSE has not that high potential. Also, Muktware editor travels on conferences to see the people and get interviews.
Yes, I saw that. While I don't have the time to work on this project full time, I can apply some time to it, as well as existing projects.
I help administer about 6 other Wordpress sites, and a Buddypress site so all I pretty much need is the content too.
I have seen Mukware, however I am hoping for more then just news. I would like How-to's, forums, and more at some point. I know I can't achieve all this on my own, and if nobody helps then it won't become all this. However I can do a little bit to help get the word out about openSUSE, and that's what my goal is. And like I said in my previous e-mail, I am very interested in helping out with existing projects.
Elijah, I'll help you out with your project. I agree that openSUSE is AWESOME and could use all the help we can get to spread that word around. I'm not sure how up-to-date this page is but, here are some junior jobs that might still be available. Just let me know what you want to do and I'll do my best to help you out! : ) http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Junior_jobs -- God bless !
