NewGrounds Logs - Under New Management!

Posted by byteslinger Apr. 29, 2009 @ 1:29 PM EDT

** THE NEW NG LOGS SITE IS UP AND OPERATIONAL!!! **

New URL : nglogs.com

Edit: April 9, 2011:

Wow. Time has a way of slipping by way too fast. Between being busy IRL and on-line, I've only done general maintenance on the NGLogs site. Oh, I have plenty of good plans and ideas on paper - but finding a nice chunk of time to code it all and put it in place has been rough.

When I first took over NG Logs, my client list (I'm a free-lance consultant/designer/programmer) was zero - I had no work IRL, and I was living off my savings. The economy had caused many of my clients not to renew contracts, leaving me with time on my hands to find more work - and be active on Newgrounds.

Later, business did pick up - and in fact, it has increased to the point where I'm working steady again. Good for paying my bills, but it does cut into "free-time projects". Each month I'd say to myself "ok, gotta work on the NGLogs programs next week" - but it never happened.

I feel bad about that, so I am going to elevate the importance of NGLogs to what I'll consider "an active pro-bono project" and allocate a few hours a week to work on the code and the upgrades. I'm making it part of my schedule - and 2 hours a week will add up, and eventually I'll have all the changes in place. I've had a lot of positive feedback and constructive criticism, and I do want to implement the things I have promised.

My apologies for letting it slip; hopefully, in a few months, I'll be able to deliver on what I've been talking about doing for so long...

Edit: July 16. 2009:

Good news: NG Logs is doing just fine - a few minor tweaks here and there, but otherwise doing well.

Bad news: We have a bunch of retarded spammers who are jamming post/replies with an automated program, so before I get hit, I have to disable comments for a while. Feel free to continue to PM me or post to the NG Logs Ideas thread - I check those daily.

Many of the other members of the EGB have been hit recently,and it looks like a systematic attack against all the members. So I think it'll be just a matter of time before they find my ID and slam that, too.

So, this post will be read-only for a while - but I'm still around.

Happy Stat Whoring!

Regards,
ByteSlinger
New caretaker, programmer and host of NG Logs...
