Friday, July 18th, 2008

After deleting over 400 splogs (spam blogs), we have re enabled the updated blogs menu. This was disabled due to splogs that were just disgusting. New anti-spam software has been installed and hopefully this will slow the sploggers down a little.

Friday, December 14th, 2007

Some of you may have noticed that the site has been down for a few hours. Well, we recently upgrading things and added new features to the site. These updates will bring the site closer to the original vision by offering a place for users to voice their opinions, etc.

The update is not complete, but far enough along that I feel comfortable in letting people use the site. You may notice that some stories or users are missing, but they will be migrated over slowly. If you have an account with etricites you will receive a new password., but if you can’t wait, please feel free to create a new one.  I will be watching as to not overwrite newer ones with the old ones.

Now for the juice!!! You can now create your own blog on etricities.com. Thats right, when you signup you can choose a “title” for your blog and you will have access to use title.etricities.com as your domain. It is completely free and is powered by Wordpress! Right now only one theme is available, but I will be adding new themes, plugins, etc. in coming weeks. Please suggest themes and plugins that you might like to use.

So, go ahead, signup and get blogging!

I’m glad to see Adams finally agree to Fisher’s demands, whatever they may have been. It probably wasn’t a monetary issue, since his new contract will reportedly pay him only $5.5 to 6 million per year, a little low compared to Mike Holmgren’s $8M. (more…)
