The newest member videos are going up in the Members area. Five of them up already. Two are double length 20min videos. Three more are on the way that comprise parts 1-3 of the 2nd hour. Enjoy, Giza members. … [Read more...]

We've seen a couple of concerns about e-mail updates, but they seem to be describing different issues, not the same issue. We can explore this, if needed, but not effectively unless affected users fill out a support request. This gives us the info needed to investigate the issue, lets us track patterns, and gives us an effective means to respond. In the interim, we aren't seeing any functionality with the web site that we can definitively say is affected. Issue 1: Issues with google feedburner subscriptions, which are subscriptions to the blog posts or comments via e-mail (obtained by … [Read more...]

On April 5th at 11pm we added a security measure to block spam attempts, and this impacted our support request form. We've corrected the issue. If you submitted a support request in the 48hr period following that, we likely did not receive it. Please resubmit the request. … [Read more...]

We're seeing too much static and flutter in the posted comments on Giza Death Star. In other words: posts that are too heated, emotional, abrasive, or inflammatory (we have to draw a line somewhere) posts that are off-topic posts that are the equivalent of spray graffiti tagging - near meaningless addenda apparently designed only to make one's own name rise to the top posts that are vast monologues that really belong in someone else's personal blog and not in Giza's comment section - (rule of thumb: if it needs an index, post it in your own blog) So it's necessary to remind those … [Read more...]

The support ticket system is upand running again. Please resume using the support system on the web site for support issues. Note: some folks are still sending support requests to  Dr. Farrell. These are forwarded to Giza Support which then requests that the initiator fill out a support ticket on the site,to standardize routing and tracking of tickets, as well as capture sufficientinformation to resolve them.
