Jennifer has been an About editor for a few months now. It looks like she is doing a bang up job! Nice article thejenn! :cheers:

Great job!

That's the article I wanted to write about a year or two ago, but never got around to!

Glad someone did it. :cheers:

We sound pretty darn good there. :D

"Featuring recognized experts like Jill Whalen, Barry Lloyd, Alan Perkins and Kalena Jordon as moderators, the IHY forums have managed to accumulate over 70,000 posts in less than 2 years." Oh my! :o:

Well, what can I say. Exalted company. And there was I thinking I was only recognised for my loud ties!

LOL. Tooo funny.

I wanted to get all 25 moderator names in there but had to cut it off at a couple. :)

Just names that slipped off the top of my head on a whim. The first ones that came to me. Could have been any names at all. :D

Yeah, yeah...I won't tell you guys what he tried to PAY me to write about you. ;)

Glad you all liked it...hadn't seen an article on forums lately and there seems to be enough change going on lately to warrent one.

Plus, everytime I come up with a topic to write about, someone like Jill or Alan goes and publishes that article the next day! :)

I hate when I write something, and then see someone else wrote about it the day before. So then everyone thinks you copied them, when in fact, you never knew they had even written about it.

There's only so many things to write about.

Jenn, yours was a long overdue article. Thanks!

I get that a lot with the blog. There are 3 prominent search engine blogs from New Zealand and we each publish about the same time each day. We often mention the same news or articles but when one of us publishes first, it looks as though the other two copied them, when it's completely coincidental! :cool:. Great article thejenn and thanks for the mention Dougie :ladysman:

Great recognition all!

Judas Priest I didn't read the article due to the bombardment of pop-ups!~

About should change it's name to ADbout! :eek:
