Anyone else have a 1up.com page?

[Gary Whitta]

I decided I needed a place to vent about games, and since my regular blog is for work stuff only and my PC Gamer column is restricted to (a) PC games only and (b) being semi-professional and not swearing and stuff, I decided to set up a page on 1up.com.

There it is, feel free to send friend invites if you're also on the network.

[Thierry Nguyen]

Gary,

An easier link for you to use is just whitta.1up.com.

Also, because I am a company man, I have one as well, just scooter.1up.com. I hardly blog about games. Just stupid shit that comes up once in a while. I leave deep game pontificating to the likes of JD and Toastyfrog.

[Gary Whitta]

Ah, thanks for the 1up 101. Friend invite imminent.

[BooTx]

How can there be two people dumb enough to have the alias "BooTx"? Honestly.

[Troy S Goodfellow]

I have one, but don't do much with it. A desktop shot, my games collection etc. Not worth linking to.

Bruce Geryk has his CGW wargaming blog there (http://grognards.1up.com).

Man.. I forgot I even set one of those up.

I added you, Gary. Maybe I'll even get around to updating it.

[BooTx]

Alright, I signed up for another thing that I'll use for a week and never touch again.

This ought to be cool. Maybe we should start a Qt3 club or something

Its ALIVE! http://qt3-club.1up.com/

I'll be your huckleberry.

I used to check 1up every day, not so much anymore.

[Igor Muravyev]

Wouldn't it kind of make more sense to host these blogs on Qt3 if not on your personal web server? I for one trust Tom Chick way more than Ziff-Davis.

[Mark Crump]

I have a blog on my business site, but like Gary, I try to keep it business related.

I just copy the video game stuff from my regular blog and dump it here.

[Mark Crump]

Is there some super-secret thing you need to do to add friends?

[mlatin]

did you guys all collectively just discover the intarwebs?

[Kalle]

Wouldn't it kind of make more sense to host these blogs on Qt3 if not on your personal web server? I for one trust Tom Chick way more than Ziff-Davis.

It would.

If Tom was in the business of providing random internet strangers with space and bandwidth for their blogs.

I've considered hosting gaming blogs, but not much in it for me.

Oh, woe, imagine the terabytes of bandwidth one personal blog uses :shock: I for one would gladly offer hosting for qt3ers if someone else provided the infrastructure (and by that I mean the applications to control the blog systems).

[Stroker Ace]

Aren't you a lunix zealot Igor? Are you really asking someone else to be your admin?

[Union Carbide]

Igor_Murashkin was uncertain about many things - 28% of lines contained a question.

[Jab2565]

trying to get mine setup, still haven't recieved email confirmation.

[Igor Muravyev]

Aren't you a lunix zealot Igor? Are you really asking someone else to be your admin?

No, I'm asking someone to go out there and find/administer/code the actual program which is controlling the blogs because I already have a linux server (running Fedora Core) that I can administer just fine. But when you are in college for most of the time and working part-time for the rest, it's kind of hard to even do something as simple as modify an existing blogging system to scale up :).

After all just setting up a Drupal install and then telling people to sign up there would be just shameful.

Igor_Murashkin was uncertain about many things - 28% of lines contained a question.

What's that have to do with anything? And where can I find the stats? Oh look, two more questions ;). Maybe I'm just trying to be open minded here!

[Jason McMaster]

I have a gentoo server and the software, I just don't like any of you.

[Igor Muravyev]

I have a gentoo server and the software, I just don't like any of you.

Neat, you got the blog publishing apps as well?

[Jason McMaster]

I've been known to host a guy or two. depends on what everyone would want, honestly. Brownlee uses my server with some blog software.

[Igor Muravyev]

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm up for hosting blogs if someone's there to run them, I think it's nicer then having people depend on a for-profit company ;).

[Jason McMaster]

I was considering it for a while as something I could also put google ads in. shit, maybe I'll actually do it.

[Alan Au]

did you guys all collectively just discover the intarwebs?
What is this "intarweb" you speak of, and where can I download it?

So as usual, somebody else has snapped up the Itsatrap moniker. Time to rebrand, I suppose.

[Dave Long]

Yeah, I have one of these.

http://theironfist.1up.com/

I've had it a long time but only recently filled in some of the game collection thing. There's a LOT more than that.

[Jab2565]

How long does it take to get a confirmation email sent? I submitted everything around 1 today and still nothing.

[BooTx]

Took mine about 30 seconds to arrive...

[Jab2565]

Ok mine is up. pfreak.1up.com

[zabuni]

Let's turn this around: Whose blogs do you check on on a regular basis? Right now I have Jeremy Parish's and Jeff Green's 1up pages slapped into my aggregator.

I'm always looking for another feed.

[Jab2565]

whenever someone gets a chance, can I get an invite to the qt3 club ?

[Mark Crump]

Ok.. WTF?

If I click on a blog, clicl on "add as friend" it pops up some auto text e-mail thingy, I click "submit" and nothing seems to happen.

Am I doing something wrong?

In theory, it should send a friend invite to the other person, and only when that person accepts your invite do they show up in your friend's list.

[Mark Crump]

Ah, ok.

I must be among the great unloved, then. :)

[Daydreamer]

You are no longer unloved.

[DennyA]

Hey, could someone send a 1up message to dennyatkin? I set up the account a century ago, and I can't remember what e-mail address I made up for it...

Hooray for joining short-lived Qt3 fads!
