Quite a while ago I blogged alot about a clients site called inBlogs, an Ad-Free Web-Related Aggregator. Well now I own the site and have made some significant changes to the site to improve its speed and backend. The main initial problem we had with the site before was that it would clog up and stop functioning when lots of feeds needed updating. This has now been resolved and the site moved over to a new host. So far the site is running nice and quickly, with no hangs experienced over the past 2 weeks.
The Friend of inBlogs will be re-added and all the friends of the previous inBlogs copied over. I will be doing a big advert campaign once I feel the changes to the site have been completed, this will boost not only traffic to inBlogs but traffic to active blogs that are been aggregated by inBlogs.
For now if you have a blog and wish to add it to inBlogs please do so.
Helibo, a site created by a a good friend Adam Roberts has now launched. It focuses on anything web designer/developer related. I am fortunate enough to be a guest poster on Helibo, although I can never find much time to blog nowadays I am going to try my best to get some decent articles and tutorials written for this site and Helibo.
So far posts have covered, Content Management Systems, Talking to Clients, and 3D. The site is only just launched and its already been a great site to be involved in.
Hopefully over the next few day/weeks I will be launching a few new projects of mine, sites, widgets and anything else I can get out of the Internet Workshop.
Themes.e107 has now launched. The site has been talked about for some time within the support team and e107 developers, a few months back before I started e107Advent I decided to give the site a boost and get a design done for the site. Now a few month’s later the site is up. We are still going to be working on the site over the coming weeks, making changes, adding a logo etc.
Themers can now upload there themes at themes.e107.org. I will be uploading all of mine soon when I get a few minutes spare. Talking of my themes my e107Advent themes have now accumulated over 4000 downloads, which is increasing by the day!
I’m happy to announce that after a few hours work I have re-vamped e107CVs.org.
The main reason for this change is to make CVS updates easier for me to create, meaning I can update it everyday depending if anything has been commited. Now I just need to download the CVS files, and then run an AppleScript which then zips them and uploads them to the site. The site knows when the file was last changed so I don’t have to edit that every few days.
Now for those of you wondering what is e107CVS.org? Its a site that allows you to download the CVS branches of e107, for those people that don’t know what CVS is then the site allows you to download up -to-date Pre-Release copies of e107. So if you wish to try the upcoming releases of e107 then head over to e107CVS.org.
It isn’t recommended you use these files on productions sites, they are simply available for testing. If you do use them then you are using them at your OWN risk!
These are Pre-Release files, some functions may be in a ‘Work in Progress / Not working / Foundations’ state, and bugs will be present.
