LetzGoOut.com has been working steadily to deploy new toys for the site weekly. This month, we're proud to announce several of these toys.

 

  • The Bar Photo Gallery: Registered users are encouraged to upload any pictures they have of themselves having fun, or their friends making a asses of themselves (with their reluctant consent, of course). ;^D
  • The Bathroom Wall: Our message board forums are starting to take off with the inclusion of our “Bar Jokes” section. Of course, there are other forums for more serious things, like talking about your fa ...

Getting back on track...

Though it may not be visible on the surface, a number of enhancements have been made to LetzGoOut.com which will be deployed next week.

We've made some tweaks to site performance which should speed up the site quite a bit.

We've started playing with a photo gallery section, and should have it in place within two weeks, and will allow all registered users the ability to upload their best bar photos.

The enhanced user profile system is up and running now, which, coupled with the affiliate program, slated to be launched within two weeks, we are finally ready to make the big push to get bars actively involved with this site.

The event calendar is about to begin development, following deployment of the affiliate program and photo gallery module.

We're open to suggestions on anything else you think this site may need. Please feel free to comment here, or use the feedback box on the home page to let us know w ...

Well, as promised, the contract with our old hosting provider, who will not be named again, or mentioned again after this paragraph, has been terminated. The site is now up and running on new servers, and everything is working great.

We've got some new features that will be rolling out over the next few weeks.

  • Our bar search will now provide a more accurate distance on search results.
  • The Blog has been given a facelift
  • The Bar Search page will be getting a facelift
  • Bar owner pages will begin to be promoted in January
  • Location based ad serving should become available by the end of January
  • The Event Calendar should be in beta testing by February.

Look for all this and more as we get ready to usher in 2008!


The Last Straw with Lunarpages®

From the editor... By Brian Davey on

On 9/11/2007, roughly one day after LetzGoOut.com was launched, our soon-to-be former web hosting provider, Lunarpages®, disabled the site. The reason for this was that, in its initial launch, the site needed to build its search catalog, and LunarPages® found that act to be too resource intensive.

Rather than call my cell phone, which they do have on file, they sent an email to a yahoo account that I had when I first set up hosting of my first site with them a few years back, and had since informed them, on several occasions, that I do not use that address anymore.

The whole ordeal could have been handled over the phone in one call in less than 10 minutes, but instead, took about 18 hours, countless support tickets sent back and forth with absolutely no assistance whatsoever in explaining what the issue with my site was. At the time, I had no idea what the offending script was, and they not only could not tell me, but refused to let me back onto the site ...
