| + | I feel like a complete blank. |
− | * '''2007-06-23''' Keeping up with the spam as best I can; obviously I need to add management features to [[htyp:SpamFerret|SpamFerret]] so I can block new spammers without having access to my main computer.
| + | That's how it is. |
− | * '''2007-06-14'''
| + | I can't be bothered with anything recently. |
− | ** Shipping department will be closed June 19-27, as we will be out of town. (Anyone in the SF Bay Area want me to bring them something from stock?)
| + | |
− | ** Restored this page, which apparently got accidentally deleted (instead of reverted) after a [[htyp:wikispam|wikispam]] attack on the 13th. Stupid spammers.

− | * '''2006-04-22''' I just noticed that [http://amazon.com Amazon] seems to be embracing the [[wiki]] concept, or at least dipping a toe into it. If you visit any product page, there now seems to be a "ProductWiki" header, right underneath the "Customer Discussions beta" (apparently a forum-ish thing for discussing the product) which also seems to be new. I've been trying to implement both of these ideas for vbz.net for nearly a year now, but it has been slow going due to lack of time. It remains to be seen if Amazon will do it right and will continue to run with the idea.

− | * '''2006-02-11''': The {{yp|MediaWiki}} software has now been upgraded to version 1.5.5, for a couple of reasons:
| + | [http://www.url4.net/06C7E5 anal fisting] | |
− | ** Spammers were getting on my nerves; I'm hoping that the spam blacklist will now ''work'' (as it does on the other wikis)...
| + | [http://www.url4.net/E3656E black lesbian porn] |
− | ** Users may now receive email when watched pages are changed -- which provides a great way to have an opt-in mailing list with multiple topics :-) More on this soon...

− | *'''2005-12-19''': [[vbznet:search|Searching]] by catalog number now works! Also I've just added all the Mountain longsleeves to the catalog, much belatedly; uploading them now.
| |
− | *'''2005-09-02''': [[Hurricane Katrina]]
| |
− | *'''2005-08-10''': A customer pointed out some Mountain shirts which were still being listed in child sizes only when in fact they are in adult sizes only. I had written a database query to find all child-size-only shirts, and checked each one it found, but it turns out (as I discovered when I checked into the particular shirt in question) that the query had a bug. Fixed the bug and about 10 more mis-entered shirts showed up. They have now been fixed.
| |
− | *I've been buying up discontinued Mountain shirts in pre-paks as the budget permits -- one pre-pak every order or two -- and I noticed last night that the most recent one was listed in one place as "in stock" and in another as "unavailable". I've [[vbznet:cat/mt/1341/|fixed that too]].
| |
− | *'''2005-07-27''': The [[2005-07-11 Server Outage]] crisis would seem to be over, as the cart system is running again. Although I didn't get the [[VbzCart|new cart system]] running, I did get a lot of work done on it... and vbz.net now has its own SSL certificate!
| |
− | *'''2005-07-19''': a catalog data entry goof -- apparently a lot of new Mountain shirts had been entered as available in youth sizes only, when in fact they are available in adult sizes only. I'm rebuilding that part of the catalog right now.
| |
− | :...and hey, we just got our first [[WikiPedia:Link spam|wiki spam]]! Someone at 69.50.191.168 posted a whole bunch of porno links here on the main page. Congratulations to this anonymous spammer, and hope that we never find out who you are.
| |
− | *'''2005-07-15''': Most of the static pages are back up, as are the images, but the shopping cart still is not quite right and the checkout is not online at all; please see [[2005-07-11 Server Outage]] for more information.
| |
− | *'''2005-07-12''': Still working on getting vbz.net (the main store) back up and running. Uploading thousands of files is slow, even with cable, and a lot of the stuff has to be rebuilt. Plus (while other things upload) I'm also playing around with oscommerce, in the vain hope that I might be able to get it to be workable with the catalog data I have now, because that would be... so awesome, as they say. (Proper "live" order management, just to start with, and about a zillion other features.)
| |
− | *'''2005-07-05''': I just now discovered that a lot of emails I've been sending have been bouncing, and I wasn't notified because my spam filters were filing them away out of sight. Just one more reason [[Anti-Spam Policy|spam is evil]] (two more reasons, actually, as the bounces were also due to spam safeguards). '''Anyone who has emailed me recently and didn't get an answer''', please [[Contact|try again]]. ''(Grrrrrr.)''
