Good News, Bad News   (50 comments, 214 views) Wednesday, 11 April 2007

HI Neighbors: 

Bad News first: There was a super glitch on my blog recently.  The problem gave anyone who checked me as a "Favorite Blogger" up to 18 email notifications about my Grandparents Brag Book blog.  I'm so sorry.  

Now the Good News: We now know what caused the problem and it's been rectified and won't happen again.   It just makes me crazy that your email inbox got cluttered with notifications so I'm going to have two drawings for surprise packages.  Sign-up in the comments section below if you were affected.  The lucky winners will be announced on Friday May 4th.

Thanks for your understanding...let's have some fun!   

Jill Davis, Founder


 
getting e-mails from you is never a bad thing Jill!
Plus the book was great!!

I'm glad you guys got everything fixed. :)

I love your blog!! Thanks for sharing all the info with us.
30-Apr-2007 @ 11:46:21am
 
All of the info is always great--and it isn't hard to delete

Computers sometimes like to hick up no problem.

Is that why there were so many notifications? LOL No problem--it's an adorable book! =)

I actually got 24, not 18. :)

Though, I'm wondering if there are still some glitches? Just today, I received a double notice about someone else's blog, and yesterday I got a triple notice from someone.

I got all 18 email notifications and I did think it was weird, but thanks for letting us know about the problem and fixing it too. Have a great day

30-Apr-2007 @ 12:10:32pm
 
No problem Jill!
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:15:31pm
 
:) i got them all! was wondering...
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:24:09pm
 
No problem whatsoever! I'm from a large family so my inbox is super big! It's so nice that you guys recognize a problem and fix it right away! That's what makes this place great!!
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:38:15pm
 
This is so nice of you! It really wasn't a big deal to hit delete a few times on the duplicate e-mails! I still have you listed as one of my Favorites! :)
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:45:36pm
 
hi! no problem here either.. :o)
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:46:02pm
 
I really enjoyed the book! Glad you were able to get things fix. Have a wonderful week.
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:49:23pm
 
I got a bunch too!
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:53:33pm
 
Tehehehe, I just figured you REALLY wanted to sell those items you had used in your book!!!!
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:56:04pm
 
I thought I was really popular when I had 37 new messages in my inbox! Although, they were not all from you so I guess I do have some friends! I did love the book so much that I forwarded it to my mom who is also a very proud grandparent. Thanks for your constant inspiration!
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:56:14pm
 
I was glad to see the book. I did however get tons of emails from it. Thanks for the update
30-Apr-2007 @ 12:56:20pm
 
I was wondering what had happened....good to know it's fixed!
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:00:05pm
 
It's always great to hear from you, Jill. And the book is beautiful!
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:00:47pm
 
It wasn't a problem! I just deleted them after I checked the first 3! :) Great book!
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:02:33pm
 
I just thought it was funny Jill. The one person who knows everything!! The book was gorgeous and I checked every one to make sure it wasn't another page. Don't really know how many there were - a bunch!!! It was really no big deal!!! Have a great day!
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:09:24pm
 
I got 'em too! LOL It was a cute book though!
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:20:16pm
 
Hi Jill! Yep, I was one of the get a bunch of the same update people! Also, don't know if I am the only one but so far I have gotten 4 of the Good News, Bad News one today....
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:24:27pm
 
I got hit, but I opened them all!! Anything from your blog is worth reading more than once anyway!

(I did receive this one twice, too!)
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:31:00pm
 
Beautiful Book!
30-Apr-2007 @ 1:36:23pm
 
That was too funny. I was wondering the same thing about all of the posts. I was just nervous to see my inbox in the morning. I kept deleting them and they kept coming...lol. Well I am glad everything is fixed. I get double or triple posts occasionally from others but this has never happend before.

Oh and the book was awesome. I am actually going to do a couple of them for Christmas gifts this year.
30-Apr-2007 @ 2:34:22pm
 
I thought it might have been something wrong with my email..... my system booted me off & flashed an error message. Oldest DS got one heck of a lecture on the evils of *my space* as a result..... which is my #1 favorite thing to blame ALL computer problems on. hehehe! Got some salt for the crow I'll have to swallow? Or MAYBE I'll just keep this one under my hat.....hmmm. : ) Hope you're having a great week!
30-Apr-2007 @ 3:31:11pm
 
Well...so much for the problem being TOTALLY RECTIFIED. I sometimes get multiple posts in my inbox because of the way my email is rerouted. ROFL

I'm off to visit with "Nerd", our onsight trouble shooter.
30-Apr-2007 @ 4:06:46pm
 
Emails from you - even when sent by the dozens - are never bad! Thanks for being concerned us!
30-Apr-2007 @ 4:20:35pm
 
I was kinda wondering what was going on , I was like wow Jill has alot to say today. In fact every 5-10 mins. LOL Keep the blogs coming I love seeing the new things and hearing from you.
30-Apr-2007 @ 4:42:42pm
 
Here I was thinking that it was a problem on my end. I am glad all is fixed. It is very kind of you to offer a drawing when it wasn't your fault.

(This post has the date of April 11th yet it didn't show up in my inbox until today, the 30th.)
30-Apr-2007 @ 4:44:49pm
 
I was used to getting a duplicate of your emails, but WOW all of a sudden I had 22!!! I thought I was important!!! LOL

Glad the problem has been fixed!!! Hope I am lucky!!!!!
30-Apr-2007 @ 5:26:45pm
 
LOL I had 45 emails! Glad you got it fixed! (I'd rather get multiple emails from you then the other spam i get!) =)

edit: yeah i just got this on the 30th as well...thats weird.
30-Apr-2007 @ 6:33:54pm
 
haha! I got them too! I thought something was stuck on your enter key! Glad it's fixed!
30-Apr-2007 @ 6:36:21pm
 
lol. Glad you got it fixed.
30-Apr-2007 @ 6:54:18pm
 
LOL! Thanks for the explanation. The book is beautiful! Like JenKaMus wrote, I'd rather get multiple emails from you than the other spam!
30-Apr-2007 @ 7:27:15pm
 
Storm:
The reason for the April 11th post date was because I wrote the blog that day but waited until the problem was under contol to make it live. You're eyes aren't deceiving you:)
30-Apr-2007 @ 7:33:49pm
 
I was wondering what my email program was up to now! :) Glad to know I am not crazy and I did read that same email multiple times! hehe
30-Apr-2007 @ 7:54:57pm
 
I thought maybe you were updating the post so that it was just right and we were getting the updates every time you changed it. Not a problem though since it's easy to hit delete after reading it once. :-)
30-Apr-2007 @ 7:56:52pm
 
It was rather perplexing why I got so many of the same e-mail. I figured it had to be your computer's fault! :) Glad you've got it fixed.

Hum...your this blog is posted as April 11th, but I just got notified (via email) today, the 30th....

30-Apr-2007 @ 9:17:10pm
 
I wondered about that. Thanks for clearing it up. It was actually a bit amusing.
30-Apr-2007 @ 10:02:32pm

actually I always love an email in my inbox from you.
it's usually directing me to someone elses My Place & their creative handywork. always gives me new ideas and that's never a bad thing! plus 1/2 of the time it's inspirational & I love that. Have a great DAY!

I too Got 18 emails...Maybe more I didn't count! But It was just fine because it was such a cute Book!!!!
1-May-2007 @ 8:55:42am
 
Awww...we forgive you Jill! Computers are our best friends and our worst enemies!
1-May-2007 @ 9:16:19am
 
I wondered what was going on. HA! I really enjoyed your book. It was nice to see pictures of you and your family. Thanks for letting us know!
1-May-2007 @ 4:46:25pm
 
It was a fab book!!! Sometimes I get multiple emails from others too!! But.....I really got a lot of your book!!! It's nice to know I'm not the only one who makes mistakes!!! At least this could be fixed!
