Server Reboot

Server has been restarted to prepare for ON night.

Internet Evolution (We are cutting edge!)

WebbyChat help make your site responsive to its audience....so when I saw this concise description of the development of the internet I thought I'd share. We would all do well to take these concepts into account.

Web 1.0 – That Geocities & Hotmail era was all about read-only content and static HTML websites. People preferred navigating the web through link directories of Yahoo! and dmoz.

Web 2.0 – This is about user-generated content and the read-write web. People are consuming as well as contributing information through blogs or sites like Flickr, YouTube, Digg, etc. The line dividing a consumer and content publisher is increasingly getting blurred in the Web 2.0 era.

Web 3.0 – This will be about semantic web (or the meaning of data), personalization (e.g. iGoogle), intelligent search and behavioral advertising among other things.

The site has a lot of good presentations on what this will mean. Click here to see.

PS Bugs are rapidly vanishing from our new prototype. We expect to conduct some user testing in the next couple weeks.

Stability Measures..

Maintenance performed to ensure stability for this evening's Old Navy Night. The server will be back up in about 10 minutes.

Load testing in the new product is going very well. We are in the final rounds of testing that we can do on our own. We will be doing some live tests in the next couple weeks before our official transition.

Thank you for your continued patronage
