Description (from Influencer Page): Geekswithblogs.net is a community of bloggers passionate about contributing information to the world of developers and IT professionals. Our bloggers are some of the best in the world and receive honors on a regular basis for outside companies (such as the Microsoft© MVP Program). The Geekswithblogs.net Influencer...
without the spammers coming out of the woodwork... Do you think they monitor my house? Who knows. Sorry for all the spam this weekend. I have removed the posts and placed some more filter help to stop them. I will be monitoring the site closer now that I have a connection again. SubText will definitely help us against this when we launch
Well after 3 years of .Text it is time to move on. For the next version of Geekswithblogs.net we will be implementing a spinoff of .Text named SubText. Our team is currently working on a smooth import process as well as adding the features of .Text that we added to make SubText a very smooth transition. This move will change some of the blog skins by adding new ones and we hope to support some of the older ones as well. This move is still under development, but we see it completing within the next...
/*-- Geekswithblogs.net Site Update --*/ We should have a new server configuration later this evening if all goes well that will help out with some of the performance issues and Illegal character issues you may have seen on the site. We will let you know when the new configuration is in place. Technorati tags: Full Control, Hosting, Geekswithblogs...
I just wanted to let everyone know I updated the FreeTextBox version on Geekswithblogs.net to hopefully get a cleaner interface to adding information to your blog. I have been using Live Writer or w.Bloggar for so long I forgot how hard it was to use the textbox offered in administration. If you notice any issues with this version, ping support@geekswithblogs.com with your problem and screenshot if you can. Technorati tags: Geekwithblogs, FreeTextBox, .Text...
I just wanted to let everyone know that with IE 7.0 out, we have tested the site and all is good
I don't know about you guys, but over the past couple months, I have been getting a lot of SPAM via the Contact page on my blog. I knew this would happen since it would be extremely easy to scrap the site and find this page on every blog with a simple form to fill out. Since this has been a huge problem, we added CAPTCHA to this form. Just like adding a comment, this process makes it very difficult to automate auto filling and submitting. This will not stop spammers who are willing to fill out the...
I need to start publishing site related news on this blog again as that is the exact reason I started this blog. The honeymoon period is over with the new hosted servers and it is time to start fighting a few small fires that keep popping up with IIS and the site. With the new horsepower, it is hardly noticable when an error occurs, but they are still happening (we knew we wouldn't be able to throw servers at this problem). Hopefully I will find some solutions to the problems we are having this week...
It has been awhile since I have discussed the deal we have with DiscountASP.net, so I thought I would bring it up again to new readers and bloggers. If you need a hosting account for personal web site or a business site, check out the deal we have with DiscountASP.net. You get 6 MONTHS FREE and no setup fee! That is an incredible deal. Geekswithblogs.net is hosted with them and I can say their support and uptime is the best I have seen around...
You may have noticed that Entrepreneurswithblogs and Geekswithblogs were down for a short time last night. We had to do an update on the servers and figured it would be best to do them all at the same time. Everything should be up and running now, thanks for your patience. - Jeff Julian...
