In our best effort to serve you better. We are announcing the move on the new sweet server: Intel® Core™2 Duo, 4GB RAM on 100Mbit  network :D.

We will change NS server settings tonight at midnight (23/07/2008 24:00) and estimated downtime is 2-6 hours.

We are expecting a seamless transfer and minimal bugs after the transfer. If you feel that something is not working please do not hesitate to contact us. This is one way of serving you better.

Plus after switch to the new server we will announce new exclusive features on Blogetery!

Blogetery server have been “killed” by my ex-hosting company ServerAxis (was their client for 2 years) without any notifications. We have restored blogs and posts created/updated before 2008-05-29.

More information here.

Guys sorry for inconvinience. For me it was big shock/stress because I lost many of yours blogs/posts on Blogetery + many my own websites and blogs.

Never do business with ServerAxis. And tell your friends, write on your blog about this crappy company and asshats working there!

There’s a great new plugin for wordpress, designed by Seesmic. Once installed, it allows you to leave a video comment to your posts or enables he author to combine a small video recording within a post.

Enjoy!

We’re releasing AdSense-Deluxe2 plugin that we are using here on Blogetery for revenue share. Originally this WordPress plugin was developed by acmetech.com. AdSense-Deluxe2 is a WordPress plugin offering advanced options for managing the automatic insertion of Google AdSense to your WordPress posts.

Features:

• New: Added revenue share functionality for WPMU.
• New: Added Ads Auto-Embedding: if you haven’t add <!–adsnese–> code into your post plugin automatically will add this code into position you choose.
• Fixed: WYSIWYG drop-down menu (working with WordPress 2.3.3)

Installation: Download the tgz file, extract it and upload the adsense_deluxe folder to your plugins or mu-plugin directory.

WPMU revenue share configuration: To enable revenue share set up following variables in adsense_deluxe.php:

• $__ACMETECH_REV_SHARE - % of revenue share
• $__ACMETECH_CLIENT_ID__ - AdSense Publisher ID must be the same as in $__ACMETECH_AD_DEFAULT_CODE__
• $__ACMETECH_AD_DEFAULT_CODE__ - AdSense code for revenue share

Download: here

Seems like The WordPress.com Stats Plugin not working on WPMU :(. It has been replaced by FireStats plugin. You can enable FireStats plugin from Plugins page and access stats page from Dashboard -> FireStats.
