Chris,

My suggestions. Keep the In-Brief and remove the Detailed-listing. Put a link to the what's new page.

By the way I always get mine Monday evening Frown | :(

Is this because the mails are sent out in member ID order?

I am only 20248 Frown | :(

I say ditch it. I never go through it, as I only check 2-3 favorite sections.

Ok,
Chris I know a lot of people have been bugging you about the new site moving to ASP.NET(at least I have Smile | :)

), but could you possibly clue us into any new things that might be added to the new site that don't exist now? I think we are all a little curious.

Thanks

P.S. We all know you are really busy with everything, I just like to keep you on your toes! Laugh | :laugh:

OK - but don't tell anyone else:

A new coffee maker in the lounge. Coffee Maker .NET. The old one is looking a little infested.
I've rearranged the furniture a little bit and added some new video pinball machines.
New name tags for everyone
New outfit for Bob. He's been complaining about drafts.

OH - you mean scripts and stuff. Right. I've actually been thinking about keeping a diary but it's going to be full of 'discovered cool new thing that relegates 90% of the code written so far obselete' entries Wink | ;)

All CodeProject supporters and sitebuilders will be the guinea pigs for the new site so I can fine tune before it's launched.

The really big issue, as always, is promising a date. To be honest moving to .NET is not critical for the site (it's finally stable! [touch wood]) so all rewriting is done in my spare time. The rest of my days and nights are busy ensuring that what we have will continue to function; that the bills are paid; that we get good quality sponsors and advertisers to help pay the bills; and that the 50 articles a week we get all find their way to you screens more or less intact.

cheers,
Chris Maunder

No, I was actually wondering about that coffee maker, can we get a pop machine too?

Thanks for the update.

Oh, nice to here. Is the UDDI entry available (I reckon it will be a web service)?

Poke tongue | ;-P

Absolutely, there is no question about it, everything in the break room will have this kind of access.

For More Info Check This: Coffee Maker.NET

This is more a funny thing than an improvement to the website: What about a counter that show all members that are online (in logged)?
Then you can click on that counter and get the list of them all!? Is that to much work? Big Grin | :-D

I think it'll be a big list and probably server intensive.

Are you turning into Nish, being obsessed with stats and numbers Big Grin | :-D

This would be an interesting stat in terms of 30,000 members / 10,000 logged in, but i doubt showing an itemized list would be that useful; i doubt most people log off that often.

This is easy using the session object but since we run multiple servers it's a bit of extra work to combine the figures (not difficult, just an extra SQL query each time a session starts and stops).

It would be interesting, but for the moment I'd rather work on building the new site and speeding things up.
