[09:46:12] <upstart> ^ 03Google DoubleClick Mozilla overview: SoylentNews Submission
[09:46:20] <yuhong> I even admitted that "It still needs work (for example on Google Analytics)."
[10:21:33] <yuhong> I think it is a pretty important topic these days.

[20:32:00] <Snow> So I'm bored at work, and refresh SN, and see that there is a new(old) poll. Not sure if anyone is aware..., but that poll has been archived and cannot be commented on. Maybe we can put up a new poll?
[20:32:39] <Snow> I'd like to see a poll on you political leaning. Left/Right/Center/Liberatarian/freeman of the land/etc
[20:32:44] <Snow> or...
[20:33:11] <Snow> anything really. I think the polls are fun.
[20:34:40] <Snow> Maybe: What keeps you here at SN? Stories/Comments/Characters/habit/...

[20:50:14] <chromas> Make "the fresh polls" be an option
[21:00:31] <Snow> haha, good one. I'm not sure what the policy is for the polls. IMO, polls are left up for too long and become stale. I don't mind updating the polls, but I don't want to step on anyone's feet. I think it would be good to aim for a new poll every month.
[21:03:22] <Snow> Hmm... it actually looks like they are published almost monthly. Ignore me.
[21:25:04] <Bytram> Snow: new poll goes up when someone realizes that the current poll is old. =) No hard and fast formula that I know of. The UI is strictly functional with little hand-holding. Practice on dev if you have a mind to and we'll see ‎goes.
[21:25:37] <Bytram> I
[21:26:00] <Bytram> I've got something in mind I can throw up there real quick-like. brb
[21:29:22] <Bytram> new poll ready; goes live at 22:00 UTC

[22:19:11] <Snow> ooh, I like the idea for the new poll.
[22:19:38] <Bytram> \what, is it live yet?
[22:20:32] <Snow> no, I don't think so. It shows up when you click the polls link though.
[22:20:50] <Bytram> nod nod
[22:21:02] <Bytram> looks like it s*should* be live, though
[22:21:05] * Bytram goes to look
[22:22:32] <Bytram> Oh, yeah. I think it takes a while to make it out to the main page. Just have to give it time, or bounce the front-ends, I think.
[22:24:10] <Bytram> Snow: btw, glad you like it. was just off the top of my head. often how the best stuff happens; spontaneously. Now, if I could just find a way that I could plan on spontaneity... ;)

[22:33:37] <Bytram> hey guys... this allergy season is the worst I can recall and I am dragging terribly. Don't know how many, if any stories, I can push out tonight. So Sorry!

[22:39:21] <chromas> You can tell by the quotes around the name in the submission, as well as the lack of karma in the subs list

[22:43:23] <chromas> weird. rehash actually returned the same reskey both times on that story
[22:43:33] <chromas> 24EYp4xLi8Yyy1YgqPXg
[22:44:36] <chromas> Maybe it always gives the same one to an ipid, even when it's been used, until some timeout value
[22:44:42] <chromas> Works fine when logged in though
