Today I finished my first widget of Aqua-Fish.Net. Link is this:

RSS Feeds

2008-06-28T13:17:00.000-07:00

Today I created a few RSS feeds pages showing news from aqua-fish.net. One example is this:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/Aqua-fishnet

There will be more of them, firstly I must find another 10 articles for publishing. Because the old core worked with the first 300 characters of the article, thus the feed thing wasn't very readable.

Added later: http://www.feedage.com/feeds.php?feed=2179291

New link on all articles/fish,plants profiles/biotopes

2008-06-24T15:15:00.000-07:00

I added a small link to each article, fish/plant/biotope profile on aqua-fish.net because there are too many people copying content from my website without any written/spoken permission. OK, I reported them to Google, but their AdSense accounts were suspended for a while. This is not my goal, of course. So now, everyone who is blindly copying and pasting content from my website, sees a link called "REPORT COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT" on every important page of my website. Thus, I await lower rate of copy&paste. The link points to http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=copyright-infringement-reports which is a forum topic, but it applies to every single page of Aqua-Fish.Net.

Progress with the French version

2008-06-12T15:19:00.000-07:00

Cedric and Pitter are doing good job with correcting the French version of aqua-fish.net. There are still 14 articles waiting for being fixed, however this number is lower than previous ;) .

I am hoping to get all 225 (until now) articles in English translated into French until this December.

New sponsorship

2008-06-06T08:02:00.000-07:00

I decided to support another good thing; bullmastiff-rescue.org.uk. All abandoned and unwanted dogs need our help, so spending a few bucks each month is worth it! I wish I could donate more such pounds.

Next year I will get some dog from the pound near my place. This way I will help; small help is better than no help :) .

Forum abuse

2008-06-03T00:51:00.000-07:00

Recently wwo registered users of forum.aqua-fish.net have experienced abuse regarding their accounts. Some keylogger or spyware script (probably) used their accounts for spamming. The forum itself is protected against spam as it doesn't link to any URL directly by default. Each link is javascript based. Only safe links are hyperlinked directly.

However, if the [img] element is abused, then there is no protection against such activity. This is why users can always report abuse or report spam. One way how to report abuse is this link: forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=abuse-reports. Another option is to click on the "report spam" link which is attached to each post/reply.

New articles

2008-06-03T00:14:00.000-07:00

Melissa and Mick keep writing for aqua-fish.net :) . I also hired Cedric who should work on translations from English to French. I hope I'll publish at least 200 French articles until November 2008. Here are all links to the latest articles (English ones):

Donation for a dog pound

2008-05-19T12:13:00.000-07:00

Aqua-Fish.Net became a sponsor of APB Pets. Their "thank you" page is this: http://www.apbpets.com/thanks.htm.

I will be sending sponsorships each month.

Unfortunately, I sent enquiries to other dog pounds, but I got no reply yet. I wish more people would reply, thus I could spend more money.

Latest articles

2008-04-30T00:59:00.000-07:00

It's been quite long since I published links to latest articles, so here are new:). Meanwhile I had to fire one writer who was copying others' work. Fortunately, he didn't cause any serious problems, so I paid him for what wasn't copied and informed him about my decision. Mick, Melissa, Shandee, James and Tim are still in my team:).

2) Questions posted on fish/plants pages will be answered very soon. We're updating the core, thus it's impossible to answer/publish them now.

Mick is the new writer

2008-03-26T06:33:00.000-07:00

New fish profiles and URLs updates

2007-10-05T05:26:00.000-07:00

Aqua-Fish.Net staff is announcing changes in URLs which mean that the new URLs will be shorter and will be more descriptive than previous ones. This update affects the English version mainly, but will be expanded to the French and Slovak version later.

All old URLs are redirected to new ones through the 301 redirect, so visitors don't have to worry.

Also, the database of fish exceeded 450 records:). The goal is to have at least 1000 fish profiles until the end of year 2007.
