First rule is to see what's already available.bcblog had its last submission less than two hours ago. Does anyone know what happened to #mwdx? Even ye olde DXFishbarrel can help http://www3.telus.net/public/shallpat/test/display.htm Obviously most relevance to the northwest DXer, but if the thing is lit up like a Christmas tree in the evening, checking for TAs anywhere in America might be productive, and if it's lit up at your local sunrise, it may mean that conditions are good overall, and that switching on the radio would not be amiss.

Would this be similar to the BCB / SW / etc. log pages at dxworld? (Ex: http://dxworld.com/bcblog.html)
Besides AM DXing, I've been wanting to do more SW DXing, and a quick page for alerts for both would be great for that. I think maybe there's 4 people in the entire world who use the SW logger at dxworld...

Last week someone posted a "wouldn't it be great if we had a live DX spotter chat window web site 100% dedicated to SWBCing and/or MW DXing ?" You know, a place where you could quickly sign in and post an alert that you're hearing HCJB on 9560 khz or Voice of the Voyager on 6160 khz... or there is a great TA opening to the West Coast... Show of hands: Who would use a system like this? I have some free server space and some ideas about domain names that could be fun...
