  1. Faster Fiber

    by , July 20th, 2009 at 02:40 PM
    I had to call Verizon today to have my FIOS service moved to my new place.

    My old place has the base FIOS plan of 5 Mbps up / 2 Mbps down. Apparently the new base plan is 15/5 and it's cheaper!!!!

    Best phone call I've made all day

  3. New Townhouse!

    by , June 30th, 2009 at 11:52 AM
    Will be moving in mid-July to a new townhouse. (I'll have my own office, from which I will start implementing my plans for global domination )

    Very happy to be moving. More space, a gorgeous kitchen (granite countertops, sunken sink, wall mounted oven, custom cabinets), nice quiet neighborhood (for now).

    The thing I'm dreading? Packing.... I hate packing boxes.

  4. most irritatingly persistent Bug fixed.

    by , June 21st, 2009 at 09:44 AM
    Ever since we started running banner ads for companies, we've had an issue with the dropdown menus going under a flash banner instead of over it.

    No matter what I tried, how many z-index CSS rules I looked up, how many hours of investigating the Document Object Model(what defines how HTML, CSS, and Javascript play together), the error persisted. I can't even count how many hours I've worked on this bug.

    The solution literally came to me in my sleep last night. Not ...
  5. Yup, we have Blogs (and other things are coming)

    by , June 20th, 2009 at 08:55 AM
    Something that has been promised for a long time. We finally have blogs for users. This feature is available to those with a CB Supporters subscription.

    I, for one, look forward to seeing what people choose to blog about. Same rules apply to blogs as to the forums. (no rigging, electric, pyro discussions and no direct selling)

    There are some other new features in the works, some are minor additions, some are major new parts of the site.
