Your New Scoop Site

Welcome to Scoop!

To help you figure things out, there is a Scoop Admin Guide which can hopefully answer most of your questions.

Some tips:

Most of the layout is changed in "Blocks", found in the admin tools menu
Features can be turned on and off, and configured, in "Site Controls" in the admin tools menu
Stories have an "edit" link right beside the "Full Story" link on an index page, and right beside the "Post a Comment" link on the full story page. They can also be edited by clicking the story title in the "Story List" admin tool
Boxes are what allow you to write new features for Scoop; they require a knowledge of the perl programming language to work with effectively, although you can often make small changes without knowing much perl. If you would like a feature added but cannot program it yourself, ScoopHost does custom Scoop programming as one of its services.
If you aren't sure where to look for a particular feature or piece of display, try the "Search Admin Tools" link in the admin tools menu.

Worth, or the value of a product when sold to a customer is determined when the want of that product provides a price that matches the desire of the seller to part with it. Sometimes the seller can be so motivated, that they are willing to sell the product for less than it cost them to manufacture, or even to buy. Ultimately, the buyer and seller will freely determine between themselves, the "value" of whatever it is that is being sold by the ACT ITSELF.

A pre-declaration of value, or pre-establishment of price, hardly makes the "worth" an absolute.

The buyer determines what something is worth based on a number of considerations. Considerations are made in how it enhances their life, by satiating current hunger with the purchase of a food stuff, if it keeps them warm as a sweater or coat may, or even how it can allow them to be more efficient in creating their own wealth through the use of a tool or specialized device.

Every thing has SOME value but the many variables which drive the realization of those values are sometimes too complex to easily predict.
