Saturday March 31, 2007 : Can't go a year without any news

We here at crablog (pronounce it however you want) are committed to offering our users a blogging experience of the highest caliber. Even though there has not been a single post to the official crablog blog in almost a year, we have been busy behind the scenes working on other projects not remotely related to crablog because they were more interesting to us at the time. But recently some users have become annoyed by the amount of comment spam they get in their blogs, and they are tired of manually going through the database and removing all of it. Even though it is quick to remove it all, it seems like a fun task to make a complicated method to handle the comment spam automatically. So we give our personal commitment to ourselves (since we are basically the only people who use crablog for blog hosting) to take care of the spam problem. Obviously the CAPTCHA image was not completely working, we will look in to this and other methods of curbing the comment spam. If you are an avid reader and commenter on a blog (one of the few blogs on here, none of which are worth reading), then we please ask that you report any problems you may be encountering when trying to leave comments!

Tuesday November 22, 2005 : No more manual password entry

Now you should be able to sign on and post to any of your blogs without having to enter your password manually each time. Currently we are working on making the home, or My Account, page more functional. Check back soon for updates, if we are not sidetracked expect good things soon.

Wednesday November 09, 2005 : Internally and soon externally

We are making some good progress overall here. We are in the process of sorting our priorities, making sure the important things happen first. The only problem is actually deciding what the most important stuff is. There is a lot of red tape around here; we can't just implement everything we think of without consulting the people above us. (If you are an insider here that should make a lot of sense)

Tuesday November 01, 2005 : November is going to be big

At least for Crablog, November will be a big month. Our goal is to have the comment system up by the end of the month. The secondary goal for this month will also be to have the automatic registration system completed and ready for use (well not that anyone will ACTUALLY use it, but in theory people could if they wanted to, as if there are not enough good blog sites out there to use already, why use this lame one). Wish us luck.

Thursday October 27, 2005 : Every other popular place has one

All the popular sites have their own blogs. Google has one, so I think it is about time Crablog got one for itself too. It is a very exciting time here at Crablog, many new and revolutionary are just days, or weeks, or months away. I know the posting on here needs to be addressed, and since you don't actually log in. And then we also need to get the comments up and running. And overall it needs a facelift. Too much to do, at least my deadline is whenever I decide it should be. Which is never.
