You'll definitely see the difference as traffic ramps up. It may not be so much a speed thing as scalability. You should be able to drop the number of queries to the DB by several orders of magnitude.

Have fun.

You're right Pam. I swear when it first came out it was searches only. You can turn off saving your web history completely, but I like that feature. I agree that being able to switch the calendar would be good.

The flaw he pointed out was fixed within 45 minutes of Shoe originally posting the story, and we posted this on Shoeâ€™s comments. He was too busy updating his post with additional memberâ€™s data to notice. "

You're a flat-out liar. The post was never updated with more IDs. The IDs that were posted were FAR from "private" data. In any case, you fixed the exploit, right? So the IDs were irrelevant.

What a joke.

Oh and for everyone commenting that Shoe should have contacted MBL privately first, let's not forget that Jeremy Zawodny publicly called out this site's own Andy Beal for "spamming MyBlogLog" and later apologized. Where was the private email on that one?

It won't matter whos account you reinstate. No one cares anymore. MBL is the equivalent of a hit counter. We realized those were useless in 1997.

You're a bunch of amateurs. And by the way, you still hadn't fixed it the first time you posted that you did.

Congratulations on pulling the wool over Yahoo's eyes, not that it must be hard when they're imploding.

Gypsy,

Well by definition a boycott is temporary. I think a lot of people are also realizing how useless MBL is and just deleting their accounts at the same time.

Also, some of the "players involved" can't even login to delete their accounts if they wanted to.

I just hope you can make it. All this flying is gonna take a serious toll. Load up on vitamins and water. Other than that, I bet the experiences to talk about will present themselves.

Re: Recommendations for Collaboration Software

Lee,

We're in the same boat, and haven't found anything that fits the bill.

Calendar and email solutions exist, but what is really hard is code collaboration. We asked Cutts, and even he didn't have any good suggestions.
