It could be possible to have some kind of islands chronicles?
Some site? message? option? where the nobles (or maybe only the council members) of every island could post the most important 'happenings' (probably with their personal POV or some RP)... It could be used to put it in the new Face-Book page and for the newcomers nobles to know what happened in the island before their arrival.
The wiki can be used for this, and it is already available. Someone just needs to write and organize things.
The Dwilight Daily used to be exactly this. It has fallen by the wayside a bit after the forum appeared, I'm afraid.....

Indirik did most of the work, but I'm certain he'd be happy for someone else to start posting again.
If anyone is interested, feel free to take over the Dwilight Daily. I can help get it set up again, and back up to date. But I just don't have time to invest in that kind of thing any more on a regular basis.
It slowed time quite some time ago. Died down at the same time as colonialism fell.
