It's Alive!!!

You may have seen this elsewhere, but some big news...  the missus is pregnant!



This is our third try at creating life!  It's been very depressing having two miscarriages...  so it was exciting to make it out of the first trimester (we're at week 13).

Keep your fingers crossed for us, will ya?

[protected with Friends Lock]

Just kidding.  I wouldn't go Friends Locked on you.

Friends Lock is one of those things that's great when you use it... but you kinda wish nobody else did.  It's like Caller ID... it's great when you can screen your own calls.  But it's no fun to have your calls screened!

The Xanga equivalent: it's mildly irritating when you see a username in your footprints and you go to click on it... and the site is Friends Locked.

Then again, if you're having trouble with someone bothering you... you kinda have to use Caller ID or Friends Lock.  So there's that.  I saw a CSI:NY recently where a woman was being stalked, and she turned to extreme measure to get her life back.  The internet can be a scary place, which is why we built privacy features like this.

Have you ever had to use Friends Lock?  How did it work for you?

Thanks Sungball!

Sungball found a bug with the new Facebook pinger thingy!  The optout checkbox doesn't work in Safari... son of a gun.  It worked in Firefox, Firefox for the Mac, and IE... but not Safari.

Turns out one of our backend controls isn't fluent in Safari-ese.  We're patching it with a fix now... it should be fixed on Monday it's fixed now!

Thanks for the bug report, Sungball!  Much obliged.

EXTRA CREDIT!

Xanga could use your support!  We have an advertising campaign with Infiniti.  It's a neat promo: if you post their ad widget to your blog, they'll give you 500 credits.  It's one of the most generous widget deals we've ever negotiated.

The campaign is on its last day, and we could use some help!  There are about 700 widgets left.  They're going fast, but we want to make sure that they're all installed before midnight.

Could you help us out, and install the widget if you haven't already?  I would greatly appreciate it... and it would help out Xanga as well!  Plus you get 500 credits... hopefully win/win/win?

You can check out the widget here, or install it here with a single click:
Thanks!
