Wordpress seems to be queueing comments somewhere in the system and I’m not seeing them for moderation till days later sometimes — even my own! Once you have a comment approved, tho, all further comments by you should be posted automatically. (A spam control measure, as you can imagine.) As you can see, we’re in the process of upgrading nanodot (and the main website will follow). Please bear with us while we work the kinks out. We hope you find Nanodot useful all year long. Now we need some assistance from our loyal readers: we have a Challenge Grant going, with every dollar you donate being matched one-for-one up to US$40K. But as of today we’re only about a quarter of the way to our goal. Foresight Nanotech Institute has received a large Challenge Grant, but to fulfill the challenge we need to raise $40K in matching gifts. You can watch our progress on the pie chart as we work toward our goal. This year as an experiment we are opening up a subset of seats at the Nov. 3-4 Foresight Vision Weekend to members of special groups such as Nanodot readers. The event is usually open only to Foresight Senior Associate members: In an effort to make nanodot a more concentrated news resource we have added a number of new block summaries that users may choose to add to their nanodot homepages. More… from the mea-culpa dept. "After a long week of work, nanodot is back up and running! During our major upgrade/maintenence on August 12th, we ran into some hardware issues which forced us to lengthen our downtime unexpectedly. We've since corrected those hardware issues, and have gotten nanodot back up on a more stable, extensable, and solid infastructure running BSD and Slash 2.0. I want to appoligize to everyone for our downtime, as well as for the inconvenience this has casued. I can assure you that we'll do everything we can to significantly shorten subsequent maintenence and downtime on the site in the future. Please feel free to email me anytime at nanodot@foresight.org to let me know of any issues, comments or questions that you have regarding Nanodot.org. Thanks for reading! Ben Harper from the better,-late,-than-ever dept. Ben has commendably corrected the Sendmail malconfig Nanodot had been suffering (by replacing Sendmail with Postfix)… so if you signed up for a Nanodot account and never received your password, you can now use the "Mail Password" facility to get the system to resend your password. (If you don't remember your Nanodot nickname, don't fret… we will do a mass-mailing to all Nanodot users, reminding them of their nicknames and passwords, shortly.) from the he's-slow-as-heck-but-he-works-cheap dept. from the your-call-is-important-to-us dept. |
