What not to focus on:
* Literal duplications of news announcements without commentary.  Many people will subscribe to the official news feed.  It's good, however, to offer commentary in the second part of the article/post after reporting the facts.
* Large databases of information or statistics.  These can be easily maintained in wiki format (e.g. [http://www.wikiswtor.com/Swtor_Wiki the SW:TOR wiki]), or by other websites.  Our valuable contributions can be interpreting this information for others - acting as leaders in the field, being experts.  We could maintain such a database and benefit from it, but only if we can guarantee consistent and careful updating from dedicated members, and justify their time spent on that rather than offering higher-level commentary and interpretation.
