Wetpaint Changes Email Notifications

On Monday, August 25th, Wetpaint released changes to the email notifications. They’re awesome, they make your email notifications look more like your website! Don’t get tricked into thinking you are looking at your wiki on Wetpaint!

This includes a change in what the subject looks like as well, making it more descriptive! From what I understand, this ensures that emails actually make it to every member’s inbox.

Give Wetpaint some feedback on Wetpaint Central and Great job Wetpaint Developers and the rest of the Team!

Budde Podcasting Network Segment - June 27th

Wetpaint Update

Wetpaint was down on Wednesday for a good part of the night - They added new servers to the network because they are nearing the creation of the Millionth wiki. Along with them nearing this - They have a lot of things on the White board for future releases.

Wetpaint Contest ALERT: Wetpaint is having a contest to see if you, yes you! can either create the one millionth wiki or refer the person that creates it. If you create the one millionth wiki you will be getting a Wetpaint “Going Green” package and you will be able to give an organization a “Going Green” package. Along with the Creator, the Refer will receive a “Going Green” package as well. What is this going green package you ask? Read this below to find out:

Wetpaint will offset the approximate annual emissions of the average U.S. home (25,210 lbs. of CO2), the average U.S. vehicle (8,403 lbs. of CO2), and 50,419 lbs.of CO2 of emissions of the organization of choice of the millionth site creator and referrer, if eligible, for a total value of $500 per package. Applying offsets to be provided by Terrapass.

BPN Update

As I said last week, we’re 3 weeks behind in development.. I am getting there, not ready for testing quite yet. But, we’ll say by the end of next week we should be good to start the testing on the new design and layout. Stay tuned!

Josh’s Blog Update

UPDATED: I have disabled Disqus comments so that I would be able to enable the Comment License for the Blog and any comments that were posted during the Disqus implementation have been re-added manually by Me.

I have added a new theme to my blog along with a newly designed sidebar. We’ve kept the Disqus comments and I am working on getting two new plugins called Comment License 1.2 and Pingpress 2.1.4. Those should probably be up and running by tomorrow sometime.

Wetpaint Nation / Episode 13

Yesterday, Thursday, June 19, 2008 I interviewed Tracy from Wetpaint about her role as an Interaction Designer for Wetpaint. It was a great turn out and I’d like to thank the 13 people that had joined the Chat and the two people that called in.

Thanks to Tracy for volunteering to be on the show for Wetpaint’s Second Birthday.  Thanks for answering all of the questions that I had asked. Also, It was great that you explained the difference from Wetpaint’s UI and what sets it apart from Wikia or PBWiki’s UI.

Attached is the Audio file of Episode 13 from Wetpaint Nation, which was recorded live yesterday on TalkShoe ID: 10200.
