Question 10: Box of Photos?
November 22 2006
Ok, so, the photo manager is going to be one of my main foci as I rebuild PhuseBox from the ground up... Look forward to an easier way to upload photos and better organization for them. And that leads me into my question...
QUESTION 10
If you could change only one thing about the photo sharing system on PhuseBox, what would it be?
This includes uploading photos, how they are viewed on the screen, photo requests, photo information, how easy/hard it is to edit them, etc...
I will not be posting any more questions until after Thanksgiving "break." Until then, if you did not answer one of the previous questions, grab a plate of turkey and go back and help me out by answering some questions...
Thanks to everyone helping out!

Question 8: Better Blogging?
November 20 2006
Hope everyone had a great weekend... I will dive back into a new round of questions... The new Phusebox site is coming along...
QUESTION 8:
If you could make one thing better about the blogging system on PhuseBox, what would it be?
The blogging system includes everything from the blog manager to creating a new blog post, adding photos, and how it appears on your PhuseBox page, etc.
Please try not to say phrases that start or end with, "like such and such other site.com..." Like I said, my goal is not to replicate other sites.
Thanks again for all your help!

November 17 2006
Again, thanks for everyone's responses on the previous questions, and yes, these questions are designed to help the structure of the new PhuseBox site.

I will be back on Monday with a new round of questions focusing on improving PhuseBox.
Hope you have a great weekend!

Question 4: On an Island?
November 13 2006
I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend. Here is the next quesiton to answer if you have a few minutes:
QUESTION 4:
If you could only keep one feature on PhuseBox, what would they be (and why)?
example of features include blogging, photo uploading, messaging, finding friends, the friend digest, groups, etc. Please do not request new features; there will be a time for that.

Question 3: Read-a-Blog?
November 10 2006
I appreciate everyone's feedback from yesterday's question. I would like to remind everyone of a couple things though. When I set out to create PhuseBox, I did so with a couple "principles" in mind:
1. Be Innovative
2. Design Matters
Those two points drove the creation of PhuseBox and will drive the future of PhuseBox. I wanted to be an improvement over other social sites, not a copy. I could very easily make a replica of mySpace.com or some other social network site... but what would be the point? PhuseBox is all about being different, being innovative, and not letting the site look really bad with color schemes and massive image backgrounds that hurt your eyes when you try to read the text.
Also, I will be asking your opinions on what you would improve at a later date... so there will be time for that, but for now... today's question:
QUESTION 4
What do you mainly use to read other user's blogs: The Friend Digest or Visiting the User's Blog Page?

Question 3: Drop it?
November 09 2006
Again, thanks for everyone's answers to the questions... I appreciate it and it will help me as I build the next version. Today's question may be a little tougher:
QUESTION 3:
If you could (or had) to drop one feature from PhuseBox, what would it be and why?
thanks!

Question 2: What Do You Use?
November 08 2006
Thanks for all the great response on the question yesterday. It really helps to hear what you guys have to say. And now... If you would take a few seconds to answer the following question:
QUESTION 2:
What feature do you use most or appreciate most on PhuseBox?
QUESTION 2:
What feature do you use most or appreciate most on PhuseBox?
Question 1: Why Do You Use It?
November 07 2006
Since I am diving head-first back into rebuilding the PhuseBox site, I would like to gain some perspective on what exactly makes PhuseBox what it is. So, in the next few weeks, I will be asking you some questions through this blog trying to get feedback on certain aspects of the site.
If you get a chance to take a moment and answer the questions, I would appreciate it.
QUESTION 1:
Why do you use PhuseBox?
(not "what do you use on PhuseBox" by why you use it - what is it that keeps you coming back?)

PhuseBox: The Next Chapter
November 06 2006
Today, I started laying the foundation for a complete re-build of PhuseBox. After thinking long a hard, I realized that the current site has seen little or no change in almost a whole year. I think, and many would agree, that PhuseBox needs a major facelift. It was a tough decision because it is definitely a huge committment of time, but I think the users on PhuseBox will appreciate a new "refueled" site.
So, there you have it. This will be the 3rd major "version" of the site and hopefully it will bring with it some brand new features and a much better interface including better photo management.
Life is going to get more interesting now.

PodPoint: I'm Excited
October 21 2006
Well, I have been working on PodPoint for quite some time now... mostly over the last few months. And it is finally ready for launch.
PodPoint is a site I have developed to help churches and ministries easily manage a podcast. I am super excited about finally launching this site. It has been more than a year since the idea first sparked my mind and it will be good to finally see it launch.
So, the countdown is on... Wednesday, November 1st is the launch date... after that, I think I will make some improvements on PhuseBox...

Fresh Start
October 13 2006
Well, today I got my powerbook back with a new hard drive in it... a great upgrade from 80GB to 120GB... however, my data has still not been recoverable. I do have the old drive though, so maybe I will be able to recover some of it myself.
It is odd starting on a fresh install of the operating system... and with no old files to transfer over... it is much like moving into a new house... fresh, clean start.
Hopefully, this hard drive will make it at least until I need a new system... who knows when that will be.
Luckily all my website stuff was on my server so those files are intact... and my music collection is on my iPod, so those files are fine. Everything else is gone though... oh well... It happens. That's life. I have learned my lesson though: frequent backups can prevent many headaches...
