Sorry to everyone

To everyone that posted or registered yesterday:

I regret to inform you that our current host’s database crashed and they did not recover our database to it’s full size. The backup we have is from yesterday morning so we still have all data up until then but nothing after. We would like to ask anyone that cannot login to re-register. We’re taking many precautions to never let this happen again. I am really sorry and I hope everyone can understand.

Sincerely,

Jonathan(jonathan[at]adocu.com)

Update: yes, they crashed again(30 minutes after first crash) but this time we were prepared with a backup. We are going to take multiple backups every hour to make sure we are ready. Once our dedicated server is set up on Monday we will be able to run it ourselves. This problem was out of our hands and in the future we will make sure it’s in our hands. Again, sorry to everyone and we hope that you will still use our service.

Adocu’s debut

As you may have already found out, adocu was released early this morning. We still have 7 more hours until the day is over and we are already looking at a very successful debut with over 201 registrations as of right now(and still growing). Adocu couldn’t have made it this far without all your great blog posts and referrals. We really appreciate them and we would like to pass a little recognition:

Twitter too big for you? Try one-word-wonder Adocu

Adocu: micro-blog site (Nano-Blogging?) (chinese)

Is my blog too long?

Adocu - What’s your status?

Anyone use Adocu?

(if you write a post about adocu please email me and I will add it [email at bottom])

We are also aware of some problems with the site.

  • The profile thumbnails - fixed, simple error on my part.
  • Different languages - fixed
  • It should only show a number of your friends, not all of them - fixed
  • More networking and status - ideas?
  • SMS/email updating - sms costs a lot to obtain a number(maybe if enough people use adocu), but we should be adding email updating soon
  • any more? just let me know

Some questions:

  • why doesn’t my language work?!?! - it’s an encoding problem and we’re working on it.
  • is this a joke? no its not a joke, its just a different, fun and free application for anyone to use that keeps you connected with your current friends and the ones you will make by letting them know what your up to.

We really want to keep this fun, simple and friendly. We appreciate any suggestions, comments or questions. Remember we’re still working out the kinks and adding features.

So what’s your status? keep us updated!
