elzee Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 so, announcement is tomorrow, I just saw it. My guess it has something to do with a better shopping cart option, than what we have now ? I think many of us wish it happens Second guess - the hottest web publishing today - blogging ? some tools and blog hosting ? third guess - again shopping cart... what about Dansie... most versatile cart! 4th guess - if it's a "major" announcement, then maybe it's a business deal with Billy from MS
TCH-Tim Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Woo hoo, second page. elzee, Nothing personal, but I hope it's neither shopping cart software or blog software, as that stuff is all freely available on the Internet already. (If you need help setting anything up, there are plenty of helpful faces around here.) I'd rather have something that brings even more value to my dollar, like more disk space, more bandwidth, faster servers, more data redundancy, etc. And I can't imagine any value a deal with Billy would bring, unless he was going to give us all free hosting for the rest of our lives.
EdInJapan Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Well, it is already 3/15 here in Japan and no sign of the announcement. So, the rumor that Bill is Santa Claus must be bogus because Santa Claus always follows the time zones and gets his work done on time. We will just have to settle for Bill being a nice person who lives in a time zone all his own.
NFreak Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Two more hours for central time zoners. I wonder what time tomorrow we'll find out.
TCH-Tim Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Here on the West Side it's still only 10:40pm on the 14th, but they're well into the 15th out there on the East Coast. Any minute now I'm sure Head Guru will fill us in...
TCH-Andy Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 You mean it's not even 11pm yet Tim ..... maybe we should devise a plan whereby no-one from the west coast of the USA is allowed to look for a while .... or should we just delay it to make sure you can't find out too early
TCH-Tim Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 How about if you announce it now, and I promise not to look for the next 40 minutes?
getitdone Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) still waiting for the news. hum well just have to check back later maybe there was a delay. maybe it's not going to happen? I can be patient. . . . hurry, hurry, my hands are burning. Edited March 15, 2006 by getitdone
cajunman4life Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Alright... it's the 15th... Drum roll please...
TCH-Tim Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 It's like Christmas morning where I wake up at 7:30am just to see what's under the tree, only there's nothing there yet....
nortk Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Hang on a second...don't make the announcement yet...I have to run to the bathroom for a second and don't want to miss it....
Head Guru Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 I saved 15% on my car insurance! YOU CAN DO IT!!!
TCH-Thomas Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 And the announcement is... Nah, we better wait for nortk.
nortk Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Oh...yeah...sorry...didn't mean to make you all wait...all better now.
cajunman4life Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Don't leave us all in suspense this long... *rips hair out* (that is if I had any)
abinidi Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I'm not surprised. Remember, this happened last time with the RAID announcement. Lots of hype leading up to an announcement time, and then a lot of sit around and wait for the announcement to actually be made... That said, the news from the last announcement was worth the wait. I hope this one is too.
jayson Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 So the major announcement is that "there is no major announcement"?
TCH-Tim Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Could somebody at TCH please block my IP so I don't waste my whole day reloading this thread? And could somebody else just email me when/if they announce "it"?
TCH-Tim Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 just unsubcribe to the thread It was more of a "save me from myself" sort of comment. Every so often I click back to this window and click refresh to see if Head Guru has chimed in yet, and so far that's been a big waste of time. If they block my IP, I won't be able to view the thread, and I will literally save hours of time today.
jayson Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I know the feeling, every email I get now is from this one thread, but every time I get a notification that there is an email, I check to see if there is a message from THG. but no
Samrc Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Bill's got the topic open (according to the list at the bottom of the page). He's just waiting to see how many people he can get to be active on the thread before he posts!! So far 28 users on this thread! Edited March 15, 2006 by Samrc
NFreak Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 How much longer? I'm only in study hall for another 20 minutes. ;.;
phatfunkjazz Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Finally...I just got home from work. Hmm, still no announcement. No matter, it's worth the wait just to see everyone get so hyped up about the mystery. Time for a little cat nap, then I'll return to this thread, filled with anticipation.
