| Happy New Year!! |
[01 Jan 2009|10:37am] |
Hey everyone! We've got another year upon us. I hope we all make the best of it! We here at Scribbld would like to thank each and every one of you for making 2008 an awesome year!!
We'll be trying hard to get some of requests built into the Scribbld code base. We're going to start thinking about moving to bigger and better servers (should funds permit) and if not purchasing some items that will make Scribbld more stable.
So here's to a fun, exciting and happy new year!!
Love,
Your Scribbld Admins

| Hellllllooooo December! |
[05 Dec 2008|09:58am] |
I don't know about you all, but these months are FLYING by, it's ridiculous! I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving, and for those of you that don't celebrate it, I hope you had a lovely November!
Not to much happened on the developement side of Scribbld this month, but our systems administrator/developer ( morgan) is feeling a whole lot better. She would like to thank everyone who sent her well wishes! It's much appreciated!!
That said, we're going to attempt to work on a few new features mentioned in scribbldsuggest. Not sure which one's we'll be tackling right away, but we'll figure something out!
We're also in the process of hooking up with a decent ad network, which we like and hope you will too, we definitely WILL NOT be putting ads on journals, but we'll keep them on the main site instead.
Also, calling ALL web designers and developers, we're looking for more site schemes! We're giving away paid and maybe even permanent accounts for site designs! So if you like doing that sort of thing, show us your stuff!! It must be in code (no PSDs) and should be unique! Feel free to send either jimmy or morgan and PM on the site with your stuff or any questions you might have :)
Thanks & have a wonderful December everyone!

| Happy November! |

Hey kids!
October has come to an end, it feels like I was just posting news for August and here it is, November already!
First a bit of news about one of the system admins, morgan. Last week she was in a car accident, she hit a deer. Fortunately she's okay, but her car is complete toast :( That said, our backend development is going to slow down as she's only got one useable hand to type with (she broke her wrist). I personally wish her the quickest recovery and hope all goes well. She'll be taking a break from Scribbld coding for the next month or so.
In other news, we had almost 100% uptime last month, there was about 15 minutes of downtime due to a small power outage. This month we're going to be running some software updates on our database server, but we'll post a date and time when we get closer to doing so.
We hope you're all enjoying using Scribbld and we want to thank anyone who refers their friends, family, co-workers to our little spot on the Internet! It's very much appreciated. We hope everyone had a Happy Halloween and we hope you have a wonderful November!

Hey everyone!
Sorry it's taken me so long to write up a new entry for this month, I just didn't feel like doing it over the weekend! I hope everyone is well, up here in Vermont it's starting to get rather cold. We no longer keep the windows open at night.
It feels like just yesterday was the start of Spring, but here we are already in mid-fall! Halloween is this month, one of my most favorite holidays! Is anyone going to dress up this Halloween, if so what as?!
Scribbld stability has seemed to have returned to normal, I don't think we were down for more then 5 minutes if that during the month of September. We're still looking to get a couple new database and web servers, but that's pretty far off from happening.
As usual, thanks to everyone who has purchased a paid account or some extra icons for their account. We really appreciate any monetary donation (or if you've got servers we love donations of those too)!
I hope everyone has a safe and fun October!

| September 2008 News |
[10 Sep 2008|11:13am] |
Hi everyone,
It's been a crazy busy couple of weeks for us. I am sure those of you that go to school have been pretty busy too! Last month we were able to update the site to the most current codebase and in doing so we gained a couple new features. The biggest one that comes to mind is the ability to show the songs you've submitted to Last.fm in the Music box when you're updating your journals! Other fixes are mostly bug fixes and the likes.
We've also fixed the issue of having our internet connection (between our servers and our ISP) drop constantly. We went from being drop 8-10x per day to 0, which is fabulous!
I also wanted to thank everyone who is supporting the site through buying extras userpics for their account or upgrading their account to paid status! It's really very much appreciated and it definitely makes on want to build the best site for you!
I wish everyone a happy September, stay safe and have fun!

| Happy August Everyone! |

Hey everyone!
First off I must apologize for the downtimes we've been having as of late. It seems to be a bit of a combination between my ISP and the power outages/storms. I've been trying to get the systems up as fast as I can, power permitting.
That said, some of you might have noticed that I've been trying out a couple chat/ chatroom options. I am not sure how I am going to do it, I might just setup a chat server and have a web page that links to it. That way we can have a main chatroom, but others can create their own chat room.
I'm also looking into moving cluster 2 on to the same server as cluster 1 for the time being and then I'll get at least one other server to host the web sites that are also on the server where cluster 2 sits.
Anyways, hit up scribbld_top5 and nominate your friends & communities!!

| Stormy June Is Over |
[01 Jul 2008|03:51pm] |
Wow, what a crazy June, quite a lot of storms and of course we had to get hit pretty hard. We're getting close to the half-way point for obtaining a new database server. Any amount really helps whether you get a Paid Account or just donate some money!
Not sure about you all, but I've definitely been enjoying this nice weather, I hope you're all getting out and having a wonderful summer.
I've been working on a development server this past month so I can test out and hopefully implement new features into Scribbld. I hope you all enjoy whatever comes along (if anything)! One thing that I really hope to get working is captcha's to cut down on the spam accounts being created, but we'll see how that plays out.
I hope everyone has a lovely July!!

| sidekick 3 for sale! |
[07 Jun 2008|10:48pm] |
|
check out what I've just ordered! I'm so excited for it to get here! I will be selling my old sidekick 3 if anyone is interested in buying it. Features can be viewed in the link I have the original box, manuals and acessories although it is missing a charger, but they can be picked up very cheap on ebay or by ordering one from t-mobile.
These phones only work with a t-mobile account/sim card Even if it was unlocked you could not use the sidekick data features. T-Mobile has exclusive rights to the sidekick and chooses to lock them, they are allowed to do that. Also you cannot use the sidekick features with any other carrier, so don't bother.
In other words, do not pay anyone for codes to unlock it and don't waste your time trying to use it with another carrier.
Any questions please feel free to leave your email address and your questions and I'll contact you. comments are screened for privacy (:
(mods I'm sorry if selling thing's isn't allowed!)

Hey everyone, May went by really quickly for us, not sure about you all. I really can't believe it's June already! Happy Birthdays to you June kids!
There's not much to cover on the news front, we've been adding little tweaks into the code and stuff so it runs as smooth as possible. We are looking to purchase another 500GB hard drive so we can continue properly backing up our databases on a nightly schedule. We're quite close to filling up the 500GB RAID set we're currently using.
We've got the request up at scribbld_top5 for new top members and communities, so head on over there and nominate yourself, your friends and a community (pick 2 only, a user and a community)!
I hope everyone has a safe and fun June!!

| Happy May! |
[03 May 2008|08:40am] |
Hey everyone! We had a particularly good (and seeminly long) April. Thanks to everyone who bought a paid account or got themselves a couple (or even one) username! We did have a little blip in the system where the site became inaccessible for some users, but the issue has since been resolved!
We're looking to add a couple new features this month, but we'll see how much work can be done, since the weather is nice and all, and who wants to sit infront of a computer all day!
Win a Free 6 Month Paid Account I believe yesterday or some day in the past week was green up day, if ANYONE did something, you're definitely eligable for a FREE 6 month paid account. Just send pictures (james.brancaccio@gmail.com) of you cleaning up. We've got 5 free paid accounts to give away, so go clean up a street or something! This will go as long as it takes to give away all 5 accounts!
scribbld_top5 is underway again. Sorry it took me a couple days to get it posted, been busy with other items on the to-do list. Go ahead and nominate yourself, your friends and your favorite communities to be featured on the Scribbld home page!
I believe that is all the news for right now, have a lovely May everyone!

Thoughts on Jagua gel or paint? Where could I buy it? Any tips you have for using it and what's the best way to make sure you don't rub it all off when taking it off? (So it will still work)
