Keyvan Nayyeri has launched his project today, something he calls “ The Web Cleaner ”. The official name is Waegis and it’s a service to filter out spam. Alpha testing BloggingAbout.NET joined the alpha process and we were extremely happy with the results of Waegis. To start with, installation is a breeze...
Now that was a smooth transition. Within minutes BloggingAbout.NET was upgraded from version 2007.1 to Community Server 2008. We've gotten a brand new license from the great folks over at Telligent , the folks behind Community Server . For logged in users, the frontpage will show recent activity...
If you're looking at this, you're looking at BloggingAbout.NET on a brand new 19" server that's dedicated to BloggingAbout.NET. We were hosted on a server with about 100 or 200 other sites and we were pulling so much traffic and resources that our sponsor has decided to give us a brand...
We experienced some serious problems since almost 20 hours ago or so. Our host wasn't able to fix the problems instantly and that's why it took so long for BloggingAbout.NET to be in the air again. Hopefully everything's solved now. We're really sorry for the inconvenience.
From everyone at BloggingAbout.NET HAPPY NEW YEAR
Before installing Community Server 2007 I wanted to customize the look and feel of it a bit, so it wouldn't be the standard CS2007 skin. Luckily there was a theme competition at Community Server and Kevin Harder created a great skin. I've installed it and you can look at it right here...
Happy new year everyone!!! Of course we wish you all the best for this new year! At the ending of 2006 a lot of new technologies have been released that most of us aren't working with yet. I'm thinking the .NET Framework 3.0, Office System and Vista among others. I hope we'll all get to work with them...
Recently I've installed a search provider for IE7 on BloggingAbout.NET. This means that on every page here you should be able to search this site using the search box in the upper-right corner of your IE7 browser. You can also install it into IE7 and use it while you're not at our community site. Although...
I wanted to see if the newMediaObject module, offered by the Community Server team, had benefits over my current implementation. Although I still have to figure out why, the implementation we had running kept creating copies of the media objects when re-publishing something. After updating, this doesn...
Just upgraded Community Server 2.1 to Service Pack 1, downtime was only a few minutes. Thanks Telligent. Be sure to check out Blogmailr.com if you want to blog using e-mail, for free. I still prefer Windows Live Writer though for the features, the SDK and the great preview you get, when your skin is...
