Bug Fix
Category: updates
Sorry (e:zobar), it wasn't the RSS feed but I will get to that this week. It is the search box. If you searched for something an done of the journals that came up had a sound in the journal it was fucking up the script, and that is why sometimes, the search results would open in the search popup but it is all good now.

More estrip.org statistics
Category: statistics
I posted some statistic data for the site about the peeps who have written the most, posted and received the most comments. And blogs by temperature and age statistics.

For the most prolific estrip.org authors list you can see them listed by rank with a link to their latest title. Some peeps on the list haven't even written since 2005 which means that some of the new peeps can have an edge on stealing their spots.

Hmm, and I've written the second most. Well, I guess mom was write 'you have to WRITE mail in order to GET mail!"

Paul can you do views stats? maybe even an average- total views/# journals?

Ooh! Put that in a graph on the front page, along with #comments-
most viewed journals for the day!
jenks - 09/03/07 20:37
holy crap, I've received the second most comments?!
Wow... thanks? I think?
metalpeter - 09/03/07 19:18
If I noticed things correctly if (e:libertad) makes no more comments and gets 6 more comments on his journal he will have 666 on both. I think it is a cool idea to list site stats "every so often" I'm not sure what other stats should be used but what might be cool is to have a word count tottal for each person or even the top 50 then also have a word count on comments for each person also. But I don't do the programing so I don't know how possible that would be.

Ya, apparently around 75 degress is the most optimal posting temperature.
joshua - 09/03/07 17:39
This is a nice statistical breakdown - I thought I would be high on the comments received list but I'm also on the top 10 for comments written - I'm surprised by that! I take long stretches and don't pay much attention to (e:strip) sometimes.

Everyone can feel more special
Category: update
I updated the mini userpics that show when you are online to reflect the number of journals you have to the nearest 50 always rounding down.

So, say you have 57 journals it will say 50+

The other two increments are "<10 blogs" for new users with less than ten journals and 25+ for those who haven't quite reached 50 yet but want to feel special too.

Get your own (e:strip) regal title!
If you also want to have a custom title show across the top of your minipic, you can buy one by donating to the estrip paypal account by clicking on Donate above the minipics to the right of the latest entries list. Money goes toward site maintenance and thinks like hardware, domain names renewals, software updates, and general upkeep.

You can also earn titles
Like (e:jim) who is currently the 3rd most popular journal on the site this month (via view count), hence "bronze metal."

50+ wow! i haven't updated my paypal account in years... i'll have to look into that...
paul - 09/03/07 10:24
Theecarey and I were gold and siler winners but we already had titles.
jenks - 09/03/07 10:13
who are the gold and silver medal winners??
jason - 09/03/07 09:22
Oh, hell, 5 grand, that's right, that goofy Brit actually tried to say that there would be some competition for that one, yeah? I'd bet his phone is just ringing off the counter with people trying to snap it up at that price.
james - 09/03/07 00:20
In that case I would like to use this forum to make an announcement.

500 years ago, when George Washington first crossed the Atlantic and discovered America he stood at Plymouth Rock and spake "I have a dream! That someday I may be president and we will have Thanksgiving and Christmas" Well, that dream continues today. Which is why I am starting the "Friends of (e:james) Helping to Get Him the Title of Paul Visco" fund and research centre.
won't you give generously?
paul - 09/03/07 00:10
$5000, the exact price of buying estrip.com from the evil overlords.
james - 09/02/07 23:51
How much would I have to donate to get the title "Paul Visco"?

Another change
Category: update
I updated it further so that the meta description of each journal page is the first 100 characters of the the text of the journal stripped of text bling and that the author is your username and a link to your journal. This should raise individual author ranking on google.

You journal title is now your page title
Category: update
Whenever you visit a specific journal on the site, the journal's title is now the title of the page. This should make for better search engine optimization and just make it look cooler.

Good move!
